Whoa, just discovered a whole new and amazing forum! Nice pictures mate :) , haven't seen the Highscreen brand on Focuses before (they came with a wide variety). Yours is a little older than mine, and still has the DIP switches hidden away nicely under the badge. Does it also have the "alternate" switch at the back? Also, the Alps switches look a little dusty on the inside, is the keyfeel alright?

See if you can get the dust cover for it, it looks really nice on it :) .

I had that keyboard too, but I didn't liked the switches... they were brutaly hard to press :(
But nice and tactile, that was something I liked a lot!

The switches aren't that dusty, but I own NIB keyboard with alps white switches and I can feel that there is clearly a difference. There is only the Dip switch on the front.

I was also lucky enough to fnd one of these NIB. I guess these were quite common. I still like my Focus FK-2002 with blue Alps better.

I seriously doubt that. They only appear to have been made in a ~3-4 year bracket to begin with - and I've seen very very few on eBay, in stark constrast to the 2001.

Love that hatchet for the DIP switches! And those DS RGB mods! Would love to have those!
