One was saved from the dump and was slid on pavement on all sides but the face but works pretty well, the other is mint looking but has something wrong with it. As soon as I can get a decent work area together again, I'll combine the two sets into one perfect one, or maybe get 'em both working right and have a junky looking one with "character"
If I were you, I'd hold onto that one until you're more familiar with working on color sets and in the meantime look for a flyback and any other parts it may need. There are a few white ceramic caps in those that like to explode but that can be fixed with 5 bucks worth of caps, so no biggie. Trust me, if you hold on to it and wait patiently like I just said. You will be happy later.

oh ill have it for a while my grandfather has a flyback in the meantime ill replace the ceramic caps Thanks for the heads up on those caps
