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.

:yeee:

[Udyrstruidor]

Thanks for bringing back this absolute banger, and for listening to feedback 

[packman86]

Joining this GB, for sure!

[LightningXI]

Can we drum up some interest for R5? I'd be so down for a kit.

[mongoose27]

Its about time!  Count me all in!!

[Dianoda]

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!

[vheissu]

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

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.

[Azernith]

old school set with modern kitting

[whirlwind]

Such a fantastic set, really happy to see it return

[mr_foggy]

thanks for rerunning this banger. I’d be in for a R5 kit as well.

[IMZO]

+1 on the R5 Kit pls...



love this gmk set, instabuy category

[IBMweMissU]

"Caps Rock" brilliant, wish the stepped one was windowed, but obv will buy anyway
Please consider 1.5u Function, or at least 1.5u Led and Zepp

[Arrinura]

I'm down for this set, including R5 kit.

[westway]

Joining for sure. R5 bottom row would be great as other users said

[twitchytheinsideman]

GLWIC

[HubertThemad]

Hmm, yes yes, R5 would be nais. GLWIC!

[MSA_Vision]

Keen for R5 Please consider it.

[SE7EN_ate_NINE]

R5.

[rayy]

we. are. so. back.

[cthalupa]

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

[Woovie]

+1 R5 

really looking forward to this

[udller]

 i always regret selling my copy of r1. it would be nice it 1.5 mods had led zep aswell

[Randomlosername]

Def down for picking this set up! Any ideas of what the pricing is gonna be for Base + Novs?

[LoganFart]

This one is def a buy for me, also +1 for R5

[incrediblejr]

R2, finally! One Control and six Caps Lock/Rock between the kits, any chance a stepped Control could be added to one of the kits?

[ELE.WORKS]

base color is good

[Minisofu]

The colors look amazing, good luck with this set !

[NightFox99]

Yes, please !

[mcmcmc]

Planned Changes
add shinethrough novs in extension
add 3 more novs to fit XT row

No
r5 kit
accent bars & arrows
add more keys to extension
40s kit
dark alphas
international kit

[LightningXI]

So sad about no R5

[OrinNYC]

hell yes

[mcmcmc]

So sad about no R5

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.

[Rassles]

so awesome, any chance we can get an alt red text colourway on the alphas? sexy set

[LXVRGS]

[Nevrest]

2024 truely os the year of R2's. 100% will grab this

[ilikerustoo]

Huge. I'm in for this

[NightFox99]

Do it 

[OrinNYC]

no r5

[Rassles]

so cute

[mcmcmc]

scheduled for Jan - Feb GB date

[tactilesbad]

no r5

this
+1 for R5

[BJW]

When will the GB start???

Really looking forward to it!

[boku]

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

[mcmcmc]

pricing, deskmat & metal keycap added
GB date will be announced soon!

[mcmcmc]

GB: March 10th - April 10th

[busytimmy]

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
