@RyanHyde@techhub.social I think the quality of a switch matters more than the type, and I think it's great that you fixed your guitar.
Any switch is going to wear out. A slider switch on my Jag needs me to wiggle it a bit to get it to connect sometimes.
The Les Paul style 3 ways I've seen look pretty durable under the hood to me, and they can do that stutter sound on a guitar with two volume knobs.

@eyesquash@mastodon.world The problem with the Gibson style 3-way is the openness of it. Very prone to dust and corrosion. Of course, I could have bought some Switchcraft switches and had better luck, most likely, but they still are open to the same issue. I like the idea of the sealed switch much better. Not sure I know the sound of the stutter effect you’re talking about. Not part of my repertoire either way.
