 |
|
| I have a couple of switches that I have saved from upgrades on guitars with cheap electronics. These switches have small circuit boards on them. Are these switches good enough to use for other projects, or do they belong in the garbage? Thanks. |

I'd save 'em. You never know when you might need just such a switch.
...but then I'm nothing if not a pack rat.

Here's what I'd do... put 'em somewhere, and then forget where you put them, That way you can buy new switches next time you need 'em.

Hows this then
A few weeks ago was using my capo.( dont use this often) any way went to find it last week. nowhere to be found so off i go and buy a new capo. then last night bizzarely it appeared in my toolbox.
I have no idea why or how it got there but i had already checked previously.
I must be getting old nearly 40

Oh I hope that's not old. I'll be 40 the of the month 
Nothing wrong with keeping a capo in the tool box. Put it on a 1/2 inch wratchet and brings it down to 1/4 inch. Oh wait....that won't work nevermind. Must be my old age kicking in.  |
