LOL rev...if it's got a footswitch the PlexiPalace won't take it! (They only deal in vintage amps.) But if you're looking for the place to get a good old Marshall that will give you the classic Marshall crunch you want and the workmanship that will last, it's where to go. (Beware of price tag, though...it's the one part of their amps that is NOT vintage!) :eek

I would just take the amp and footswitch back, tell them you got a lemon and ask for another one. The problem could be in the amp circut, not the footswicth, since the footswitch has very little electronics.

Good luck.

CONGRATULATIONS for having made this experience! LOL

Lesson for today: Always think about Plan B

Just short before a recent gig my guitar sender/receiver started to flash like a christmas tree and refused to work.

Plan B was that I always have a long cable with me

Without that cable, I would have looked like you when the foot-switch LED did go off! LOL

When gigging... always have a second amp with you (even if it is a little 10W combo... better 10W transistor than air-guitar)! LOL

thats a good idea mike.... the 15w combo they do is a cracking amp.....

I think it may be my amp ..... I could not have got two broken foot switches in a row????
