So although the RH3 keyboard on my SV1 is a little uneven looking, I've had no issues with its playability. I must be feeling left out. The other day, I dropped a guitar pick and by some flukey accident, it slipped between two keys, and there it sits, down under my F5 key. javascript:emoticon(':oops:')
It doesn't seem to affect anything where it is, so it's not a huge issue, but I would like to get it out, and I have no idea how to do that.
I downloaded the manual and took a look, but it seems pretty daunting to go through all you have to do to get under the keyboard. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to proceed without breaking either the keyboard or the bank? Does this mean a visit to a tech?
No keyboard problem? Create one of your own!

If it is staying put and you won't be giggin with it- guess just leave it. But if you are giggin, get it out. Maybe hold one key down and put it on its side and see if it can slide out. Sucks though- it's a heavy board so you can't just shake it and hope for the best- you may just cause more issues.
If you can see the pick, maybe try a post-it note strip and something thing and hard that could press it against the pick. You may be able to then shimmy it out.
Another idea, vacuum hose and press down on one of the keys. It just might suck right out of there
Just don't use any putty on the end of something- you will definately cause more damage that way.

Followup. I know you can't wait.
So I finally bit the bullet and unscrewed the bottom, approximately 150 screws (not actually, but a lot), which in the end lets you take the board away and the keyboard to flop loose, which is scary enough. Found the pick wedged in a corner, took it far way. Total time for the fix, about 1 second. Total time unscrewing and rescrewing the bottom board, maybe a half hour. Jeez.
