Good quality, easy install
Installed this on my project guitar. Soldering was straightforward. The only reason for 4 stars is that the tip feels slightly lighter than the original Fender part, but it works great.

Great spare part
I keep a few of these in my gig bag just in case. They are reliable and affordable. Never had one fail on me during a set.

Decent but tight fit
The switch works fine electrically, but the nut was a bit difficult to tighten without scratching the finish. Make sure you use a cloth when installing.

Smooth operation
No crackling or signal loss when switching positions. The contacts seem very clean right out of the box. Highly recommend for budget repairs.

Perfect replacement for my Strat copy
The switch feels solid and the clicking action is crisp. It fit perfectly into the existing pickguard hole without any modification needed. Great value for the price.
Q: Will this fit a standard Telecaster guitar?
A: This switch is primarily designed for 5-way Stratocaster-style configurations. While it may physically fit a Telecaster cavity, a standard Tele usually requires a 3-way blade switch. Please check your specific wiring needs before purchasing.
Q: Can I use this for a humbucker/single-coil mix?
A: Yes, this 5-way switch is compatible with various pickup configurations including HSS (Humbucker-Single-Single) setups commonly found on Super Strat guitars.
Q: What is the thread size for the mounting nut?
A: It uses a standard metric thread common in most imported guitar components, typically fitting a 10mm hole. It includes a matching nut and washer in the package.
Q: Is the white tip removable if I want to use a different color?
A: Yes, the plastic tip screws onto the metal shaft and can be removed. You can replace it with a different colored tip if you have a compatible replacement.
Q: Does this come with the soldering lugs pre-tinned?
A: The terminals are clean and ready for soldering, but we recommend applying fresh solder to ensure the best connection for your specific setup.
