I don't think you'll find any brown switches with other than a red or rgb backlight without getting it custom made.

 

Your suggestion gave me an idea. I decided to go browsing for custom made keyboards. (I know, brilliant, right? I came up with the idea completely on my own.) Anyways, I found this beauty during my search: http://www.maxkeyboard.com/max-nighthawk-104-key-pbt-gray-blue-side-print-mechanical-keyboard.html

 

It's not backlit, but I think I'm willing to sacrifice that for custom caps at this price. Although I still would rather have something that fits my originally stated requirements.

Are you after real Cherry MX Brown switches or would you be okay with knockoffs?

Knockoffs are OK as long as they're reliable knockoffs. But I would like cherry stems so I can change out keycaps. 

Quote me if you want me to reply.

Are those CM keyboard backlit? I can't tell from the amazon page. It doesn't look like they are.

I seem to have read very little of your actual post, I don't think the cm keyboards are backlit.

 

I don't think you'll find any brown switches with other than a red or rgb backlight without getting it custom made.

That was, by all accounts, a genius idea to have had.

 

That's quite a nice set of options for the money, looks like they'd print in white/blue if you asked them...
