Hi Jerry,
To answer your question, mine's blue. ;-) Funny you should ask though cause
I've seen one sprayed canary yellow (and masked around the knob/button
section so you could still see what everything was). Personally, I thought
it looked revolting!
Yeah, the AN1x has a light darker blue finish that will rub away even by
running a damp cloth over the top. I always use a vacuum cleaner brush
attachment to keep it looking new. I've also got a little wear around the
Cutoff Filter knob (from my acid techno days).
Could the light blue actually be the original CS1x body showing its true
colours? Are the two cases from identical moulds?
Now there's a thought. Not that would be too much of a surprise.
BTW. What do these things sell for anyway these days? I just spotted one for
sale here in Sydney for AUD$700 - that's around USD$350 or £250!!!!
Sheesh!!! And there I was hoping for a USD$1200 sale towards the Virus C
Rack.
Phil
