Customizing your Magfit surfaces

Colors

When customizing your MagFit surfaces, you will need to provide us with the HEX color values that you want to have them printed with. If you are not familiar with this type of color code, it is a 6 hexadecimal value that represents Red, Green & Blue (RGB). The values range from F (hexadecimal equivalent to 16 in decimal) to 0. Here are a few examples:

White in HEX color code is #FFFFFF
Black in HEX color code is #000000
Red in HEX color code is #FF0000
Blue in HEX color code is #0000FF
Green in HEX color code is #00FF00

You will need to provide us HEX color codes for the Base color and for both Points. There are many online tools to help you with HEX colors such as Color by Adobe or ColorDesigner.io that gives you a palette of 5 HEX colors from an image you upload.

“I gifted a Premium Talat, that I customized in such a way as to commemorate a shared experience. My good friend, and backgammon aficionado wrote me to say: It is the BEST gift I have ever received. It is now my ‘go too’ board!”

“Just got Custom Backgammon's board. It is a real show-stopper! When I saw the boards Custom Backgammon.com offered, I was inspired to purchase a unique customized board as a special gift for my niece and her husband. It features the American flag along with the Union Jack since the family lived in London and their two sons were born there. The design is a spectacular nod to their family story. It has brilliant colors and is substantial. It almost seems like a piece of fine art which is a reason why they keep it out at all times on the family table. My gift made a big hit and will no doubt remain in the family for generations.”

“I love my board! They used my logo and color scheme to create a very personalized and beautifully designed board. Mine is made from mahogany and has a beautiful finish and comes in a nice carrying case. The craftsmanship is excellent. The board is substantial in size and the pieces are large and high quality. It’s a pleasure to play backgammon on this board. Highly recommend.”

“I ordered this board last week from Custom Backgammon.com. The team was very helpful through the process of the board selection and options. This set is beautiful! I love the faux wood surface, the checkers, and the precision dice which were included. They also threw in the updated scoreboard. Most amazing - I ordered the board on a Thursday, and it arrived to San Francisco on Monday! Well done CustomBackgammon.com”

“This gorgeous and substantial board was shipped to me in Northern California and arrived in perfect condition in an incredible four days. Amazing shipping time. The board is simply stunning, with gorgeous checkers and a smooth felt playing surface that appears to have sewn on points, but which is a butter smooth printed playing surface. My favorite thing about the board is the almost hypnotic and rich sound of the checkers hitting the wood frame during play. It’s an incredibly beautiful sound, but without the clatter of dice hitting a wood playing surface. I can’t say enough about how impressed I am with the quality of this board, as well as the little extras, like two sets of 14mm precision dice, a scoreboard. Truly a top-notch company and board all around. Thank you so much. Cheers!”

“What an incredibly beautiful board with weight, resonance, sleekly contoured dice cups, and an amazing playing surface!  They also provide top-notch customer service. They will work with you personally to create every nuance you desire for your surface, logo, colors, checkers and case. They pack their boards taking every precaution to insure your board arrives ready for tournament play.  Each board includes a scoreboard,  precision dice, a leather carrying case. Even the unique doubling cube that stores dice perfectly can be personalized. I will cherish my lovely oak custom board with my personalized logo and engraved case. I am sure it will age well and bring me lots of luck for a lifetime!”

“I just wanted to reach out and say the backgammon set arrived. It is even more wonderful than I could have imagined! Thank you and the team!”

“
“I'm entirely satisfied. It is a really exceptional product. I like very much the design of the pipes, the colour of the mahogany wood, the colour and the size of the checkers and also the "sound" of the wood, of the dices. The pictures of your website can't show really the beauty of the product. Thank you so much for your patience, your listening and above all for your professionalism.”
