The Guitar Gallery Forums - The Guitar Legacy of Matsumoku

I have a Aria Pro II Thor Sound TS 400 Matsumoku 80s RARE Teal and when I first got the thing back when I was a teen I had a screen door close on the guitar and snap a switch (guess I should not have been walking through a door wearing the guitar and carrying an amp.) Since the door slammed right into the switches thinking that the force might have damages the other two as well since they all haven't worked since that day. Thinking that I might have to replace all 3 not just the broken one or maybe have to re-solder the two intact ones. I could never find a replacement. So starting to look again. Any ideas where to get a replacement switch?

The three mini switches on your guitar should be Fujisoku 8C201.

They are still available... for example from RS Components:

I've had good success with this replacement mini switch on a Westone Thunder:

Many other styles and colours also available;
