They should be the same. I have experiment franken switch, Zaku stem with Blaecks top/bottom housing. They sound very clean, i do feel Tecsee nylon is more interesting then jwk nylon.

Here is a sound test on a gummyOring board

Zaku is not POM stem?

zaku has an extended long pom stem, hence it's louder.

sometimes the switch not responding, for example, my 'y' key, sometimes when I press it's not registering, any idea why is that happening?

any easy fix? it happens randomly

then just swap the switch with one in another position, for example the U key

if your U key now exhibits the same problem instead of the Y key then you know it is the switch so you can just replace it with a new one

There's also KAM and SA R3.

Or you can go for blanks, or GMK Dots or any other meaningless symbols.

Or go for the meme classic

Well, then, as you said, you need a specific kit like this or a uniform profile like KAM/SA R3/XDA/DSA.

KAM Ghost (uniform profile) and KAT Napoleonic (has Colemak kit) GBs are both shipping. Maybe try to cop some extras?

Edit: If you're willing to use a Chinese shipping proxy, KAM Ghost extras are already live on ZFrontier's China only site:
