Hello ladies and gentlemen, it is my first post on DT and honestly I am totally a rookie for og collection. I started my collection from Jan or Feb and I am going to contribute my first post to a rare find G80-3049SFH or named “FREEZE”.
There is not a lot of information about this keyboard, my guess would be a tailor design for a specific Asian company. It has several different versions, in another word, I’ve never seen two sets of “Freeze” in same version. The one I found is og cherry double shot+dyesub engraved with red pigment.
Other version I saw online:
What is interesting was that I was asking about this set several weeks ago with pho and just one week or two later, I got luck finding this set. Luckily, I have most keys safe and sound but the loss of F1 and F2 is still annoying.
From the look of PCB, I guess the case should be regular 3000 case. And as you can tell from the color, the most interesting part apart from the subtitle of some keys is that the typewriter keys are doubleshot but the rest of the keys are dyesubs. And honestly that is the most difficult part for me to decide whether I should rectorate the yellow color as I do not know if the hydrogen peroxide would damage the red color(Please give me some advice!).
Overall, I am super satisfied for this set even though with the loss of F1 and F2, and I am planning to user laser engraving on a og dyesub and fill it with red propylene. Hope I could success.
Last but not least, obviously I am new and totally a rookie, and I am open to any talk about cherry og stuff!
