Hey everyone, just hoping someone has a simple answer to this.

I am looking into the wiring/electronics of my next project. I found the exact wiring I want through Dimarzio, it uses a Dimarzio EP1112 super switch. I have a few things I need to order through Stewmac, and was hoping I could buy the Grigsby super switch they have there instead of having to special order the Dimarzio switch. I know they have the same # of lugs/poles, but is the switching the same?

I have been trying to find something like this for the Dimarzio switch, but haven't found one yet.

This one is for the Stewmac switch.

For completeness, this is the diagram I am going for.

It looks functionally the same to me. Dimarzio are listing position 1 as neck and others may list that as position 5. Also no idea what pickups you are going to use but you may have to adjust the colors of wires as compared to the diagram which is using Dimarzios colour codes.
 
DiMarzio probably buys the Grigsby switches and brands them as their own, like how gibson uses a variation CTS pots.
