I ordered a Switchcraft tall toggle switch (for a Les Paul-style pickup selector) for a client. It is not installed yet, however I have discovered that the switch works fine on its own but not when the colored plastic knob is threaded onto it. The plastic knob prevents the switch from traveling far enough to the sides to properly latch, and in one of the positions it will not stay there at all and immediately flips back to the center.
I cannot install it like this, and although it is probably easy to re-shape the knob to make it skinnier at the base and get it working I feel that these switches are rather expensive and should not require this correction.
I have contacted the (well-known) website from which I purchased this item and await their reply.
Is this a common problem with these switches? I must say I am not impressed by such a fundamental design flaw for a costly item.
