Title: The Giggity Delay, my refinished, restored, and highly recombobulated DD-20
Post by: fdesalvo on May 28, 2015, 12:23:46 AM
Everyone has a DD-20.  Mine's been around the world 5 times and has seen better days.  I decided to embark upon a little journey. 

1. Replace 80's tech LEDs with newer, clear units
2. Clean and inspect both boards
3. Refinish
4. Reassemble
5. Rock

Removed plates and cleaned adhesive from backs

Painted - removed and cleaned all rubber bumpers and replaced grommets/oiled pins - feels new!

What's left to do:
1. Replace remaining LEDs
2. Modify LCD screen Back lighting.
