Gibson BFG on/off switch fu**ed up... It is just rolling in the circle...
Do you know where to buy it...? Part number?

Thx! Dayne

Tighten the nut.

P.S. Why is the P90 so far down in the rout?

 

[Bubbletonic]

no he means the actually toggle rolls around within the switch, its fooked, search ebay for killswitch or 2-way toggles, Gibson does not provide a replacement for this part.

Hey, OP....is the nut tight?

 

[Bubbletonic]

...the nut will only hold the toggle ring tighter to the guitar, the toggles are cheap and the bit inside breaks so the actual switch just falls around instead of moving between the on and off settings, I've broken one exactly the same.

Send me your address by Priveate Message, dude I have two or three of those laying around from past BFGs, the first thing I do with BFGs is switch it over to standard 4 knob set up and move the 3 way to right place....you can have it FREE (Ha Ha! like thats a really big deal huh? Its not like it cost $100 bucks, seriously though its yours man....)

Humanity at it's best! Such a kind gesture!

Even though I'm not familiar with anyone in MLP Forums........

.....it is such a warm place to hide.

Dayne....Duuuuuuuuuude
You skipped right over my post, and you are not replying to the private message I sent, do you want this switch ?

 

[Dayne]

Thanks skipdog! Just received the package!

Unfortunately kill switch was stolen.

Below it's written on the stamp: "The package came from abroad damaged"

And here: "The box was damaged. Inside only bubble foil."

Dude! That sucks, man!

 

[ledlover01]

Wow isnt it amazing what people do these days

 

[djwilbanks]

I had a switch tip stolen out of an envelope. I got the note and a piece of tape where the switch tip was. The tap was still in the shape of the tip. Some people, man.

 

[skipdog]

Ive got another one, I mail it Monday....sorry for the misfortune. Who in the hell would want this thing ??? I doubt they even know what it is. Do you think Customs confiscated it thinking it was a bomb part? Anyway, I know this is a hard part for you to get overseas....I'll email you the tracking number when it ships, this is the first International shipment I have had any problems, I have shipped Les Pauls all over the world.

 

[Dayne]

Thx a lot! Really appreciate! Will pay you shipping fees!

Greetings from Poland! Dayne

Make sure to put "not a bomb part" on the box.

Good luck, people on this forum are the best ever! djwilbanks hooked me up with the exact same switch a few weeks ago...

 

[djwilbanks]

Yeah, after our own little adventures with the Post Office.
