CRL Lever Switch, 5-Way

This is a replacement 5-way switch from CRL, the original supplier to Fender in the 1950s. This is the 5-way version of the 3-way switch originally used on Stratocasters. CRL was the original mark for Centralab, but CRL is now owned by Electroswitch, which also owns Oak-Grigsby (Fender's current supplier of lever switches).

CRL switches are still made in North Carolina, USA, whereas the Oak-Grigsby switches are made in Mexico.

If you want the original, CRL is it!
