WTB: RCA Footswitch
« on: October 19, 2012, 01:15:51 pm »
I don't know why I didn't post this sooner, I've been looking for over a month one. I need a footswitch that works with a silver face Concert Lead. Get at me, I'll accept any reasonable offers. Not looking to pay top dollar for a pristine one, just looking for one that works since that's about the condition of the amp. What I'd prefer is the footswitch that hooks up to the reverb and distortion channels and can switch you between them as well as disengage or engage the distortion or reverb on their respective channels.

Hello there,

If you have a Marshall footswitch with the 2 switches, its really easy to get someone that knows what theyre doing to change the jack input to a dual RCA connector, i just got the tech to mark exactly what switch does ( i.e Red/Yellow ) what on the pedal and the back of the amp, they work exactly the same for a fraction of what you'll pay for a vintage one. I have exactly the same amp as you and have done this with the afforementioned footswitch. Ill post you a pic in a little while. You probably already know but the distortion channel sounds amazing, epecially with a distortion pedal in front of it and the reverb is fantastic also, only slight problem is the reverb is quite noisy, as in i get wuite a lot of background humm when i use it, not the distortion though.

Cool, there's a Live Wire one that's available for $20 I know and I'm sure I can find someone to rewire the thing. Doesn't stop me from continuing to look however I will see about this. Thanks.
