Hello everybody,
Just got a really good deal on an MPC ONE. However, the case is gold and it just doesn’t fit with the rest of my gear aesthetic.
Looking to trade cases with someone and willing to pay something reasonable for a black case to be mailed to me.
Let me know!
I’m sorry, I feel like this is sort of going off topic because this isn’t “music related” but I can’t def. tell you that this affects me and the way I play greatly. The decals from MPCstuff feel exactly like what they are… decals!… I’m not saying they suck but all I’m saying… I just don’t think they are up to par with actually having a real case with the color you like.
Any suggestions, help, would be greatly appreciated.

Best regards,
C

I am surprised no one has attached one to a chain via the kensington lock and worn it around... the gold mpc one would make ridiculous medallion. Like flava flav's clock but an MPC.

Just rock it bud, deep down inside its still an mpc. One day I have a feeling the gold units may be rare because people dont want them.

Take back the gold one where you bought it and get a full refund. Then buy a black one. You'll spend far less money than haggling in "hope" that someone will trade you their black one plus eat shipping, plus neither of you will have a warranty since it's not transferable - even on new units (unless both of you want to trade actual receipts showing that you got it from an authorized Akai retailer).
