My customer dropped off a NOS VOX Phantom that had a grounding issue and it's rotary switch had seen better days. Instead of stopping at the 3 pickup selections, it spun 360 degrees. Since the original design only allowed single pickup selection my customer wanted this 3 single coil guitar to have typical Strat-like switching. This 5-way rotary switch was the perfect solution. The grounding issue was a missing bridge ground wire that I replaced and I copper shielded the guard too.

Could use some instructions. These just come in a bag and you basically have to take it apart to see how the nodes are arranged and connected. It has a solid build & should work forever. It's very large so don't expect to put this in an instrument cus it won't fit. I'm using it to test different Resistor-Capacitor 'timing' combinations for DIY synthesizers so it doesn't matter to me. For my purposes it's perfect. It's a unique part so it makes sense that its target buyers are small.

Had to bend the tabs down in order for it to fit in the body of a Gibson L6S.

These are basically a rotary version of a five-position strat mega-switch. A lot of folks don't care for rotary switches that much, but some builds, especially mods, just don't have a good place for a lever switch with two mounting holes and a slot. You can often fit one of these somewhere without having to drill a new hole. If you put a big ol' Davies 2100 or 2110 pointer knob on one of these switches, it makes it operate more like a lever switch and provides indisputable indication of what position you're in.

Like I said, not for every situation, but really nice to have available

Works great!

Excellent!

I've used this on an upgrade to a Squire vintage Jazz Bass, '65 Mustang and a soon to be completed Melody Maker style guitar. It is very well made and easy to work with. I get the regular pickup selections plus some new favorites like, both pickups in series (fantastic on the Mustang) and in series out of phase. The latter really nailing the Hendrix 'in between tone".

nice switch I'd be happy to use on high end guitars - some eg wiring diagrams would be helpful for ideas. it's a rotary superswitch and not sure how to translate standard switching layouts into the circular format. No criticism intended here I'll figure it out. Wiring is not my forte :(

Was great in my hsh modded prs

Quality switch; awesome actually: but Stewart Mac needs to make some diagrams available to customers to assist in wiring.
