My new custom stick

    This one had been in the works for a few months, well it's finally finished!

    My friend built me the case and another guy hacked the pad for me, both from shoryuken.com

    The case uses Brazilian walnut, and the stick is a sanwa jlf, buttons are sanwa and top 3 buttons back/guide/start are semitsu 24mm's.

    I finished the stick by wiring it all together.

    This is a picture my friend took previously and I've reversed the color of the buttons since then, but this is still my favorite photo of the stick, so I decided to post it anyways.

    Looks awesome, I wish I had all the right tools to do such a great job with the woodwork.

    I'll be posting up pics soon of my new custom stick that I'm in the process of making, just as soon as it's finished that is.

    Well done Glory! Wish you all the success in the world with that stick! I particularly like the finish on the box, very sleek.

    Wow that is awesome. How much did it cost you and how much would you charge to make me one? /forums/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif That is a really professional looking stick man. Great job!

    Does it have a head-set slot?

    Thanks for the compliment guys.

    In total it probably cost me close to 300 US dollars. Yeah it cost more than it probably should have, but I had some complications and had to buy more materials than necessary.

    As far as the headset slot goes, I chose not to make one. It was an easier option just to buy a wireless headset.
