I have a double neck non pedal with a defective front back both toggle switch.
What are the specs/source for a replacement? Mounting hole is round and std size. Bat style lever.
Thx

That is called an "ON-ON-ON" switch. It can be a double pole or single pole.

Check out Allparts. They show a mini on on on switch but may have a full size

I've never seen an on-on-on switch at Radio Shack. Just standard DPDT, SPST or DPST switches.

Actually not much in the way of parts anymore with the "new" Radio Shack's. They want to sell you cell phones and PC parts.

It's there, Jack. I got one for my MSA in there.
But I am disappointed that they've shifted focus.

Lane, that was probably just the Radio Shack you went to. I've been to several (including the one at the Antioch Shopping Center Annex in KC North) and many others including the one locally in Inverness, Fl and they hardly have any parts left and I've never seen an ON ON ON switch.

A steeler friend (now gone) was a manager of a Radio Shack in Brooksville, Fl and he asked me where he could get one for his guitar.

Lots of 2 pickup regular guitars use a 3 way on-on-on std. size toggle ala Gibson. Perhaps a straight LP switch will fit. Your local music store should have those.

This place shows that type of switch as well as 3 way box/bat style switches. http://www.guitarpartsresource.com/electrical_toggleswitches.htm
