Finally after years of searching I have a nice Blackwidow.. I picked up a Gravitar that actually came out of the factory as a Blackwidow.. It still had the Blackwidow harness in it.. The Blackwidow sideart was removed at some point and the Gravitar sideart that was under it is near mint.. Im thinking I will prob leave it with the Gravitar Sideart, since it came from the factory with the BW art over the factory Gravitar art..
I purchased a Blackwidow CP and Marquee.. The CPO was not great, but the Marquee was mint.. I purchased a Blackwidow boardet that puked after 24 hours LOL, but that didnt keep me down.. I did a rom swap with my Gravitar PCB, and I was back in business. Im sending the BW pcb off for repairs..
Anyway I have been playing the hell out of the Blackwidow all week.. I love the machine.. Yesterday I got my new CPO from Atari Scott.. I could not wait, but all other projects on hold and installed the CPO...
Here are some pics of the Gravitar going back to a Factory Widow..
