So then is that called a push/push pot?

I found these:

And to answer your other question about longevity, I found this:

Well, comments about reliability aside, one of those threads states that Fender won't sell you an S1 switch on an aftermarket basis--warranty replacements through authorized Fender service providers only--so the whole point is kind of moot. It does look like a pretty nifty switching system, so I have to believe that somebody in the Far East will come out with a knock-off pretty soon.

I was hoping Fender offered something in a push/pull pot that was a direct replacement for the nice CTS pots that came in my Nashville Tele. These are full-size (24mm) pots with a short, solid shaft for set-screw type dome knobs. The only push/pulls I've ever been able to find are the 16mm mini-pots with a somewhat longer shaft length and a split knurled end. Also, the threaded portion of the shaft is a smaller diameter, so they don't fit snugly in the stock Tele control plate holes. None of these are serious problems, but it would be nice to be able to match up a push/pull pot with the original equipment configuration on a Tele.

Just a note--those are 500K pots, generally used on humbuckers. Single coils usually use 250K.
