325 Switch Question

Post by Grey »

Hoping someone can answer a question about the switch position on Lennon's guitar. The switch is too close to the knob to be parallel with the strings (with the right-angle switchcraft) so does anyone know what direction it's facing?

Thanks.

It's likely a vertical switch, like a Les Paul.

Is there enough room in the cavity for a vertical switch? How about on the 325c58?

Yes, mine has one now. Remember, the '58 models/c58 are an extra half inch thicker than a standard Rickenbacker.

The stock c58 wiring uses the standard right-angle switch.
