Kustom organ repair of funky contacts

[Tomasm53]

I have a Kustom organ from the '60's. It had Tabs on it that make and break contact with a bar to turn on and off different tones. The contact is a "spring-like" piece approximately 3/8" long. The little metal bar comes up from the pcb in one hole and back out in another hold. When the tab is actuated it has a lever system that brings the "spring-like" contact into contact with that bar to complete the circuit. The little metal bar looks like a tiny hitching railing for horses.

The weakness in this system is that the "spring-like" contacts break with wear and tear. They are soldered into the board. Does anyone know where you can find this type of contact?

A picture would help, but presumably these switches were made to a price (cheap).

You may be able to replace them with a lever operated microswitch or similar.

As well as a picture, dimensions would help too.

presumably these switches were made to a price

and in addition custm made for this organ.

You may be able to built ones yourself from strips of phosphorus bronze?
