Megaswitch S: Ultimate Precision and Versatility for Guitar Switching Systems

The Megaswitch S is crafted from the best materials, featuring rugged metal housings, super solid moving parts, and gold-plated conducting paths, ensuring perfect sound, superb functionality, and long service life. Engineered for extreme precision, this switch snaps cleanly into all positions, offering guitarists unprecedented control over their sound.

With easy installation and flexible wiring options, the Megaswitch S significantly broadens the range of possible sounds on electric guitars. It supports a variety of coil combinations on pickups that are not possible with standard switches, making it ideal for advanced configurations.

Configuration Options:

  • SSS2: The new Stratocaster standard switching system introduced in the mid-1970s. Allows for simultaneous operation of neighboring pickups in positions 2 and 4. Requires the middle pickup to be reverse-poled and wound in the opposite direction for buzz-free operation.
  • HSS1: Replaces the bridge single-coil with a Humbucker for a fuller sound with enhanced mids and bass. Position 4 requires opposing magnetic polarity for buzz-free operation.
  • HSS2: A variation of the HSS1 where the Humbucker is split in position 2, keeping the outer coil active. Requires NS-S-N or SN-N-S magnetic polarity for buzz-free sound in positions 2 and 4.
  • HSS3: Another variation where the inner coil of the Humbucker remains active in position 2. Requires NS-N-S or SN-S-N magnetic polarity for buzz-free operation in positions 2 and 4.
  • HSH1: A simple system for guitars with two Humbuckers and a single-coil. The Humbuckers are not split, and the switch functions are standard.
  • HSH2: For guitars with two Humbuckers and a single-coil, with the Humbuckers split in positions 2 and 4, keeping the inner coils active. Requires NS-N-SN or SN-S-NS magnetic polarity for buzz-free sound in positions 1, 2, 4, and 5.
  • HSH3: Similar to HSH2, but with the outer coils of the Humbuckers remaining active in positions 2 and 4. Requires NS-S-SN or SN-N-NS magnetic polarity for buzz-free operation.

The Megaswitch S is designed to offer unparalleled flexibility and control, making it an essential upgrade for any guitarist looking to expand their tonal possibilities.
