Quoted from DaveH:This is really hard to photograph. In most of the playfield, you can see the grain of the wood. In some areas it's a bit rough to the touch. I hadn't really expected that, and I'll admit, it's a bit disappointing. I've had a ghosted playfield in the past (which was why I said I'd never buy another and why I'm a hypocrite for buying this). But I'll just ignore it for now.
Stern quality has really gone south and I'm seeing it all the time. The wood grain on your playfield is horrible. My friend has a GOT and an Aerosmith with those same garbage wood grain lines! After a few hundred plays I don't notice it becoming any worse, but I hate the way it looks. How has your playfield been holding up at this point?
