So I had received details for the sale price a few days AFTER the stream. I had asked prior to the stream and I assume these details weren’t ready!
Starting price according to what they sent me will be 250 USD and it will be releasing TODAY at 11pm est and in stock.
The website seems like it isn’t ready as of posting of this video but I assume it’ll open up when the time comes.

[@yang13bruno48]

dude im going for it

[@cantswimrip]

do you think its better than the Capy60 R2?

[@ImCastorTroy45]

Hopefully they have more than 170 units like with the shelby80. It was sold out in 2 minutes.

[@Esuppie]

YOOOOOO!!! This is HAWT! (The moustache man in the top corner of course)

[@alexotos]

AYO!

[@ryanoliver241]

Ordered a blue one. Thank for showing this build man! Just love the look of this board

[@SINDBADJr]

i always love the moment you first type on the new keyboard and the little smile you do through satisfaction :)

[@ethanvanorton007]

order secured! thanks for review, Alex!

[@yamichan4504]

I got mine in white, and it looks great with the added glitter. The pcb and plate seem to be standard. I compared it to the Kbd67 lite, and they are identical. I haven't bought one yet, but a standard 65 pcb shouldn't be an issue for those wanting a 1.6 mm pcb

[@Arome909]

How are you liking it? I'm waiting to build mine this week with some mx blacks. Thanks for info on the PCB

[@yamichan4504]

@Arome909 It's great. I love the aesthetic and design. The board is a bit higher pitched bc the weight is stainless steel than brass, but i didn't get any ping or hollowness. Not a fan of screwheads being so small, but the screw itself seems good. There are no flaws on my unit. Also, the daughter board is standard.

[@Arome909]

@ Glad to hear your impressions and thanks for sharing!!! I'm also loving the design of it. Hopefully they'll release some weight options in the future along with a 1.6mm PCB. Thanks for the tip btw, I'm still looking for a 1.6mm PCB that'll fit that has the same JST layout.

[@JosePto]

I got a Zoom65 v3, and man the machining, anodizing and hardware is not worth the money... This one looks really nice.

[@eddysanti8552]

The v3 the worst purchase of 2024 ive made

[@JosePto]

@eddysanti8552 it's overcomplicated and low quality, it seemed to be good to try all mounting styles though...

[@eddysanti8552]

@ its also very inconsistent when it comes to sound. The num row sounds terrible/so off. So do the alphas sometimes

[@ImOnMy116]

would be great to see a 1.6mm PCB offered, particularly when PCBs are cheap to manufacture even at a low MOQ, but I agree, it still sounds good as is! I just don’t see the point to 1.2mm PCB for a full plated build. Unless you’re going plateless or using a super cut up plate and PCB, I feel like 1.6mm non flexcut is the way!

[@vocaloid_papi]

agree; I don’t buy a lot of keyboards so pcb thickness is *the* automatic dealbreaker on any project

[@TheBigGiant_SpaceChiken]

Are these keebs named after the 1965 Shelby Cobra? Or is there another reason for the Shelby name?

[@ImCastorTroy45]

It's named after tommy shelby from the show peaky blinders

[@danielchoi8769]

Hey Alex, what deskmat are you using?

[@shynnsup8383]

Agh too bad about the 1.2mm PCB, also if they offered copper weight that would have been awesome!

[@SSSQQ586]

Being debating for a board costs 239 but shipping is 47 😢

[@cryodann]

Hi, what is that grey keyboard on the table?

[@JUDE_WK]

Do you prefer plastic or foam films?

[@alexotos]

Foam all the way for me personally!

[@Loser-io8mx]

any board anyone recommends for around 150 bucks?

[@재백이-g9s]

It would have been better if the thickness was 1.6T. That's a shame.

[@CheChenlab]

我要买！我现在就要买！

[@yang13bruno48]

买呗，已经上线了

[@grimsan46]

OOOOoOo!!!

[@JakeWeinstein-k7d]

Whats that deskmat?
