Mike Barden has been repairing Yamaha electronic musical instruments for longer than seems possible! In fact since Yamaha's first electronic organs and then most products since then.
Repairs carried out to all of Yamaha's home keyboards, professional keyboards, Clavinovas, pre-Clavinova digital and electronic pianos, organs, synths, drum machines, expanders, personal recording studios, mixers etc. If the parts are available, it can be fixed!
Spare parts and service manuals can also be supplied.
Warranty repairs must be authorised by the Dealer who supplied the product because the Dealer pays for the repair. If the product is "portable", the Dealer may get Yamaha to collect, repair and return it - hopefully you have saved the original packaging for protection in transit. If the product is non-transportable the Dealer also has to pay the service engineer for travellling to and from the customer's home.
For non-warranty i.e. out of guarantee repairs you can contact me direct on 01483-236161.
Special note: for Clavinova products with sticky or sticking keys, keys stuck or sticking down ... see the special page about this.

UNASHAMED PLUG Most Saturday nights I'm out playing bass guitar with a function band.
I've always had a great sense of satisfaction repairing electronic musical instruments but I think live performance is my main reason for being!
Have a look at our website www.famousfiveband.com and see what you think.
For all enquiries please telephone Mike Barden on 01483-236161 Guildford, Surrey, U.K.
REPAIRS MUST BE DISCUSSED VERBALLY SO DON'T TRY TO email - YOU WILL ONLY GET A REPLY ASKING YOU TO TELEPHONE ME!
If you get the answerphone please leave me a comprehensive message and a normal landline telephone number.
If no reply within a few days please ring again - if a crackly line has made it impossible to hear your number clearly I cannot get in touch.
Mobiles - I don't use a mobile here due to poor signal and don't have any "free minutes".
If you only leave a mobile number I'll either send a text from the computer or ring you briefly to ask you to call me back.
