Hi everyone,
i need to build a footswitch for my Marshall VS65R, it cost to much $30!
But i know it's possible to build one for cheap, is anyone as a plan for me!

That's the one for my amp: Marshall PED801 Single Footswitch with LED, it should work same way, so please can you put a pic or something that work with the amp!

Thanks everyone :)

I have a switch for a AVT50 head. Its PEDL1001. I dont know if its the same as what you are looking for but its a single switch with an led. All mine does is switch from clean to overdrive. Is that what you need or is it for a diferent function? I dont have a host to put my picture but if you want to PM me your e mail I can send it to you.

I needed a channel switch for my amp, too. I bought one of these on eBay for cheap. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=7375238531

I added the LEDs myself. I removed the SPDT X-Wings and put in DPDT X-Wings so the LEDs could be attached on the otherside. One switch switches between the amp channel and the other turns my reverb unit on/off so I whipped up a quick splitter with a couple parts from RadioShack.

anyone know for the switch that toggles the gain/clean channels is it just a momentary switch at the end of a wire or is it a latching switch?
