Which pickup switch for 575?

[mikemccue]

Hi,

I've got a 575 and it needs some service on the pickup selector switch. I can make it work if I switch vigorously but it's not 100%.

 

I'd like to order a correct replacement before pulling the old one out.

 

I'm hoping someone can suggest the correct item from the AllParts website so I can place an order:

Thanks for any info you can offer.

I think Heritage uses Switchcraft toggles. They are found on All Parts' Gibson Switches page.

The switchcraft long or short toggle will work. You will also need a deep switch nut if you are replacing a non switchcraft switch.

 

Check Philadelphia Luthier Tools as well.

Thanks to both of you for the replies and info.

 

Thanks for the tip about the deep switch nut. It looks like I already have one on the guitar.

 

It's really helpful to learn that Philidelphia Luthier tools has them if I find I need one: part number: SWC-1821-NK

 

I also found the All Parts part number:EP-4923-001

 

Thank you.
