I think it's about P500.

However as I understand, these are momentary. You'll have to step on them for the duration that you're "switching channels".


Better idea is to use footswitches for Marshalls. Ouch..mahal ata yun. Anyway, I still have a couple of X-wing type DPDT switches which I can let go. Fabricate a footswitch with it. I can show you an example because my JCM800 emulator also has a channel switching footswitch.

Ubusin ko na lang. I think I have 2 or 3 left. P350 each na lang.

papaano ang wiring nito sir jobet? bale, yung DPDT footswitch, may mga terminals.. isosolder ko lang dun yung normal cable wires na parang sa patch cable? so yung kabilang end, yung switch, tapos sa kabilang dulo, normal cable plug? pano ba gmawa ng ng footswitch? hahaha
