Hubert Posted August 8, 2017 Share Posted August 8, 2017 hey there i just ordered original electronics for my s-1 guitar, but it works only when you combine all three pickups (not when you try them separately). could it be a problem with the switch or is it maybe the installment? cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The electronics are very old and do not look to be in good condition, even for the age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cycology Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 I realize this is an old thread, but hoping to get some help FINDING the electronics for my S-1. I'm in need of the original switches and pots. I have the pickups but I haven't had any luck at all finding the rest of the guts. Any recommendations on where to look for these? Specifically, I'm in need of: 2-position toggle 4-position (chicken head) rotary Volume pot Tone pot Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub-T-123 Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 (edited) Does the switch have any brand name or anything marked on it? Do you have a schematic or wiring diagram? I’m not sure what brand that rotary switch is but it’s probably not worth trying to find an exact replacement. I’d instead look at the schematic to determine the specs of the switch and then look for a replacement which will fit the existing footprint. Here are some rotary switch manufacturers that you might want to check out once the specs of the switch are known blore edwards elma grayhill at the cheaper end of things you have imported rotary switches from Alpha and Lorlin. Cheaper than that and you’re probably gambling with reliability Edited March 27, 2021 by Dub-T-123 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
