UPDATE: Minimoog Faceplate Bubble Resolution

UPDATE: Minimoog Faceplate Bubble Resolution

Alright, I jumped off the cliff yesterday and attempted to remedy the classic Minimoog faceplate bubble issue. Here is the recap with some photos!

Pros: Looks way better!

Cons: Will never get that 5 hours of my life back, shattered a knob

Worth it I think!

Steps:

  1. Reserve a 5-hour block of time. Does not need to be all at once.
  2. Gather a blow-dryer, flat-head jeweler's screwdriver, razor, and ample patience.
  3. Remove the top wooden frame piece, and all of the knobs.
  4. Use the razor to cut around all potentiometers.
  5. Have at it! Heat is key.

Note: Heat can damage electronics. Be careful out there folks!
