  • Parker Fly Guitar pickup switch...

    It's a C&K switch, 4PDT 3-way ON-ON-ON, 1/2" through hole mount...anyone got a source on anything like that? This guitar's DOA with out it and the rewire for another switch is brutal. The switch terminal leads go through a plastic ribbon cable (from the fishman preamp bd) with solder points on it for the switch plus two groups of pickup, bridge & neck, wires soldered on top of that...whew. Parker Guitars says there's no more of these switches in their stock and said 'good luck with that one, we don't wire them like that anymore'...sheez. Thanks in advance!

    This looks like it would be the same switch:

    Scroll down to: "3-way maxi toggle switch, black"

        Glad to help! I've been looking for a switch like that myself for some projects.

        They have a lot of cool custom electronic parts.

          Cool stuff indeed! They seem pricey, especially if you factor in shipping, but hey, when you need THAT part.....

            Yeah, they have stuff you don't see anywhere else, like dual ganged pots with push-pull switches, and even a dual gang/single concentric pot.

            I've been looking for a DPDT (or better) Gibson style toggle for a while.
