Good news folks, I have finaly found a drop in push button type on/off/polarity switch for the metal face amps.
These new switches load in from the front of the amp with no modifications, so they will never break like the originals. I am currently in the process of getting stock of them so as of now I am not sure of what their price will be, I should know this by next week and have stock by the first or second week of the new year. Happy holidays to all!

Hi, Please keep us posted. I had to glue mine to "on" position and use a power strip to turn it on and off. I use it for every gig.

Well, as for this week I am tying to find another switch from this same company that can take the nessary current, have a lamp,look close enough and not cost 25 or more dollars.
The first switch I found has been disconntiued, but I am still trying to see if any of this companys ditributors might have some stock. This is the second time in 8 years I found a switch that would work, only to find I was about 3 months too late since they where disc`ed.
