Q&A

More

Q: Where are the accent spacebars?
A: We decided not to include it because adding it in any of the kits will increase the cost quite a bit. We want to keep the cost low while trying to make everyone happy.

Q: R5?
A: Maybe, I’d like to include R5 as a separate kit, if there is enough interest for it. Not possible.

Q: Can you add an International kit?
A: This depends entirely on EU vendors (EU & UK) since they're the main market for this kit. Not possible.

This set has been grail status for me for a long time, several years at least.  Been hoping for a rerun and am glad it's happening - hope it all goes smoothly!

Prob the only set in this year which is insta buy. Thanks for rerunning it.
Quick question: are the led keys the only ones that will be UV, or are there more?

only shinethrough keys are uv print, all novelties are doubleshot :thumb:

Edit: "Led", "Zep", "Rock" & "Roll" keys are rendered using Carouselambra font because the OG svg file is lost, but they will be doubleshot using the same mould as the original. Since i can't get my hands on the file, I'm currently working with Mario to get the "Led & "Zep" measurements for "Rock" & "Roll" keys.

Another +1 for the R5 kit. In either way, though.


And a pedantic nitpick: While Page did play a strat on extremely rare occasion, he's known for his Les Paul Standards, so not using a Gibson in the CAKE60 render is sacrilege ;)

R5 as a kit is a no, but maybe R5 in base. I personally prefer R5, so I’ll ask Thesiscamper what he thinks

If it happens in base, I'm in. Good luck! It'd be great.

Maybe just add r5 to extension since it's already a large kit and presumably most people buying extension for shinethrough are going to want r5 as well :shrug:

at least not me. I would not buy extension kit if there is R5 in it

Maybe having a R5 separate kit will be better. But wonder if it will hit MOQ

Probably too late for changes, but put me in the R5 camp as well. Seems like at least a few people have asked; don't know if feasible in a child kit. Cheers
