velorush Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 Looking at online photos of Vector Korinas, the entire switch appears to be gold. e.g., So it's not the run-of-the-mill (nickel) Rickenbacker switch with a gold nut. I'm still looking for one in gold, but the usual suspects (Pick of the Ricks, for example) don't seem to have them in gold.
Studio Custom Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 Not exact, but gold: http://guitarelectronics.com/gotoh-3-way-guitar-toggle-switch-gold/ https://www.allparts.com/EP-0066-002-Gold-Short-Straight-Toggle-Switch_p_1235.html Closer: https://www.allparts.com/EP-4367-002-Switchcraft-Gold-Toggle-Switch_p_1409.html This is probably it: http://www.stewmac.com/Pickups_and_Electronics/Components_and_Parts/Switches/Switchcraft_Toggle_Switches.html
velorush Posted March 21, 2017 Posted March 21, 2017 I think he's going to need the long-tip Rick-type switch that Hamer used (P/N 8834) - see the photo, above. That's what I'm having a time trying to find in gold.
cmatthes Posted March 22, 2017 Posted March 22, 2017 I got a replacement gold switch for my Vector when Kim was still the Customer Service Guru @Hamer. It was a Switchcraft part, if I recall correctly...
