FAQ
What even does “ShianaSSK” mean?
It
isnt really anything related to the design or inspiration
for the keyboard, I just decided that it sounded and looked
cool. When it comes to “SSK”, this is a tribute to its
ancestor, one of the first keyboards with such layout; the
IBM Model M SSK (Space Saving Keyboard). Which also sounds
cooler than TKL.
Will a hotswap PCB be offered as an
option?
No, it will not. We are only going to offer the
solderable PCB to avoid having to make different designs for
different layouts, this is not convenient with the current
chip shortage.
Can the engraving on the accent piece be
changed?
No, as this is a laser engraved signature, our
manufacturer would have to manually adjust each different
design, this could hinder the process which is something we
want to avoid.
If this is not the final price, how is
it going to vary?
The design of the keyboard is fully
ready so no changes in price will be coming from that but
rather from a potential increase in the pricing for
materials, and also depends on what we gather from the ic
form, if we decide to include a carrying case, dampening
foam, etc.
Is black going to be the only color
offered?
Potentially. Well offer silver if theres
enough interest in it.
Depending on the demand for this
keyboard, wed like to run different and more ambitious
colors for future runs.
Will you have a special
edition?
I dont have anything planned for this but Im
looking into making a smoky PC version with SS.
Ne
soundtests avail?
As I cannot provide the best quality
for a sound test well only have a couple of videos at the
channel designated for this project in Rhesets discord
server.
Sound test
Will the keyboard include any kind of sound
dampener?
It wasnt designed with any foam in mind so
the inclusion of it will depend on its demand (fill IC form
if interested).
GB format?
FCFS. All units will be
sold at
rheset.mx
and GB will run for a month or until all spots are
filled.
When is the GB happening?
Nothing sure yet
but we are aiming at late Q1 2022.
Can’t this be an
unlimited GB?
The maximum units number is capped as
this is my first GB and I want to make sure every unit is up
to my standards and doesn’t exceed our capacity for QA and
fulfillment.
