Hi there. I came across recently for some guitar-ish-looking switches. So i took them home, they were salvage, free of charge. But when i got home i noticed that they are not 3-way but 2-way and mounting holes (34mm) does not match my regular 5-way strat switch.
But it looks solid enough to by used in something, and i have 5 of them screaming to me "use us you moron!"
Any ideas?

If it doesn't look weird, (it might look really stupid) you could mount two on a guitar for on off switches for each pickup. It'd be kinda like a jaguar.

You could use it on a double neck lapsteel as a way to switch from one neck to another.

Maybe a greasebucket tone, or a coil tap?

+1 for on/off. I have a couple on a guitar I built, and if one pickup is off, you can use the other switch as a kind of kill switch. pretty cool.

Or a lead circuit. Like a jag. Bypassing the pots. Straight from the pup to the input Jack.

How about les paul? Is there 3 way or 2 way switch under rythm-treble plate?
Those little fellows have 2 separate switches in them. There is no electrical connection between them so i was thinking about series-paralel switch for humbucker or something like that.

That's a good idea. +1

Also, maybe series/parallel?
