Fender Mike Kerr Owners .....

[edstraker123]

Hi All,

I've had the bass for nearly a year now but from new the pickup selector switch has been really stiff and definitely needs more pressure between positions than any other I've ever known.

Are they all like that or did I just get another great example of Fender Quality control ? Anything I can do to fix it other than replacement ?

That actually sounds great to me, I always feel toggle switches move way too easily 

But seriously though, if it feels off you could try lubricating it. Don't use contact cleaner, and don't use anything that contains silicone as it will leave a residue that could stay behind on the contacts. There are special switch cleaner products for these.
