Trem / reverb footswitch Qs.

Hi- I have a MM 130 without a footswitch, so made a simple single-rca f'switch for the tremolo: it makes, or breaks the hot > ground simple as that. Fine.
Thing I dont understand is when I swap this simple f'switch into the reverb rca.. reverb stays on/ it doesnt switch it off. Im baffled.
Should it? (assuming so.. any ideas?) thanks rc

Nope-that shouldn't do that. Try just shorting the rever rca jack center electrode to ground and see if it shuts off the 'verb. Then I'd check my switch and connections. Like you said, it's just a ground bar. The reverb works on MM with no footswitch so it just grounds to turn it off/ Mike.

Thanks again Mike- I have experimented and it seems to be a simple shorting thing like the trem side, but needs connecting to the trem.. or s'thing/ tbh I dont understand! but anyway now it works.
