Centralab 3-way Toggle Switch Short Frame
This is the new Centralab 3-way Short Frame toggle Switch. Centralab have cloned the Switchcraft Switch and after doing a thorough inspection, I personally believe it is better quality than the Switchcraft. Some of the things about this switch that I noticed are:-
1. A more defined click when switching between positions (I suspect they are using a slightly thicker spring steel plate).
2. The two contacts appear to be more robust with good alignment, which makes for better contact, and should make them longer lasting.
3. The switch has the same bushing thread as the Switchcraft switch. So, the round knurled nut is interchangeable.
4. The switch threads for mounting the switch tip are also the same, so the switch tips are also interchangeable with Switchcraft.
5. All the size measurements appear to be the same.
6. The overall build quality appears to be superior to Switchcraft.
7. They are priced lower than Switchcraft and for the money, they are great value.
I wasn’t able to find any negatives on this switch and going forward, I will be using this switch as my first choice on all my harness builds including Les Pauls, 335, SG and all other harnesses that require a 3-way toggle switch.
Available in Nickel and Gold finish
