Heavy-duty switches?

Post by preservation » Sun Oct 25, 2020 7:49 am

Hey,

I really want to find a heavy-duty chrome or nickel 3-way switch tip for my JM - like mil spec level. Any clues?

I love the look and feel of a “CHK” when u flip the tip and it does the dip. No wimpy switches need apply.

Toggle switch?

Dimarzio does a really great one that's pretty easily available (if a bit pricey) in the US. Warwick/Framus/MEC has one as well that you can get from them (so easier if you're in Europe - you end up paying more on shipping than you do on the actual switch if you get it shipped stateside). I prefer the Warwick one personally, because it's a bit shorter and snaps more than it clunks, but either one is super solid and is also 4p3t so you get a lot more wiring options.
