Allparts EP-0478-000 Oak Grigsby 5-Way Blade Switch for Stratocaster
The Allparts EP-0478-000 is a genuine Oak Grigsby 5-way blade pickup selector switch for Stratocaster-style electric guitars β the industry-standard switch used by Fender as original equipment on American-made Stratocasters. Includes stainless steel mounting screws. Made in the USA.
Oak Grigsby β The Industry Standard for Stratocaster Switches
Oak Grigsby is the manufacturer behind the 5-way blade switch used in most American-made Fender Stratocasters β the same switch that has been the benchmark for Stratocaster pickup selection for decades. Oak Grigsby switches are known for their precise detent positions, reliable contact, and robust construction. If your Stratocaster's switch is intermittent, scratchy, or has lost its positive detent feel, replacing it with a genuine Oak Grigsby switch restores the original switching performance. A significant upgrade over generic import blade switches that use lighter contact materials and less precise detent mechanisms.
5-Way Blade β Standard Stratocaster Pickup Selection
The 5-way blade switch provides the five standard Stratocaster pickup positions: bridge alone, bridge + middle, middle alone, middle + neck, and neck alone. The in-between positions (2 and 4) combine two pickups in parallel, producing the characteristic Stratocaster quack tones associated with positions 2 and 4. This is a direct replacement for the standard 5-way switch on most Stratocaster and Stratocaster-style guitars.
