What PCB layout is this? Not too familiar with full custom keyboards so if anybody has any recommendations for a PCB and bronze plate for this keyboard that would be appreciated.

ChespinGodIt's a 65% layout, but aftermarket PCBAs are not going to be compatible with this case. It also has an integrated plate, so short of performing heavy modifications yourself, an aftermarket plate (regardless of material) will not be compatible.

So I would have to buy a Massdrop PCB? Is it included in the after purchase as an option or is there another seller with it?

ChespinGodCurrently unless you find someone willing to sell you their alt pcb the only way to get one would be to purchase an alt keyboard. The regular alt would do it doesn't have to be the hi-profile as the pcb is the same if I am not mistaken. If you do that you don't need the diffuser since the drop versions come with one already. Aside from that you can purchase this case along with the diffuser now and wait for them to start selling the pcb separately which I believe they already confirmed they plan on doing. @Elbert is there any timeframe on when the pcb will be sold separately? I am particularly interested in the revised 5-pin version.

st.izzyYes, the same PCBA is used in the regular and high-profile versions. Standalone PCBAs might happen this year.
