Re: one more Yamaha DPX-830 query

Ive not hit that one yet as mines only a couple of months old.
But there are plenty of companys that stock bulbs and some that will even rebuild your blown one.
The way i look at it is if it lasts its stated life that will be about 4 yrs use for me. By that time things will have moved on and ill probably upgrade anyway.

I think there is a EU law which says companies must have spares for 7 years after a model is discontinued, so i can't see it being a problem.
