Members finboy Posted March 27, 2008 Members Share Posted March 27, 2008 hey everyone, i'm looking for a pedal housing for a project, but one that might be a bit weird shaped. a side profile like this....... __ __/_____|________| if that worked, then what i'm trying to show you is a pedal with a slightly raised center section, i want to mount a momentary kill switch on the raised part, so i could hit it without engaging/disengaging the pedal. looking for something close to the size of an ibanez or boss pedal, with a big main switch to engage the effect.worst case, if there are none like that, i suppose as long as it's aluminum or steel, or some kind of weldable metal, i can have my friend weld on it. thanks again guys Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members finboy Posted March 27, 2008 Author Members Share Posted March 27, 2008 kind of like this tube screamer, but a bit further away from the main pedal, so i could use a larger switch... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cdawzrd Posted March 27, 2008 Members Share Posted March 27, 2008 wow, wtf is on the side of that pedal?? but seriously, your best bet may be to get a large-ish hammond box (check pedalpartsplus.com) and weld on an attachment. Alternatively, most pedals with 2 switches use a wide box with the bypass on the right and the other function on the left (i.e. your killswitch)... would that work?
