The only problem is that due to the slimmer bodies on the Affinity series guitars these physically larger devices simply won’t fit without removing some wood. Not out of the question, but not ideal either. Then I saw this heavy duty import style switch and noticed a few key differences between it and those ubiquitous and universally terrible switches that come stock with lower priced guitars. First, the cast body which should resist flexing, the key weakness of the usual designs. Next it’s sealed, no giant opening to let dirt in. Finally, it’s screwed together. Normally the PCB/cover is held in place by two staples which allow the flexing which ultimately leads to failure. By screwing the board in place to a solid enclosure the feel is immensely improved. The engagement is sure and positive with no side to side play and no cutting out if you lean on it too hard. It is a really high quality switch that feels great and most importantly feels durable. Review: The best switch! - I've installed several of these and love working with them. Having all the contacts in a line makes wire routing and soldering easier than the traditional switch. And the construction really is heavy duty. The only drawback is lack of instructions, but 2 minutes with a multimeter will show you what contact matches what switch position. ## Features - Approximately 40mm distance between mounting holes (Nickel mounting screws #6-32 x 3/8"); designed to upgrade the cheap and replace nasty stock switches that come with most guitars and basses - Nice durable sturdy switch with metal body - one piece shell to minimise "flexing" damage from any knocking on the switch tip - Solid construction with shielding and solid feeling switching, smooth detents and quiet, no extraneous noise when switching - Body is enclosed and screwed shut, to avoid things from effecting contact points, with ground tags on both sides - Enclosed ball bearing operation. The thick, cast metal case provides a superior base and housing for the toggle and circuit board, also provides a more solid feel to the overall switch when it is mounted to the guitar ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07K663RP5 | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,168 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #12 in Electric Guitar Electronics | | Brand | KAISH | | Color Name | Chrome Plastic Tip | | Connector Type | Solder | | Contact Material | Metal | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (833) | | Date First Available | November 5, 2018 | | Item Weight | 1.58 ounces | | Item model number | K1370-Chrome | | Manufacturer | Kaish Music | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Mounting Type | Panel Mount | | Operation Mode | ON-OFF-ON | | Package Dimensions | 4.1 x 3.5 x 0.3 inches | | Terminal | Screw | ## Product Details - **Brand:** KAISH - **Contact Material:** Metal - **Material:** Metal - **Mounting Type:** Panel Mount - **Terminal:** Screw ## Images ![KAISH Heavy Duty 5 Way Guitar Pickup Lever Switch Guitar Pickup Selector Switch for Strat Tele with Plastic Chrome Tip - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/615dPZLXiBL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I cannot find wiring diagrams for this switch. Can anyone share them?** A: Check out this link. https://youtu.be/7DujKIz9UGU This should help. **Q: What is the depth of this switch?** A: 1 1/4 inch without soldering. **Q: Since lug 4 and 5 are connected do i have to cut the little connection inbetween in order for it to work with an ibanez wiring diagram?** A: There are lots of alternative wirings for which you do need to cut that connection. I'm not sure what the specifics are for that Ibanez wiring, but I had to do that for an HSS Strat so that I could split the humbucker when paired with the middle single coil pickup. It's no big deal to cut the connection, and you can always use a wire jumper if you ever decide you want those lugs connected again. **Q: Will this switch fit a regular American Fender Stratocaster pickguard screw spacing?** A: Yes, it will fit an American Fender Strat, Fender Squire & G&L Strat style Pickguard. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic Upgrade to Cheap Switches *by P***Z on November 15, 2024* Recently I started to notice that my five way switch on my 2024 Squier Affinity Strat was cutting out intermittently so I started looking to upgrade the switch to Fender/American grade.
