Quality 5 way pickup selector switch

[esandes]

I played a few strats and I can sure appreciate a quality 5 way switch. The one I use now is cheap junk. I want top of the line.

Oak Grigsby's always been good to me.

I use CRL

I've used both of those. I'd just stay away from enclosed import switches.

I've used CRL, Oak Grigsby, and Fender. They all work great. The past few years I've been using mainly super switches and these are great...

I agree to stay away from those enclosed, box type switches. I've not had good luck with them.

Whether you spend $5 for a cheap switch as opposed to $15 for a good one, the price difference is not a big deal compared to the quality and peace of mind you get using the best. Cheap ones are not worth the hassle.

I agree totally GuitarDoc.
I’ve had similar experience with the enclosed type. But, using them is necessary in some circumstances, i.e. a thin body.
Further consideration, every time I have used one, it was noisy and soon intermittent. In one instance I was forced to use a 2P3T on,on,on toggle switch luckily it was pickguard mounted. I was able to redrill the slot and cover it with a camouflage sticker.

I assume Fenders are just rebranded CRL just like their pots are rebranded CTS.

I too have had good luck with CRL and Oak Grigsby.
