I have a Ibanez DE-7 with a broken 3 way switch for the range, does anyone know if this is easy to replace or what type of switch is it?

It is the one on the left.

Hi coupe89

I never really pulled mine apart that far.
If you do please post a pic or two of the switch.

May I suggest you take the PCB with switch to your local electronics supplier, to see if they have a similar one.
I know my local supplier/s have a lot of stuff that is a very close match.

Or you may want to contact the Ibanez service agent in your local area.
Or even Ibanez in your country.
Most times the service guys/agents are quite helpful, & they may even have a spare or Second Hand one off an older trashed pedal.

With a bit of care, sometimes you can rebuild a faulty slider switch,
I've done it a few times.
Sometimes the Slide switch gets difficult/impossible to move.
because the grease/lubricant dries out, & all it needs is a fresh,
dab of lubricant.

Can I ask how yours became faulty?

Please do post a few pics.
Good Luck

Regards Dr. Bob

The nub is broke off, I can still switch it by using something to stick in there. I am going to go to the local music store next week.
