Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Will this switch fit my specific Les Paul or SG?
A: This Epiphone 3-way toggle switch is designed for compatibility with most Asian made Les Paul, SG, and PRS-style guitars that use a standard straight, short-type toggle switch. The required mounting hole diameter is 15/32" (12.0mm). Please measure your guitar's existing switch mounting hole and cavity depth before purchasing to ensure a perfect fit.

Q: Will this fit a PRS SE?
A: Yes, this switch is generally compatible with PRS SE models, as many PRS SE guitars use a standard short-type toggle switch with the required 12.0mm mounting hole. However, since some PRS SE variations may have different switch types or cavity depths, we still recommend measuring your existing switch and cavity to confirm compatibility.

Q: Can this be used for a bass guitar?
A: While this switch is primarily designed for 2-pickup electric guitars, it can also be used for bass guitars with two pickups, provided your bass has a compatible switch mounting hole (15/32" or 12.0mm) and sufficient cavity depth. Be sure to check the dimensions of your bass before ordering.

Q: What is the difference between "short" and "tall" toggle switches?
A: The difference lies in the thread height and the required body cavity depth. A "short" toggle switch (like this one) has a shorter threaded shaft and requires less depth in the guitar body, making it suitable for guitars with shallower control cavities or those where the switch mounts directly to the top. A "tall" toggle (not available in this listing) has a longer shaft for thicker guitar bodies.

Q: Is this switch noisy when switching?
A: This high-quality Epiphone switch is designed to provide clean and silent switching between pickup positions. It is built to minimize the "scratchy" or "ground" noise commonly associated with worn or lower-quality switches.

Q: Does installation require soldering?
A: Yes, installing a pickup selector switch typically requires basic soldering skills to connect your guitar's pickup wires and output jack to the switch. If you are unsure about soldering or working with guitar electronics, we recommend having a professional guitar technician perform the installation.

Q: Can I use this for guitars with more than two pickups?
A: This is a 3-way switch designed for 2-pickup guitar configurations (neck, bridge, or both). While it will function, it won't offer individual selection for more than two pickups. For guitars with 3 or more pickups, you might need a different type of switch (e.g., a 5-way switch for Strat-style guitars).
