Arnie -

Not really. Originals were a black with a brownish cast to it, but unfortunately didn't hold up very well. There have been a few 'procedures' for repairing the paint, with 'some' success. They later went to another paint (non-sticky) which was more black than anything else.

Drake sold replacement cabinet covers late in production that WERE just semi-flat black, similar to the 4 Series cabinets. I don't know if any were new units originally shipped with the black cabinets, but all the replacements cabinets were black.

If a TR-7 is in good condition, the black cover would make no difference to me.
