Allparts EP-4928-023 10mm Momentary Kill Switch - Black

The IDO Super M 10MM kill switch is perfect for the player that doesn't want to make a major modification to his or her guitar.  This is the perfect size to replace a standard 3/8" potentiometer with NO DRILLING.  If you have a smaller potentiometer on an Asian import guitar, only minimal modification to the hole is required. Asian potentiometers are typically 9mm.

Wiring is very simple - simply wire the red wire to the hot terminal on your output jack and the black wire to ground.  One of the most simple wiring jobs you will have to do on your guitar!

Specs:

  • Type: Momentary Push Button Switch
  • Operation Type: Normally Open 
  • Housing Material:  Plated Brass
  • Mounting hole Size: 10mm
  • Mounting Panel Thickness: 1mm-6mm
  • Operation Pressure: about 5n
  • Operation Stroke: 2.0 mm
  • Contact Resistance: 50 mOhm
  • Mechanical Life: 500,000 cycles
  • Switch Rating: 2A/36VDC

What does all this mean?  You're getting a tough switch that will last a long time in your instrument and look good doing it!  

The switch is easy to install. If you have the slightest bit of skill with a soldering iron you can do it yourself. If you do not have that skill, you should have a guitar repair person do it.  The mounting hole is slightly larger than a standard volume or tone pot (10MM vs. 9MM) which which makes this the closest measurement to your standard pot hole, and if you decide to go back to your original setup, you don't have to buy a new pickguard or repair that hole in your wood.  The difference is thickness of a heavy guitar pick!
