Yes you can tate the AWSD, however, you have to disconnect neckboard / chassis to do so......NOT the easy rotate mech as in Egret II

At the moment I am running :

AWSD Hori - Hokuto No Ken
AWSD Hori - Guilty Gear X
Egret II Tate - Esp Ra De

Working on another Egret 2 purchase at the moment then 4 cabs is my limit.....

Cheers

It has Gradius 4 burn in 8) (Barely noticeable in real life, and not when a picture is displayed)

Picked this up a few months back, but haven't had any time to enjoy it, just fix it up a bit. Still need to finish repainting the doors and hinges, already did the cpo and cp hinge. One nasty fag burn I need to put a sticker over, and last of all, need a smaller new insert coin sticker to put overt the piece thats missing. Oh, monitor needs some very fine tuning as well, but it looks great.

Might end up trading this for a blast city, but I need to do some research and not sure I want to fuck with transporting another cab, hate to see some paint get lost. :(

I just wish I could actually have a full hour on it. :(

Dammit I am so jealous. My buddy Lyle has 3 cabs and he only even uses one of them (Jaleco Pony) cuz he says he's "too lazy" to hook up the other 2 (Blast City and something else?).

Yeah I know Lyle. I just met him recently. Actually I'm talking to him about maybe buying his Blast City or the Neo since he only is using the Pony. My name is Paul by the way and I live in the East Bay.

my new astro city....after 6 hours of cleaning and touch ups......well worth it in the end tho.....it was pretty grimy....

very slight burn in....not noticable at all except on the cave screen....and even then only at an odd angle.....takes a bit to warm up tho....cant complain tho

how do you guys get pics that dont make the screen look weird?

I would kill to have the Konami JVS/JAMMA converter. You lucky dog. The cab is also very nice. I definitely prefer it over Astros. Blue is a winner in my book!

I took this a few years ago when I first got the cabinet. It has since received new joysticks and Neo-Geo color-coded buttons. I'll try to grab some new photos tomorrow.
