Can anyone recommend a true bypass relay? Best would be a board with hard to find parts. I've been Loki g into these and they seem to have a characteristics.

- the relays can be hard to source
- some use a micro controller but a few do not

My plan is to house something in a Boss enclosure. This means I'll need a tactile momentary switch. I might be able to repurpose the Boss switch.

So are you just looking for the relay, or do you want the whole circuit? I know PedalPCB has some relay switching projects that I've heard are easy to use.

I'm looking for PCB but I need one where the parts are east to get. I'll check out I'vebuilt some of their projects in the past they do a great job.

Looks like Pedalpcb has a pretty interesting switching board but it's not available yet.

Thanks that looks like a deal, explains why they are on back order!

After some googling I noticed some people replacing the stock Boss switch with a standard stomp switch! I might give this a try myself. If anyone else has tried this I'd like to hear about your experience.

I have some unpopulated CD4011 soft-touch PCBs available that work with Tayda relays I could send you.

That would be pretty awesome! I think I have a couple old 4011's in the parts bin.
