I think it is mostly because it is a thin veneer covering where the black border overpowers the wood.if a solid piece maybe the effect would be a lot better (wood cigar boxes ). To dress thisa one up and bring focus back to the veneer you could try "gloss" polyurethane or "bar top" finish in three maybe four coats sanded with #220 between all but the final coat which should be with #000 steel wool

You really must have been bored ! What next some Paisley patterns ,cheesecloth ? That green LED is sooooooooooooo in keeping with the 70's theme....... I guess this little amp is best suited to early Abba,naff Disco and that ching/ching sound so often heard in the background of 70's porn movies ( the ones where the blokes have gringo mustaches !)

Right out of yellow LEDs and black screws at the mo so have replaced the green LED with Red and swapped the alu knob for a more inkeeping black alu one. Whatever it looks like doesn't really matter as it sounds utterly heavenly and is one of the very very few (if any) MKlll's in existence. Considering White Noise closed its doors today I doubt there'll be many more appearing Can always be recased at a later date (I just had to use that black Hammond for something!) maybe in an exotic audiokit.it Galaxy enclosure or something. For the time being she's singing away merrily inside the humble Hammond ;D ALPS RK27 AD 843 in rail splitter and amp channels Panasonic FM Wima MKS4 Gold plated head out Gold plated teflon insulated RCA sockets BNC power socket No output capacitors No input capacitors DC offset 0.02mV L/H 0.00mV R/H
