Red Switch on "C" Headstock

Post by still_waters_43 »

Will the red switch from the "C" headstock fit on the "B" 500 headstock?. I was hoping to install it (if it fits).

A square switch will Not fit in a round hole! The 'red' switch is much larger than the 1/2"(15/32") hole. The 'B' type switch is much easier to find/replace.
