    Any tips for squeaky electronic keyboard?

    Any tips for a squeaky electronic keyboard that doesn't involve trying to figure out how to safely take the thing apart?

    Some of the keys physically squeak when pressed. It seems to be mostly those closer to middle C. In fact middle C is quite squeaky. As might be imagined this is less than ideal when it keeps distracting you when you're trying to make music with the thing.

    Obviously it wouldn't affect a MIDI out recording but does affect musical inspiration while playing around (it's distracting) and would affect a live performance. (Pretty sure music listeners wouldn't like hearing squeaks)

      Oil the keys. Any lubricant will do, even rapeseed oil or whatever you have handy. Taking the keys apart may be necessary.
