Soldering switches on other boards
« on: Thu, 16 December 2010, 23:42:18 »
I'm buying a ghss soon. Would I be able to solder any alps switch onto it? I've seen that mod with blue alps but what about the other colors? Also, would I be able to solder monterey switches on it?

What if the holes on the PCB are the same? Well, I can't find any pictures related to the PCB and I know that the switches are different.
I rrrove brrracks.

They're not the same.  I checked this a long time ago.  I suppose it might be possible to drill new holes...
