Hi. Im after a 5 way switch but PRS want £55 for theirs. Is there a compatible, right size alternative that is good quality but a lot cheaper? Thanks.

Thanks, but is this a straight swap? You know it will fit? Cheers.The Freeway blade switch.

Yep, I’ve swapped several out. There are others on this forum that swear by them as well. They are great switches.

If you want the usual PRS switching, or other tricks, you can use an Oak Grigsby Super Switch. The narrow version (found it in UK: https://sixstringsupplies.co.uk/products/oak-grigsby-super-switch) should fit, since the PRS unit is basically a stripped down version of this. I guess the regular wide super switch will work, but not fully confident on that.
You can also use a Schaller Megaswitch M to get the same switching options as a Super Switch. If you like the older rotary selections, you can use a Megaswitch P for ease of wiring.
You could also use a CRL three way blade and a push/pull for coil tap.
