Costar boards....
« on: Fri, 27 June 2014, 16:40:10 »
So which boards use costar stabs? Kinda getting tired of cherry stabs, on my shine 3, they feel really mushy compared to my K90. I used it for some time hoping that over time it would feel a little better.
I know that maxkeyboard uses costar stabs, just not too sure on the blackbird.
Daskeyboards used to I think, don't know about the new deck either.

Not a direct answer, but have you tried to clip your Cherry stabs?

Yep K90 is also cherry.
But it felt more springy than my shine 3.

And honestly, I haven't had the balls to the mod lol.

I though blackbird uses cherry stab also.

After that I guess CM Storm QuickFire XT, ThermalTake MEKA G1 and Mionix Zibal 60 also uses Costar stab.

Max Keyboard and Razer Blackwidow uses "Costar Like" stabilizer that should also feel nice.

I think it's interesting to note that for some reason, I have not yet come across a Blackwidow with a rattly costar stabilizer. They all seem to be crisp, yet solid with no rattle that often plagues a lot of filco's and qfr's. I do know that the BW uses a slightly different bar, and also has it but backwards (because switches are upside down). Not sure if this has anything to do with it.
