Does the Prs 5 way blade switch on the PRS accessories store for the Us made PRS guitars work with the SE custom 24 or the one for the S2 series?

I belive the one for the S2 is the same one they use in the SE's as they are made overseas with metric measurements and screw threads.

The core version also fits S2's, it's not really a metric/imperial thing, just the location of the slot and holes. Whether the core version fits SE's, I'm not sure, but at least as of the SE's I've tried in the last few years, I think it's a different switch, just based on the way the action feels when using it.

FWIW, I had a 3-way blade switch go kaput on me in an S2, and replaced with the core version (only option at the time) and I actually prefer the way the S2 switch felt when cycling it. Which is a completely ridiculous thing to care about, but it's true.

The core version fits the SE. You can see and feel the difference in quality between the two, especially side by side. I have a pic somewhere..

Sorry to bump an old thread but if I get the USA (Not the S2 one) Prs 5-way blade switch that's listed on the PRS accessories store, will it fit in my SE Custom 24 and does it work with the stock 85/15S pickups? The top link below is the one I was looking at:

Also, I saw the PRS Custom 22/24 Drop In Electronics (Blade) for $68 on the PRS accessories store: https://us.prsaccessories.com/colle...ts/prs-custom-22-24-drop-in-electronics-blade would that fit or too much trouble?

Yes and Yes..You'll have to ream shaft holes a bit but that's easy. There's a hand tool on amazon that makes quick and easy work of it.

Good luck!
