Nordmende C-7004 Dial/Faceplate (Item: DG-481)

Better Than The Factory Original

Posted by Unknown on Dec 15th 2018

I'm the one who commissioned this faceplate from a broken original I sent to John in Graphics for reproduction. Creating it took a long time, but the wait was worth it. The reproduction (on acrylic instead of glass) is virtually perfect. The lettering is sharp and in the correct font, everything is positioned correctly, and the clear sections are impeccably rendered. The only thing I could find that isn't perfect was the color match for the upper (lighter) portion of the faceplate, which was ever so slightly more brown than the original. However, one wouldn't notice that unless the original and reproduction were placed side by side. All in all, a fine job. Kudos to John.
