What Ajax Plays: The GOAT of Clone Hero Modded Kramers

You may have had the privilege of playing an Ajax Custom Guitar, but have you played Ajax's Custom Guitar?

This is your once a year chance to do so!

The setup below is what I use as the owner of Ajax Customs, and I truly consider this an Ultra-Premium and Highly Versatile combo to handle any chart that would come on your radar, with an absolutely stunning looking paint job to boot.

The Aesthetics: 

A brilliant paint job done with Tamiya polycarbonate paint. This leaves a smooth, factory finish and has been ultra durable, even through using my personal axe as a test bench for new internals. 

• My preferential blue for the main body fill, battery cover, and cable guide.
  
• White pickguard with a black accented outline  
• White 3D printed Start and Select Buttons
• Dual Color Translucent/Navy Blue frets for the mech setup 
• Alternating White (3) and Navy (2) solid color frets for the silicone setup 
• Black Strumbar(s) (stock 1/1 and 3D printed 2/2 rake) plus an translucent one to swap in for RGB
• Blue 3 meter USB Cable
• Guitar strap with flames on the outer part 
  

Under the Hood:

This is a dual setup that gives you a plug in/swap in option between mech and silicone frets, as well as rake and no-rake strumming 

• My custom RP2040 strum board, 1000hz poll rate. Designed in house by me, made correctly to outperform anything else out there. Kailh Box Navy for the strum switches, hand soldered with a stabilizer bracket added for consistent strumming and clicky feedback to keep you in time. 
• Custom RGB mech fret board with Kailh Choc Pink Ultra-Light fret switches, and a TPU fret stabilizer to help feel, durability, and accuracy.
• !!NEW!! Custom Silicone PCB with Gold contact pads that pushed the tolerance limits for my PCB fabricator. More rigid than the original boards, so no tape or cardboard needed behind the PCB. If you play plate or tap charts, this is absolutely a game changer. Includes connectors to make it plug and play into my strum board.
• Brand new Start/Select boards with Gold contact pads, they work better than the originals, in my opinion. 
  

Software and Customization:

This will be the first set of guitars I release using Santroller 2 for the firmware. Since there are two profiles for Mech and Silicone frets, this will make your life even easier when swapping. This web-based software allows you to:

• Customize LED colors (mech setup)
• Set your whammy deadzone and min/max to what works best for you
• Set your tilt activation angle (if you use it, if not, simply turn it off)
• Set things like debounce for strum and global buttons (if needed)
• Get firmware updates as either myself or Santroller makes updates. Open the site (or desktop standalone app), and if there's an update, you'll be notified there. 
  

Compatibility:

• Xbox 360
• PC , Mac and Linux (Mac will need HID mode and manual assignment of inputs in Clone Hero)
• PS3 and PS4
• Festival (hold orange while plugging in to switch modes)
• The new touring rhythm game coming in December I can't name here (but you'll know when to take the stage) 
  

Plus, a few extra bonuses:

• 5 Fret Clicker Fidget for when you're on the road and missing your guitar (Ajax Blue Frets, Black Body)
• Screwdriver kit that covers everything you need to swap setups 
• Ajax Custom Guitar Sticker
• 3 silicone pads, 1 with a side cut (I don't cut silicone for others, so this is your chance), 2 uncut. All 3 are the grey pads. 
• ...and a signed, personalized letter from me thanking you for supporting not only my business, but the things I strive to do for the 5 fret community.  

This is your chance to own something that's the product of extremely hard work, overcoming steep learning curves, and beyond all - feedback from the community that's given me the direction to make stellar products.
