Mini Switch DPDT SHORT LEVER ON-ON 2-Position Coil Split Phase Reversal Series Parallel

A DPDT switch (Double Pole, Double Throw) is one of the most useful mods you can add to a guitar—it basically gives you two switches in one, letting you reroute signals in creative ways.

• 2-positions ON-ON
• Current Rating: 5A @ 120VAC or 28VDC.

The most useful DPDT guitar switch mods;

• Coil Split – humbucker → single-coil (brighter tone)
• Series/Parallel – thick & loud vs clean & clear
• Phase Reverse – thin, funky tone (like Peter Green)
• Kill Switch – instant mute/stutter (Tom Morello style)
• Neck+Bridge in Series – louder, humbucker-like combo
• Bypass (Direct Out) – max brightness, skips tone/volume
