You might remember Synthwood from previous posts. They specialize in custom wood cases for the Pro One and wood panels for various synths. They take custom orders and they now make nameplates for the Sequential Circuits Pro One, Prophet 5, and Sequential Circuits line of analog synths. You can find more images of the nameplates here. Title link takes you to Synthwood."We used a satin brushed stainless plate that is just a bit thicker than the originals. The result is it won't curly up or crimp as easily. I found this out by plopping down one a PRO-ONE and noticing it was slightly crooked, I was able to pull it off and re-set it without the folding. One other thing that is really noticeable is that the original PRO-ONE/SEQUENTIAL circuits (at least the rev1) isn't brushed, but a plain bright aluminum. I find the satin brushed aluminum to be closer to what the Prophet-5 has and much better looking.
We've also made our own little badge which we are shipping with our Pro-One, Prophet 5 and Mini-Moog cases. We don't install the badge, but we do write the completed date and a 3 digit serial number (do you think we could break 999?). Oh! And we *ARE* shipping all our wood Pro-One and Prophet-5 cases with the new nameplates.
We're asking $18 shipped for each nameplate (Add $3 if you're outside of the USA). They're currently listed on ebay, but we actually have a revamp, customer gallery and shopping cart in testing for our website that should show up next month."
You can find Synthwood on Ebay.
