Are these Quality Switches..for a T-40

[Kaden Daniels]

Just wandering if anyone heard of this brand and if I should stay away Its a Early T-40 so Id like the paddles

You can get 2 and 3 position switches anywhere else online for not that absurd price. That's highway robbery.

 

[line6man]

Yeah, that's insanely expensive.

 

[Kaden Daniels]

I must not be looking in the right place where can you find them

 

[line6man]

Personally, I would just head to a local electronics store.

 

[Kaden Daniels]

Whats a good price

 

[line6man]

Depending on whether you are picking them out of a bin full of switches, or buying an overpriced "replacement part" in a package, $2 to $8 would be my guess.

A couple dollars a piece. You need a 3 position DPDT, and a 2 position DPDT. Go to any electronics siite and find the switches that look exactly like that.

Thanks for the Help

what's wrong with the stock switches? they're every bit as good.

I'm guessing they're broken or worn out.

 

[Kaden Daniels]

Yah the Phase was broken when I got it and the pickup switch stopped working

On-line - Mouser or Digikey.

Unfortunately, the local electronic stores are fading away in smaller markets, as seen in Jackson, MS. We drive 75 minutes to the next city (Hattiesburg) if we need something right away, but their prices are higher than a cat's back. So us and a couple of local electronic repair guys combine orders once, to sometimes twice, a week to Mouser, Newark, or DigiKey.

Yes, that's really high for those switches on Ebay. Which is surprising to me. I've found a few good deals on electronic parts. And I always come out better on Ebay when I need parts for my Nissan Armada. There's a few Ebay stores selling OEM Nissan parts for 40-60% cheaper than the local dealers. I do NOT engage in this practice with the local music stores unless they can't get what I'm looking for

Good price, but the OP specified paddle handles, rather than the typical bat handles.

Why don't you call Peavey? They may still stock some of the original version, or a replacement that matches. And Peavey parts are reasonably priced.

...And tell my good friend Anthony, the parts manager and probably the guy that will answer the phone, that Geri O said to hook you up, if at all possible...)) (601) 486-1124

I was gonna suggest this, and they are really good about keeping old parts on hand. I was a little afraid of the price, but I've never had to bandage a wound from buying parts from Peavey.

If they don't have them, Anthony might be able to point you toward a good source for them.

that's insane. more than likely they are fakes from China. as you can see a lot of gullible people bought them. you can buy both switches at Parts Express for $2 each. The 3 pos. switch is on/on/on
