Hi Jane,  I maintain a web site of Pianocorder resources at
http://www.pianocorder.info/  One of the pages there provides a list
of Pianocorder technicians, some of whom still have large stockpiles
of parts.  Of the techs listed, I'd especially recommend Nick Morris
and Randy Cox.

The above site also includes information on a Pianocorder upgrade kit
I've developed.  It replaces the cassette player with a 900 MHz radio
link to a modern Windows PC.  Using a customized version of the WinAmp
media player, it's possible to play the original Marantz cassettes
(stored on the computer) as well as MIDI and ESEQ files from the
Internet.  This vastly expands the available library of music for the
Pianocorder.
