No Bull eye mod :-(

Post by Dr. O »

Got my sp404sx for 2 days now, and love it!
As I was reading here about customizing it, I couldent resist and screwed the hole thing apart. Unfortunatly, there is no way to take the Roland and BPM text away in the bulls eye, because its like a lens made from 2 layers, one laser engraved, and somehow weldet together. Its like one piece, have a look:

However, in the coming weeks, I will customize some other things which you might be interested.
Stay tuned :-)

That's the weirdest thing. My eye definitely has the Roland and BPM text screened on the very back of it. I found this out because I accidentally scratched it. I may be tripping though. I'm getting pretty stoked on mods popping up all over, it's about time people just said fuck it and made their machine their own. They're cheap enough used to not make it that big of a deal. Show us some pics when you're done!

Edit: I just read that you have a 404sx. That would explain the differences.

Well, I dont mind that the Roland logo is there. I have been using Roland products for many many years, and to me they have a good sence of interface logic.
I mean, I am using the sp 404sx now for maybe 5 hours, and I feel home allready :-)

I gotta agree with crailtapper - great to see so many mods happening! nothing like ripping the guts out of a box and personalising it

Dr. O - take more photos! i'd love to see all the various components and what goes on in the 404
