Zaccaria monitor surround restoration project

[PaulSwan]

At least one person wanted to know how to fix the mishapen surround problem so here's what I did...

Super stuff, do you have the art file to reproduce it, I'd like to put one in mine, as its just all black. The chap who won the 1 player Zac cab on ebay last week said he would scan his, but if you have already done it, then more the better.

Sure...

These are the raw scans (100Mb) @ 150DPI so you'll need to composite it back to a single sheet.

BTW, do you have a link to the one that sold on Ebay?

Regards,

Paul.

This one does not have an instruction cards covering the artwork, so would be an ideal one to scan.

The surround in that style of cab looks shorter than that in the old style - you may be just be able to move the monitor cut-out up a few inches to elliminate the instruction card and still have enough art left.
