I’ve been a tele guy for a long time and I really like the tele switch placement. It might just be familiarity, but I reach down with the middle finger on my right hand and switch it that way. It is a little harder to grab when it’s in the bridge position though - it gets pretty close to the volume pot. I don’t feel like I’m in danger of hitting it when I’m playing though which is part of the reason why I like it better than the switch on some other guitars. All personal preference though!

I had a Fender1962 Japanese Custom Tele reissue and never had trouble with the selector knob coming off.

I purchased a used ( but then current 2020 player model ) Telecaster from my local guitar center. It sounded terrible as the previous owner had really mucked up the set up, dead strings &c.. When checking out I noticed there was no knob on the selector. I asked the man behind the counter to see if he could dig one up. He looked in a little box under the counter. No Knobs. He said it was the TOP HAT style that fell off. I went and looked at a similar model, new hanging on the wall and it was missing as well, either fell off or someone else beat me to it. The other Tele's had the barrel style such as shown in this video. There are different knobs for USA made and Mexican made Tele's. I bought 2 knobs from my authorized Fender dealer and slid it on. I believe it had an X or a + shaped Indention It stuck and stayed stuck. I have another Mexican factory manufactured Telecaster other than my 2020 Metallic Surf Punk Green model, a 2014 FSR Butterscotch Blonde &c. It has a barrel style and has never fallen off............I like the White Telecaster in the video.The neck could use a bit of tinting........and a +1 on the Neck Pickup choice. I also use no pick. :)~

Mine fell off and vanished the first day. So I took a bead from out of a DIY jewelry kit, fastened it on, no glue. Has stayed put for 20 years 😅

Holy crap. I found one of these on the stage floor during a gig and assumed it was off a stompbox or something. (My guitarist has a Strat). Wish I knew who lost it. Oh well next Tele player I see gets it. Nice looping.

An easy fix for this is to take a wire cutter and pinch the metal of the switch. You'll make a little crimp in the sides that will hold the switch tip in place.
