Hi Everyone

I've got an EII+ that's fully functional, but is now starting to look a bit tired and bruised.  The 
backlight's gone and i've got a replacement for that to do, but i'm looking to do a good paint 
job on the outer casing.  Has anyone done this before, and if so, have they tried to emulate 
(sorry for the pun) the original paint colour, or have they done something radically different.  

I'm also looking to sort out the push buttons too, as they're slightly sticky at times.  Has 
anyone also done some work on theses.

I've taken the EII out on a couple of gigs, and i'd really like this baby to have a nice shiny new 
look.

Thanks

Simon

Hi Sim

  first, excuses for my crap english.I think is a great idea to re-paint the EII+. Just be sure that BEFORE applying the color-whatever it is-, the plastic need  preparing with something -I think it is a special spray, or a special solution- and after that you can paint  the e-mu, and the color will resist for a long time.Don't forget to protect very good the parts around the pitch bands, and the big one with the functions. Good luck. I hope that you can put some pictures with it after that.

A buddy from the EIII forum has done that (in black).

Looks weird, I personally wouldn't do it.
Rather let the look tell its own personal 'story'  ;)

It looks strange in black. Blue is its color. Very nice and good visual impact, positive and deep , or intense, is the original EII color. I personally will chose always THE BLUE.

I like it Cristea. The red LEDs probably look great with the black. I
copied your picture to the photos section (I hope you dont mind).

Anyone interested in painting his?  ;)
