Mu-1612

This is very much a passion project.  I built the stick I wanted, and then after all it took to get there, felt it would be a waste not to share it.  I make a profit of $5 for about two hours of labor per unit, but it's worth it to know that there are other people out there enjoying my design.

If interest picks up to where a lot of my time is spent building sticks, I'll find ways to make it more profitable, but I promise this:  I will never cut corners in the product.  MuSticks will always put quality first.

I also want to give a big thank you to NihongoGamer for a very thorough review!

Some notes:

• The foam padded box depicted in the review is indeed the production packaging.  This may change in the future, but for now is standard with every MuStick
• I've taken NihongoGamer's feedback to heart and the production MuSticks now come with foam padding in every button, significantly cutting down the noise profile.

• Items can be returned and refunded within a 30-day window.
• To be eligible for a return, the item must be in the same condition received, and include all components, tools, and cases.

The internal jumpers allow you to remap the buttons, such as swapping up/down etc.  Additional cables are provided for this purpose.  Additionally, if you splice a three way jumper you can map multiple buttons to the same action (for example both thumb buttons to up, though this would not be tournament legal for CPT).  If there is a remapping you want and don't feel comfortable doing the wiring yourself, contact me at info@musticksarcade.com with your order # and I can do this rewiring for you.
