Members ¤ Matt ¤ Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 Do you mean a channel switch or some sort of effects pedal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members newholland Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 i think you could make one with any 1/4" on/off footswitch-- just solder an RCA jack on the amp side, IIRC. something like this: http://cachepe.zzounds.com/media/quality,85/brand,zzounds/fit,400by400/one_button-f3702a18ccd8aae18de9c8045b78e5ad.jpg just remove teh normal guitar jack on one end, and put one of these on the other... OR you can buy one preassembled from fender like that.. you'd probably have to order it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ¤ Matt ¤ Posted January 28, 2009 Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 Or use 0994050000 to order the footswitch from any Fender dealer. That's the part number for the one button RCA type f/switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members thecrayonset Posted January 28, 2009 Author Members Share Posted January 28, 2009 this is for the vibrato. I'm a noob - thought you needed different footswitches for different amps?? I'm probably wrong here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The easiest option would be to order the Fender one with the part number I posted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
