Sanwa Blast City Control Panel with Seimitsu Sticks

Post by voona »

Anyone know if you can put Seimitsu Sticks in the Sanwa control panels and if so what adapter plate you need to make it fit properly?

Thanks :D

should be either plate 5 or plate 6 in this picture.

you just need to check the mounts on the bottom of your control panel and see which holes line up. best place to buy them is probably the akihabarashop site. or try rancor on this forum.

Cross-post from N-G forum:

If you want to mount Seimitsu sticks to a Sanwa fitted panel you'll have the easiest time using LS-56 or LS-58
and VF mounting plates (http://www.focusattack.com/products/Seimitsu-VF-Mounting-Plate.html). The sticks will be a tad lower than normal, but it doesn't bother me at all, in fact I prefer it!
It'll look like this.

Yeah, what chempop posted is what I'd recommend. I use LS-56's in my cab with a Blast panel and that mounting plate, works and feels fantastic to play on.

that short height would annoy the heck out of me. have you guys tried those sticks with s-plates to compare the difference?

i've got an ls-56 mounted in a TE case the same way as you do, chempop. i find that the shorter shaft makes it easier to accidentally hit diagonals. i keep meaning to pick up an s-plate to fix it, just haven't gotten around to it.

Apparently it doesn't fit with the S plates. That's what I'm asking in the OP. Can someone confirm ?

S-Plates are for LS-32s and LS-40s, they won't fit LS-56/58. I'm 95% sure anyway.
