Good value kit
Works as expected. The nut was a bit tight to thread initially, but once installed, it functions smoothly. Good for DIY repairs.

Professional quality
I use these for all my customer repairs now. Reliable contact and durable construction. Much better than the cheap stock switches.

Smooth action
Very smooth toggle action with a satisfying click. No crackling noises when switching between pickups. Highly recommended for guitar mods.

Perfect replacement for my old switch
The build quality is excellent. It feels sturdy and the soldering points are large enough to work with easily. My Les Paul sounds great again.

Exactly what I needed
Fit perfectly into the existing hole on my SG. The 500k resistance is ideal for humbuckers. Installation took less than 20 minutes.

Solid component
Great little switch. The only reason for 4 stars is that the included washer was slightly bent, but it still worked fine after flattening it.
Q: Can I use this for single coil pickups?
A: Yes, you can use it, but 500k pots and switches are generally brighter and better suited for humbuckers. Single coils often sound better with 250k components to reduce high-end harshness.
Q: Does this come with solder?
A: No, this kit includes the switch, tip, washer, and nut only. You will need to provide your own solder and tools for installation.
Q: What is the thread size for the mounting nut?
A: The switch features a standard 1/2 inch-32 UNS thread, which fits most electric guitar bodies designed for toggle switches.
Q: Is this switch compatible with a Fender Stratocaster?
A: This is a 3-way toggle switch typically used for Les Paul or SG style guitars. A Stratocaster usually requires a 5-way blade switch, so this may not be suitable without significant modification.
Q: How many solder lugs does this switch have?
A: This B500K model has 6 solder lugs, allowing for standard wiring configurations for two pickups with independent volume or tone controls.
