Mesa EQ/Reverb footswitch

[haha]

Does anyone have any schematics or can anyone tell me how to wire one up? I haven't had any luck finding anything online.

The first question is what amp are you looking to build it for?

 

[haha]

They make more than one? It's for my Studio Preamp..

It looks like the switching is very similar to the Mark II and III so the same pedal should work. All it is is a mono 1/4 jack connected to a footswitch, and a 3300 ohm resistor. The other side of the resistor is connected to the led, and then back to the other lug of the jack. the switch's other side is connected to the same lug of the jack that the led is attached to.

A simpler footswitch would be to have the switch between the two lugs of the jack. both will work.

Thanks man but I've already made one of those. :wink:

I was talking about this footswitch: http://mesa.stores.yahoo.net/fcrg.html .

Same thing minus the led and resistor and duplicated to the other switch. The eq switch just grounds the reverb signal. The jack would have to be a 1/4 inch stereo TRS.

Any standard dual footswitch will work for this, won´t it?
