Finally a small chrome switch...maybe?

I found this on a guitar electronics supply site. No amp rating but I think electric guitars pull more current than our mods so it should be safe. At this price I can afford to order a couple and test them.

Single Pole Single Throw (SPST) Momentary ON-OFF Chrome Push Button Switch

Doesn't the "Momentary" indicate that it's a 'push for on; remove finger for off' type of switch (or vice versa, of course)?

In which case, as long as the amps are high enough, it looks like a viable switch.

Momentary switches are what I bought and that is how they work.

The description confused me for a moment also. I googled it and it means normally open. So it should be OK. We will know for sure in a couple of days when they get here. Once I get them I will report back on the quality and operation.

"This image is from Monkey Boxx, they sell this switvh.. it is $$ but will last forever." I got one of the ones from Monkeyboxx, they are chrome plated plastic. It worked well and looked nice.

I got the switch I listed in the OP. Looks good but it sticks up 1/2 inch. Too much for a front mounted switch. If it was on the top of the mod it would be OK.
