whoofnagle Posted November 20, 2004 Report Share Posted November 20, 2004 I am about to cut the holes for my tone/volume and three-way switch for a tele style body. What is the best method for cutting the slot for the three way switch? Thanks for help with the simple question, Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnsilver Posted November 21, 2004 Report Share Posted November 21, 2004 No one jumped in. I'll tell you what I did on my tele - don't know if its the best way or not. I carefully marked out the outline of the switch on the top including where the slot would go. I used a drill bit slightly undersized for the width of the slot and drilled a series of holes the length of the slot. I used a brad point bit so it wouldn't wander when drilling. I then took a small file and cleaned up the slot. After that, I set the switch upside down in the slot and marked the two screw holes and drilled them.
