Harley Benton Parts Toggle Switch Chrome

i've been wanting to replace the stock pickups on a guitar of mine, one that i gladly use everyday – because they hum like there's no tomorrow.

i alway prefer to keep the original harness intact, along with its controls, connector, and pickups – the whole kit in a sealed box, with silica gel sackets, all in one piece, and untouched, shall i ever want or need to put it on again.

which is where the Harley Benton Toggle Switch comes in.
and it works, feels, and looks... even better than the real thing, honestly.

it sports a firmer retention "spring", with more positive action feedback, and no noise – electrical or mechanical: it's just smooth as butter.

the black plastic tip is a clever bit, too: no matter how expensive they were, most of the switches i chose in the past had an injected plastic tip with a thin edge at the joint of the two halves that make the whole being stamped in machine.

well, the tip of the Harley Benton Parts toggle switch i received is perfectly smooth, no joined edges to be felt by fingertips, and a vinyl-like quality that feels somehow organic to the touch, while not looking artificially polished at all.

its very switch lever has quite a substantial axle, pretty solid, no wobbling, no swinging sideways, no foul play when operated... like it should have always been: point, and click!

maybe i got lucky, while someone else got the jinxed piece kicked out by the mill... who knows? i know, though, that it doesn't get any better than this, speaking of my own switch, no matter the cost of the instrument – this is how they all should have been made!
