My guitar’s cavity isn’t very deep, and the Fender switch I tried wouldn’t even fit—it was way too big. This KAISH switch slid right in with no issues, super easy to install. Feels just as solid as the Fender too. The clicks are nice and sturdy, so you really feel each pickup engage—none of that loose or mushy feeling. Comes with three plastic tips too, which is a nice bonus. If you’ve got a Strat-style guitar with a shallow cavity, this is a way better fit than the Fender, works perfectly, and doesn’t require any extra carving. Highly recommend. Review: Fantastic Upgrade to Cheap Switches - Recently I started to notice that my five way switch on my 2024 Squier Affinity Strat was cutting out intermittently so I started looking to upgrade the switch to Fender/American grade. The only problem is that due to the slimmer bodies on the Affinity series guitars these physically larger devices simply won’t fit without removing some wood. Not out of the question, but not ideal either. Then I saw this heavy duty import style switch and noticed a few key differences between it and those ubiquitous and universally terrible switches that come stock with lower priced guitars. First, the cast body which should resist flexing, the key weakness of the usual designs. Next it’s sealed, no giant opening to let dirt in. Finally, it’s screwed together. Normally the PCB/cover is held in place by two staples which allow the flexing which ultimately leads to failure. By screwing the board in place to a solid enclosure the feel is immensely improved. The engagement is sure and positive with no side to side play and no cutting out if you lean on it too hard. It is a really high quality switch that feels great and most importantly feels durable. ## Features - Approximately 40mm distance between mounting holes (Nickel mounting screws #6-32 x 3/8"); designed to upgrade the cheap and replace nasty stock switches that come with most guitars and basses - Nice durable sturdy switch with metal body - one piece shell to minimise "flexing" damage from any knocking on the switch tip - Solid construction with shielding and solid feeling switching, smooth detents and quiet, no extraneous noise when switching - Body is enclosed and screwed shut, to avoid things from effecting contact points, with ground tags on both sides - Enclosed ball bearing operation. The thick, cast metal case provides a superior base and housing for the toggle and circuit board, also provides a more solid feel to the overall switch when it is mounted to the guitar ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B07K66SL8T | | Best Sellers Rank | #2,806 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #18 in Electric Guitar Electronics | | Brand Name | KAISH | | Circuit Type | series_parallel | | Color | 3 Plastic Tips | | Connector Type | Screw | | Contact Material | Brass | | Contact Type | Normally Open | | Control Type | 5-way switch | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (846) | | Item Weight | 0.05 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | Kaish Music | | Material Type | Metal | | Model | K1370-3Tip | | Mounting Type | Panel Mount | | Number of Positions | 5 | | Operation Mode | ON-OFF-ON | | Part Number | 7539545991 | | Switch Type | Toggle | | Terminal | Screw | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** KAISH - **Contact Material:** Brass - **Material:** Metal - **Mounting Type:** Panel Mount - **Terminal:** Screw ## Images ![KAISH Heavy Duty 5 Way Guitar Pickup Lever Switch Selector Switch for Strat Tele with 3 Plastic Tips - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41sfrJFXABL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I cannot find wiring diagrams for this switch. Can anyone share them?** A: Check out this link. https://youtu.be/7DujKIz9UGU This should help. **Q: What is the depth of this switch?** A: 1 1/4 inch without soldering. **Q: Since lug 4 and 5 are connected do i have to cut the little connection inbetween in order for it to work with an ibanez wiring diagram?** A: There are lots of alternative wirings for which you do need to cut that connection. I'm not sure what the specifics are for that Ibanez wiring, but I had to do that for an HSS Strat so that I could split the humbucker when paired with the middle single coil pickup. It's no big deal to cut the connection, and you can always use a wire jumper if you ever decide you want those lugs connected again. **Q: Will this switch fit a regular American Fender Stratocaster pickguard screw spacing?** A: Yes, it will fit an American Fender Strat, Fender Squire & G&L Strat style Pickguard. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Quality Switch – Easier Fit Than Fender in My Strat Copy *by J***P on March 11, 2026* Picked up this KAISH 5 Way Guitar Pickup Switch for my Strat copy, and it’s awesome.
