Which sp do you think has the best look?

I'm digging the styles of the SP-404 and 555. They sort of look like props from a sci-fi/anime movie. The SP-505, on the other hand, gives me a Fisher Price kiddie toy vibe, if you know what I mean. The SP-808/EX looks pretty good, too.

yeah i really dig the 808EX from an aesthetic standpoint. anyone got a chance to play with one? beautiful gear can be inspiring...

The 808 has stacks of fans in the UK. Can't get them to come over to this site though, the posh buggers :lol:

nah they went their separate ways, but I heard they were going to record some tracks together for the 10 year anniversary re-release of Funcrusher Plus

I got my SP with an extra black shell, that looks just so tight.

I love the black 404:

am I right?

Oh, and they usually don't sell 'em here in the states.

TAKE THAT!

..thinking about getting a nice custom paint job on my 606. like a metallic green or some sh*t

I'd like to see a custom 606

I'd thought about painting the silver sides orange to match all the pretty lights but then I thought better of it...

i'm painting mine actually, and the only color i've laid down over the base coat so far is metallic green. weird... i'll post pics when it's done.
