Custom Akai MPC 2000XL with Brown Phenolic Bezel & Wood Wrist Rest, Card Reader
Black Vinyl Wrap, 32MB RAM, 8 Output / Digital I/O Board, v.2 LCD Screen & EB16 FX
We’ve sold over 75 custom Akai MPC 2000XL’s to date, we get texts and emails from our customers regularly, telling us how happy they are with the build quality and function. ONLY ONE customer (from the LA area) has returned a custom MPC since 2009; in that case, the customer thought this was a new model from Akai because of the sleek design. His payment was promptly returned, as soon as we received and inspected the unit. Over 80 hours of hand fabricated care are put into each unit, they are fabricated per individual order, due to customer requests.
We purchase used MPC units and refurbish them better than new (as a few customers have commented) using a process we’ve been perfecting since 2009. The build quality is the best in the industry, hands down! Place your pre-order for this custom MPC-2000XL drum machine by Big Noise MPC. Again these units are Built-Per-Order, please send us a message if you would like to customize your pre-order. These units have become a collectors item. Due to order volumes, custom builds are currently delivered within 45 to 75 business days.
