Reviews and questions about the entry-level MPC500
By itook4lefts Wed Nov 29, 2006 10:01 am
Hello, my first ever post.

I did a search for this but got nada. Did we ever get a final word on the pad contruction for the 500? are they identical to the 1000? (ie, this time next year, can we expect sticking etc?) or are they like other MPCs? has anyone scoped the insides of a 500 yet?

could someone PLEASE just open up their 500, you're not gonna break anything or void your warranty. just open it up and take some pictures, need to see what kind of FSRs these are, whether interlink or otherwise

I might find some time to open my MPC500 and take some pics.

Any idea if I can then upload the pics to the mpc-forums site somewhere, so that I don't have to use an external photo hosting site, which usually ends up leaving broken photo links in the future when the photo hosting site deletes the photos.

No...they are not built the same way as the 1000. I told you that already.

SimonInAustralia, thanks for confirming this. Its cool that the MPC 500 has actual/real MPC pads.
