Pickup selector switch
I have a 1980 G and L F-100 series 1 and need an original 3 way pickup selector switch. Who has one I can buy?

I have not been able to find the correct three way switch at the G&L website store. Had ordered the "mini three way" but was not the one for my F-100.

Re: Pickup selector switch
I would check one of these:
http://www.stewmac.com/shop/Electronics ... tches.html
I guess at least the short one could fit in the cavity, but I don't know, if it would fit for the hole dia.
Short toggle switch for 2-pickup guitars
Dimensions
Thread height 11/32" (8.74mm)
Required mounting hole dia. 1/2" (12.70mm)
Required body cavity depth 7/8" (22.23mm)
Of course it would be better to find one of the original type.
Question: What's wrong with the current switch?

Re: Pickup selector switch
Both of my F-100s came to me with the switches cutting out. A shot or two of contact cleaner worked wonders. That was a relief, as I couldn't find direct replacements either.
