I'm trying to put a new CPU in a broken microkorg I bought. And it's just not working. Anybody want to take a shot at it? I'll pay kinda handsomely.
Maybe some advice is in order as well.

Depending on what kind of package it is, a lot of SMD is hand solderable. Is it showing you any leg?
I've also had success with the old "solder bridge around the entire fucking thing and then wick the legs clean" approach. The key to any hand operation is to stitch, or pull your iron away from the part, this will draw material away/off the PCB resist instead of across it.
