Hey guys!
I’m Zambumon, the designer of this set. Welcome to the GMK Jamón drop!
If you have any questions, tag me @Zambumon or reply to this comment to make sure I can answer it fast!
Frequently Asked Questions:

A: [χaˈmon] which is close to “Ha mon” .
Q: Is there any place I can check with a keyboard gallery featuring this keyset?A: Yes, check out: https://zambumon.com/jamon/galleryQ: How do I cover my keyboard?
In all cases, you’ll need to purchase a Core

Q: How do I order multiple kits?
A: Here is a guide on how to order multiple kits:
1. When you land in the payment area, you'll find this form:
search
2. You'll first need to select Core, and on the child deals, select any of the available ones or just live it blank by selecting the "No thanks" option. Please, check the “How do I cover my keyboard?” question or reply to this comment if you are unsure of which kits you have to order.
search
3. If you want to add another child deal, but not a second Core, select "No Thanks" under the Core kit option. Repeat this process as many times as you need for the rest of the kits.

Q: Why isn’t ISO a part of the Core kit?A: Historically, only a small fraction of people (between 4% and 8%*) are interested in purchasing ISO. This is because people a large part of the userbase is in countries where ANSI is their layout standard (US and Canada, China, Korea, and South East Asia).
By decoupling ISO from the Core kit we can noticeably reduce the number of unused keycaps that are made by GMK, and make Core more affordable.

Q: Do you have samples of GMK Jamón?
Yes, we finished color sampling two weeks ago!
Q: ABS!? No way I’m paying $[x] for ABS keycaps!
A: There are hundreds of examples of high-quality products made in ABS that people love, such as Lego or GMK keycaps.
These keycaps are not only thick, and have doubleshot legends (meaning that the legends will be sharp and will never fade) but have an excellent quality control, legend consistency and are the profile is fantastic for long typing sessions. This is why many choose GMK over any other manufacturer.
Q: Could you add [X] keycap to [Y] kit?
A: Unfortunately that’s not possible. GMK Jamón was open for suggestions from May 31st 2018 to January 6th 2019, during that 7 month period, when kits were locked and quoted by the manufacturer.
For future sets, like Nautilus Nightmares (https://zambumon.com/nautilus-nightmares/), if you wish to share your suggestions, do not forget to vote for your favorite kits (https://www.massdrop.com/vote/GMK-Nautilus-Nightmares) and voice your opinion on any of the discussion channels!

Q: Why is the shipping date June 20, 2019?
A: This is because GMK Jamón is custom made product, and the keycaps have yet to be made.
Once the pre-order period ends, Massdrop submits an order to the factory, which then schedules a production time for the set. After the production and sorting of all the keycaps is done, the keycaps are then sent to Massdrop’s warehouse in the US, and then shipped to each drop participant.
Wish Massdrop would change policies on picturing keycap sets. Looking at this posting, it appears that one is getting a fancy keyboard with nice caps for $115.
Then you read closely, and discover you are getting just a set of keycaps for your $115 (and one that may need added $$ as well depending on the desired config) and that the pictured keyboard is valued at over $600.
Would be OK if EVERY keycap maker did the same thing, but many of the less imaginative / more ethical cap makers show only the keycap in the posting pics, NOT some ultra lux keyboard that is not included. If you show the keyboard in the main picture, to me, the posting should be for the pictured item,
appaboyMaybe bother to read prior comments in a two week old discussion and see if someone else (or multiple someone elses) have made the exact same point you are now chiming in with...
learn ansi people... it doesn't take much. took me a few days of hardcore forcing myself and now, a few years later I would have to relearn iso. after using de-iso for 24 years it maybe took a month to be fluent in ansi with minimal mistakes (z/y most commonly)... muscle memory in your fingers is easy reprogrammed!
now the upside of this not very painful change is that you can then freely pick any keyboard and any keyset you want without going through the hassle of finding an iso kit. fyi even before converting the software layout to ansi i already used ansi keys on a ansi keyboard.
whtwhtwhtJust Oblivion for me. I really hope that the base kit will come without the Git modifiers or that there would be a kit with the regular colored modifiers that were included in the SA and the first round of the GMK sets.
well, at least for basic iso support with gmk sets it didn't have to look like anything because base kits were always designed in a way that they supported it. as much as i can understand @Zambumon's approach to save costs, i feel sad to see that some people might never get to enjoy this set because they depend on iso layout.
i'm not even talking about NorDE layout or some specific language, beeing german myself i have learned to not give a fuck about DE layouts after buying my first set, but i did enjoy GMK base kits for the reason that they at least had basic iso support.
i've never heard people say "oh no, there's iso support in the base kit, i won't join!" but the opposite is quite real, even if they are low on numbers.
at the end of the day, i do respect Zambs decisions and will enjoy Jamón, even if it means i'll have to use some red- or black-ish iso enter which will not fit 100% but do the job for me.
rob_gerYeah, I feel exactly the same way: Stoped buying the International kits (which ironically in the might have lead to the exclusion of general iso.. :) and was always happy with the default uk iso, since it was always there. And the sad part is, that this now might become a trend, as for example GMK Striker also is looking like it‘s not going to have any iso support at all (see IC on geekhack. granted, it‘s also from zambumon, so we will have to see if this trend is going to grow). And same as you, I also can understand the decision: if there is no demand, there‘s no demand. I just thinks it‘s sad (and tbh, it‘s not even like i couldn‘t live with ansi, i just like the iso enter and having options).
ONE day left on this unique set.
Just surprised it did not hit 4000 already. My biggest fear is that if MassDrop runs another "GMK Dolch Set" Group Buy, the ignorant minions would pile on in without any question or haste.
Sad to see this happen.
I bought into this Group Buy because of it's very unique shades of RED, appropriately applied all over this design. Shame most here on MD don't see my taste as the epitome of Great Design (which they should).
Thanks to Zambumon's persistence in seeing this through, which I suspect that this key-set will be the MOST venerated in the GMK line, that was ever previously produced and released.
Sometimes the fewer sets sold of this Red Set, will always gather far more attention/money than another bland Dolch release, which has now become as common as muck.
ElrickWhile it’s great design it’s not for everyone. Dolch being a more neutral and classic colourway will probably always appeal to more people. But I hear what you’re saying, once these are in the wild I think people will come to appreciate the set more and see what they missed out on. 😉
