Your cart is empty.This is a short-frame 3-way toggle switch, produced in the USA by Switchcraft. Short frame toggles are generally suitable for use in slab-body or narrow body guitars where long frame toggle is too long. For example: SG's, ES series, LP juniors, Epiphone LP's. A genuine Switchcraft tip is included. The lugs are pre-tinned for easy soldering. It comoes with one nut. The thread height is 11/32" (8.74mm). A 1/2" (12.70mm) mounting hole diameter and a body cavity depth of 7/8" (22.23mm) are required.

Replacement for my 1975 Harmony Marquis LP, exact fit no buzzing switches between the pick ups with no static related issues good value for the buck especially when trying to find replacement parts for a 50 year old guitar

I know it's trendy to immediately put switchfraft upgrades on new guitar especially if it's an affordable guitar. I recently got a new/old stock silvertone 1478 reissue and was not happy with the switch. It was clunky and frequently moved with the slightest accidental touch.I replaced the original with this switchfraft. The original appears to have been an Epiphone brand and had slightly different lugs. So it took longer than expected to work out the wiring however once I got started it was simpler than I thoughtThe switchfraft was slightly larger than the factory switch so it didn't fit without slight reaming. That's probably more of an issue with the stock affordable switch. The part was obviously a higher quality. The movement and sound were improved. There was no longer a clunking or static noise when switching. Originally I thought the price was high however after upgrading it seems very appropriate. It looks just like the factory switch however I may swap the tip for a cream color.

I've been building my own guitars since 2017. I've used cheapo switches and higher end switches and these are most definitely the most dependable switches out there. I have one that has been ABUSED for 6 years, when I say abused, I'm very hard on it playing live. *knock on wood* It's still kickin'.

I used the Switchcraft switch to replace an intermittent switch in my Les Paul. Installation was straight forward, though I did not like where the ground lug was situated, right between two signal lugs. I did install a short insulated wire to pass through the active lugs and wrapped the ground solder joint in tape to insure that it will not touch the active leads.Other than that, I've not had any issues. It may be imagination, but I feel that the signal level is higher through this switch than the original. Oddly, after a week of use, my high E string seems more enhanced than the other strings, making it a bit "screechy". I don't understand "why" and can't blame the switch, but I'm just reporting what I found.Time will tell.

Look no further. Switchcraft 3-way toggle switches have come on Gibson guitars (NOT Epiphones) for at least 6 decades. They are the absolute best, but the standard LONG Les Paul version only fits in a Les Paul and any of the thicker jazz bxes (with rubber isolator). This shorty version fits in any of the semi-hollows like ES330, ES335, ES347, Lucile, etc. It will also fit all the Epi LPs. Remember, SGs take the L-shaped version.

Se siente de muy buena calidad y es muy cómodo al momento de hacer el cambio entre pastillas

I know it’s expensive but it’s really worth it. I’ve used a ton of other switches on probably a dozen guitars but after installing my first switchcraft switch, I will install these on every guitar I ever play or build.

I replaced/ upgraded the stock toggle in my Epiphone SG Muse. Works fine and is sturdier than the stock toggle in my opinion. No modifications needed. Fits perfectly. Toggle is smooth and the price is very reasonable. I recommend this toggle for a replacement and upgrade.

Malisimo, para empezar la configuracion es diferente, hay que rearmarlo distinto, la palanca esta excesivamente suave en la posicion de en medio no se queda del todo firme, entonces cuando en la posicion de en medio tocas un poco la palanca hace esos tronidos en el amp, olvidate de hacer ese efecto que se hace moviendo la palanca rapido de la pastilla del puente a la del mastil suena horrible

Don't even mess with that cheap $10 switch you're also looking at. The one I bought did not play nice with my Gibson guitar. No sound. I suppose it may have worked if I had spent entirely too much time playing with the wiring. But, I just said forget it and sprung for a real Switchcraft switch, popped it into my existing wiring and was good to go. I should have realized that my original failed switch was also a Switchcraft, albeit a long style. It had served many years before getting too sticky and difficult to switch between positions. The new switch has a very easy action to it. It takes a very light touch to switch it into place. I added my own amber switch tip for that aged look. I give five stars overall because it just plain works and works well.
