Available Parts

The new OM-84 strumplate flex PCB on the bench: amber film with the note contacts, the interleaved comb and the ribbon tail
Omnichord

OM-84 Strumplate Flex PCB

$40.00

A newly manufactured replacement for the circuit layer of the OM-84's strumplate: the note contacts and the interleaved 12V comb, on a 0.11 mm flex PCB with ENIG-plated contacts. It replaces the dead original under the conductive top layer, which is a separate part. Version 1.0, made from my open-source design files.

It's thin and delicate, so handle it by the edges. Rather have it fitted? That's the strumplate service.

Sold only here, not on eBay.

Handle it gently, by the edges. Rather have it fitted? That's the strumplate service.
