ESI apparently not making control plates now. A couple of emails sent past 3 weeks not returned. So, heading down to the basement to make my own. Cutting the little slit for the switch will be challenging but I'm using a sheet of heavy copper so at least steel tools will cut through easily.

The control plate measurements on my 1992 ASAT Commemorative, 1996 John Jorgenson Signature ASAT, and my 1999 ASAT Z-3 SH are: 1.26" W x 6 1/4" L.

My 2016 Tribute ASAT Classic Bluesboy Alnico LE and my 2016 ASAT Classic Bluesboy 90 measurements are: 1.34" W x 6 1/4" L.

Hope this helps.

That's helpful info. The plate I've made is 1.26 wide and fits the PG perfectly. The Tributes will not fit as is, but way easier to grind off 5/100ths in width and end radius than go to the trouble of making one from scratch. Maybe I'll find a USA plate during the finishing process. If not, the copper plate will get used.

RockRabbit has the old, longer ASAT control plate as a custom order. Made from aluminum. Waiting for a price.
