Wilco Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Anybody replaced or got one of these to sell? If replaced, what did you use? Cheers, Wilco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyjr1515 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Hi, Wilco Is it the round 'stick' type or the paddle type? Pretty sure I've got something that would do fine you can have for free if you want to PM me your address. I'm pretty sure I've got at least one of each type new and unused....

Wilco Posted November 6, 2017 Author Share Posted November 6, 2017 Hi Andy, That is very decent of you sir, but I'll cover the postage at the very least. Preference would be a paddle type to match the other one on the bass. It's a 6 terminal on/on I think? Cheers, Wilco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andyjr1515 Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Hi, Wilco One will be in the post to you in the morning - paddle-type, dpdt, 2 sets of 3 terminals, on/on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilco Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 The festive break has finally given me a chance to sort this bass out. Many thanks indeed to Andy above for his advice, guidance & most of all for sending me a new switch FOC - top bloke. The bass is now fully operational as it should be & I love it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sooo pleased to have another one & fortunate that it's in such good condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 I'm told that these are relatively heavy, but since it was my first bass I had nothing to measure it against. I've always wanted to find a neck through model (11a or 111a) with headstock damage which could be converted to headless. Wouldn't want to destroy a perfectly good bass just to do the conversion though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
