AaronPeet Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Hello everyone, I am a tech and I recently had a customer bring a Gibson ES-347 with the 2way toggle switch that coil taps the p/u's. His switch sticks whenever in the down position (coil tapping the p/u's) and is insanely hard to get it back. Almost to the point of forcing the switch. He and I are wondering if it's possible to get these switches still, or if this is a common problem where a quick fix is only needed. I don't have the year on the guitar and I didn't really get a great look at it since the customer was in a hurry but any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleWhaleshark Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I'm also trying to find and purchase the two way toggle switch, as seen on the Zappa Roxy SG and on the Pete Townshend Les Paul Deluxe? If theres anyway to get them that'd be awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
