Re: Backlit LCD for cz101...

Wow! That was the best replacement LCD job on a CZ synth that I have ever seen. I need to replace the dimming LCD on my CZ-1. Can you reply to the group with details on how you did this and where you got that LCD?

You can buy backlit LCD displays all day long for 3 bucks on ebay, so I decided replace the dim grey LCD screen in my Casio cz101 with a bright blue backlit one. Simple mod. Huge improvement!
