    Description

    Up for buy it now is a Dboard SE keyboard imported from Japan. It is in untested condition and sold as is. Switches are super smooth and most likely work fine electrically. It does have some yellowing and would likely benefit from retr0briting. Caps are pad printed and most have stickers on the front as well. This is one of my favorite compact ALPS boards of all time because of the presence of a split spacebar, color scheme and thumb shift keys.  I never got around to converting it myself which can likely be done in a fairly straightforward manner by rewiring the matrix to a new controller or with the appropriate external converter. There is a switch on the side that has a few different protocols that this can apparently output - see photos for those
    . Only thing I believe it is missing is a decal for the lock LEDs in the upper right.
    Shipping will be calculated based on location.
    Thanks for looking and please ask any questions that you may have!
