[GB] Class1800---A Retro 1800 keyboard--Last day of the GB
« on: Wed, 25 September 2024, 04:32:27 »
Brief info: 1800 layout keyboard with Solenoid/Buzzer or knob module. 60+f row+pad layout top case available.


“The Class 1800 was initially designed to closely replicate the retro aesthetics and layout of the G80-18xx. However, we felt that simply offering an aluminum 1800 would be a safe choice but somewhat boring, especially since there are some similar products exist. Therefore, we added a minimalist replaceable magnetic module in the top left corner with options.”

Just seeing this now -- any chance to sneak in on the GB 1 day too late?

Have you considered adding an option for us to buy accessory copper light pads without any text? So only LED.

I've been thinking about this for over a month now -- finally decided to just go ahead and jump in on this (it's my first group buy for a keyboard!) Thanks for extending out an extra week.
