Title: Black Filco MJ2 TKL case for White one
Post by: lightsout714 on Wed, 15 February 2012, 09:24:36

Wondering if anyone wants to swap their white filco case for my black one. My board is hardly used. Has maybe 8 hours on it. Case is perfect. It has brown switches. I would also consider a straight up trade with someone with a like new white filco with browns.

Would prefer just doing the case. Not looking to sell this or for anything else beyond what I have listed. Thanks.

Damn it looks pretty gray/cream there. Hard to get an accurate pic of what it looks like. Do you know if its as off white as the Leo?

Heh, it's not mine I just remember seeing it before. I do believe the Filco is more off-white than Leos though.

Hehe those are the pics I posted before when someone wanted a comparison of white PBT caps vs filco's white. Those aren't mine though, I forgot where I got that pic. Filco/Leopold's white is more like dirty white. If you're expecting pure white to match PBT caps, you'll be disappointed. placebo guy's pic looks about right, although the light is a bit dim.

Oh wow. Sad that my Asus transformer has better colors then my Asus 23" LCD. It really is a big difference. Looks pretty much like the Leo which I wasn't a huge fan of.

leopold has more of a greyish tint.

the PLU ML-87 is a much brighter white i believe. i think i remember seeing it next to a white filco and laughing at the filco cause it looks like clam chowder.

the plu-87 case should work with filco innards. fits a phantom as well.

I wish the white filco looked like that ducky. Kind of feels like a downgrade though to go to a ducky. If I could even find it.

You and me both.  I think Filco would've sold more white keyboards if they were that color.
