Westone Thunder 1A - dpdt toggle switch for active circuit on/off


Recommended Posts

Hi, Wilco

Is it the round 'stick' type or the paddle type? Pretty sure I've got something that would do fine you can have for free if you want to PM me your address. I'm pretty sure I've got at least one of each type new and unused....

Hi Andy,

That is very decent of you sir, but I'll cover the postage at the very least.

Preference would be a paddle type to match the other one on the bass. It's a 6 terminal on/on I think?

Cheers,

Wilco

The festive break has finally given me a chance to sort this bass out.

Many thanks indeed to Andy above for his advice,  guidance & most of all for sending me a new switch FOC - top bloke. 

The bass is now fully operational as it should be & I love it!

Thunder 1A  was my first bass....

A fretted one was mine too - back '82 or '83. I'm sooo pleased to have another one & fortunate that it's in such good condition.

I'm told that these are relatively heavy, but since it was my first bass I had nothing to measure it against. I've always wanted to find a neck through model (11a or 111a) with headstock damage which could be converted to headless. Wouldn't want to destroy a perfectly good bass just to do the conversion though.

Mine's 9.2lbs which is heavy, but not by too much.
