You cannot really improve on ducky except for maybe Das or Filco. Otherwise the only other solid TKL keyboard I know is solid is the CM Storm quickfire TK

The ducky shine 3 is one of the best keyboards out there, why do you want to upgrade? Also there is nothing I would upgrade to from that anyway.

After the Ducky any "improvements" are just aesthetic preferences really.

Although some might argue that something like a Happy Hacking keyboard with Topre switches would still be an upgrade.
