  • Yet another "new" switch.

    Again, maybe everyone already knows about this, but if not . . . here's a "skinny" Superswitch. I've never seen this before. Could allow a Superswitch to be used in tight places.

    Provides the most flexibility of any 5-way switch on the market. Narrow design fits Telecasters as well as Stratocasters.

        Not bad, not bad at all. Yet, the Schaller M-switch is even smaller, so why go for this instead of the schaller?

          It's a fine point, but the Schaller contacts are under a cover. You need to use their diagrams. This one allows you (me) to figure it out.

          That probably wasn't a good argument.

            yea I needed a shorter one not a thinner one a while back

            the m-switch looked good but was half the price of the guitar

              I think I have more than one guitar, where the CTS pots, and Switchcraft switch, cost more than the guitar. And no regrets. I love 'em.

                That's a nice looking switch. I like the quality of that brand. The only megaswitch I have an used is Type E from Stewmac. Works fine and I was able to get the switching options I wanted. I have to say, I've never had a Oak-Grigsby lever switch fail.

                  No, the M switch is also a 4 pole switch that allows you the exact same wirings as this one.

                      That looks great. But as was said, the height is the main problem with superswitches not the width. Also, at $23 I'm not inclined to use it.

                        ok so the front only shows the twelve contacts

                        I imagine the other twelve are on the back of the wafer when you flip it over?
