I was dissatisfied with the original switch on my Ibanez S5EX1 - it was quite noisy, and only fair, I thought, as the guitar was preowned by a professional mucician
I installed a we weeks back, and to my disbelief, this one is even worse.
I'm unaware if the noise comes with the design, but if you don't like a scratching sound when shifting between PUPs - stay a way from this design, at least.
As my Uncle used to say: "Cheap comes at a price!".
So my recommendation is to spend the extra 5 € and buy a Schaller or similar.

I purchased this switch to replace the old one, which had problems with the end positions (installed on a Harley Benton). In particular, the old switch had a missing signal in the bridge position.
After installing this switch, everything worked well, but a similar problem appeared, but in a neck position. I assume that these switches have the same problems and they are installed on all ST-style Harley Bentons.
In general, it's a good inexpensive switch, which has a service life of about a year (maximum one and a half).

After 6 months it is already broken. In the beginning it did well but after that it doesn't switch well to another pick up.

If you intend to wire your guitar up like a strat, this 5-way switch will do the job. Pay attention this does not match alternative wirings with parallel, splitting and so on.

Not much to say about it, it will fit Ibanez guitars and looks sturdy enough. Just like the original one the contacts are a bit too small and cramped but it's normal.

I've had this built into a guitar for over a year and it does the job perfectly. No fault that I can see, the fit was perfect. No crackling while switching, the feel of the switch is good too. Everything's fine.
