Can anyone post some Rotary Switch part numbers or where is the best spot to get the best variety? Or perhaps which mod they can be used on.

Here's the Mouser part number for the one used with the older Tri-Boost kit, with solderable, eyelet lugs:

#105-13573

I've been hearing that the updated Tri-Boost kit Rotary switch will be board mounted. Small Bear carries the board mounted version of this switch here:

The switch is for board mounting but I think it could still be hard-wired and soldered fairly easily.

i just bent the leads down into little candy-cane shapes and the wire went right in.

I used these for the Wah but they will work on most of the other "mods" around here that call for rotary switches:

For the inductors 3P4T (this gives you I1 , I2, and I1+I2 inductor combo's):

3P4T Lorlin Rotary Switch from Mouser

For the caps a 1P12T:

every single person here should request a mouser catalog. It makes it so much easier to find what you are looking for. For example....if you wanted to look at rotary switches....they are all clumped together in the same section. Toggle switches are all in the same section. pots are all in the same section. Caps are all in the same section. trimpots are all in the same section. ect, ect.

The only thing the catalog won't help you with is finding semi conductors.
