She's holographic, fading from purple to teal.
**SonSeelye custom!**
In the sunlight it looks CRAZY.
Still waiting on my black jog wheel (paid for, but not yet shipped), and I'm gonna get a black cursor.
Thinking about installing purple leds. Mybe a white LCD.

Anyway, I'm putting up new ones when it's not rainy and I have a digital cam instead of my crappy phone cam.

Yup... Mothaphukas told me 4 to 6 weeks. :lol:

Nobody has it... I would of paid more dough to buy from VST or MPCStuff but nobody has it. Not even Akai, which is where I normally buy my parts. They are waiting on the Japanese manufactures to make it and ship it out.

I just bought the black data wheel, black cursor, black pads, black knobs from the 5000 and I painted a all the buttons besides the clear ones.

The paint job I did on the buttons came out dope. You just have to wait... Nothing really amazing but its dope i think.
I been wanting to post pics to alteast the work I have done but Id rather wait till Im 100%.

Yeah I been told that a few times alreay...
But Im not a fan of that shiney look. I like the satin/ matted finish it already has. If anything I want the white and red info layers in green but the only way I know how to do that is a great paint job or styleflip.

True... But glow in the dark paint only looks dope in the dark. In the light it looks like crap. :lol:

Theres one thing that keeps me from painting my case and thats the satin section on the pads and then how it switches to the matted part. I like that... I think its dope.
