Title: Fender Style Amp Effect Switch w/LED
Post by: murada on January 16, 2019, 10:59:44 AM
Does anyone have a simple schematic for a two switch amp effect controller with LEDs, and a 9v power jack? Having a hard time finding.

never seen a fender with a 9v power jack. but its probably surprisingly easy to do.

simplest way, two dpdt footswitches
two resistors
two leds
two led bezels
one power jack
one stereo 1/4" jack
one box

try this.  may have to play with it a while. the old school stuff was kinda like this, but it depends on the amp model etc, and what the switches do.

but this should work i'd imagine, as you're keeping the led and audio separate.

"Fender style" like a 60s Twin Reverb?  Or "Fender style" like a modern Hot Rod Deville?  Very different footswitches.
