Why I don't give estimates...

... 'cause you never know what you'll encounter inside.
Like a mouse house:

It's the little known MickeyMoog. The MinieMoog has few pots on it :).

Looks like it could be a Prophet or Prodigy.

Now that's just Goofy, Brian G. :lol:

It could be a Prodigy, now that I look closer. Never actually seen a Prophet up close, except for a newer one. :?

It's a Mini that came with a Mickey AND a house for the mouse. :lol: And it's a mess! :shock: Where does one even START with such a project. I have ADD, so I'm not sure where the beginning is. Take out the nest, then what?

Was the mouse still in there when you opened it up?

Oh geez! That's horrifing! How could some one let that happen? I don't care if you let mice live inside you or your home. But don't do that to your synths, specially a mini!

Well I always wondered how you managed to adequately dodge estimate requests.

(You should just say you don't give estimates cause you make people think you are uber expensive lol.)

Hey those pics definately prove that Mice are smart. If I was a mouse Id rather live in a Moog.

Must have come in thru the bottom edge of kybd, I measured mine and the space is about 10mm...plenty of room for a mouse.

I think there wasa post before about mice being able to roost inside a prodigy. SOmeone mentioned that there was a wooden block on other models that seperated the underbelly of the keybed from the electronics cavity.

Aparently mice in prodigies were problems?

They are so uncivillized. Picking a Moog to live in shows good taste but crapping all over the place inside one kindof sucks.
