Alternate strata pup selectors - what is available?

[lfm]

The 5 way selector/switch in neck position is always in the way.
- either getting anoyed hitting it
- or even moving position to 4th

Before trying to bend in 90 degree angle downwards, I thought if there are switches that have 5 positions up to straight up, or something. Shorter between each position.

Might there be 7 position ones, and not use a couple?
- that is compatible otherwise?

Best if replacable to original but not a stranger to have another that fully can replace electrics of the 5 way so tone control and everything is as original.

Otherwise I might rebuild to drill new holes so it is parallell to strings, a bit like standard tele.

First thing I did was to move volume knob under pickguard so that is out of the way. So just this switch thing that bothers me seriously. And cut tip of it so a bit shorter plastic tip than original, better but not good.

Might be enough to bend tip 90 degrees downward, just a little that is needed.

Otherwise I enjoy this guitar.

There are 5-position rotary switches. You can make your own cover plate with gibson layout.

This is not your first strat, is it? It took me a while to get used to it, not accidentally changing volume or pickup selection in my enthousiasm.

Thanks.

Yes, it is my first strat, bought 15 months ago.
Even position 4 is rather ok, it is 5 that haunt me a bit.
I don't think it's much that is needed, will see if I just bend tip downwards to get some extra millimeters. It's a steel plate below pickguard to rather sturdy.

Even cutting of half of plastic tip down to metal helped quite a bit.
