Sweet!
That in the studio and a 500 in hand must be all you'll ever need!

ok, i still gotta do the fader, vol. and record knobs, those were rit dyed, i think painting the buttons and knobs looks way better then dye,. sorry for the shitty pictures...

well the way the text is on is it is a styleflip skin that i designed, you can design your own.. i do want to get another faceplate and paint it, almost like sonseelye did his, get the text screen printed on, then clear coat over it, i mean you could just paint in and get a clear skin with the text, but i think it would look better with the printed on text and the clear coat,... just my 2 cents
