6-Way Oak Grigsby Switch for Stratocaster

[GreatOz]

Has anyone tried one of these 6 way switches from Oak Grigsby?

https://reverb.com/item/16041785-6-...6jjPKfPeDiqLBoCAUkQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds&pla=1

Will they fit in a standard 5 way slot or does the slot need to be slightly bigger to fit?

Thanks,
GreatOz

It does not appear so. Just eyeballing it, that looks like it will fit. See if you can find one somewhere else, there might be reviews that mention your same question.

I contacted them about whether or not it would fit, and they said it likely would, but that it is dependent on the electronic setup for that instrument.

They did say that it is designed to fit in a normal 5-way slot.

What's weird is that mod garage said that it wouldn't, so we'll see.

It looks the same as the 5 way
How is it wired
What is the extra function?

Basically, the extra setting for another pickup combination or a shifter, or really any circuit you design. In my case, I am going to use it as a pickup combination for Neck + Bridge for a pseudo Tele-sh tone.

I think this link has more details.
