Our Company

      VST was started by David Segimoto in 1986 when AKAI closed its Regional Service Center. The company was formed to create an AKAI Service Center in the greater Los Angeles area. Although originally located in Alhambra, expansion of the business caused a move to its Pasadena location in 1991. Since its formation, VST has expanded the expertise of its technicians to include products from various manufacturers. The company is currently a warranty authorized service center for Teac/Tamscam™, Roland™, Fender™, JBL™, Soundcraft™, Allen & Heath™, Korg™,  Rane™, Kawai™, Vestax™, Yamaha™, AKAI™, and many more.  See the full list in the repair section.

Our staff members have been trained by manufacturers such as Alesis™, AKAI, Roland, and JBL in order to better service machines produced by those companies. The varied knowledge of VST's service department has attracted clients such as the personal studios of Stevie Nicks, Billy Idol, Jeff Baxter, and Michael McDonald. VST has also recently provided technical support and repair for the Wallflowers, KORN, Marilyn Manson, MTV™, Paramount™, Island Records™, and KFI Radio™, Beyonce, The Pharcyde, Living Legends, and The Crown City Rockers.
