Hi guys, I love this site so much.
I recently bought my second Music Man amp (first was an RP100/112). My "new" one is an RD100 Head with the white "Pinwal" tolex. Damn thing sounds so awesome and I got a great deal on it.
Only problem is that it doesn't have a footswitch and I would love to be able to switch channels.. Is there anyone on here that has an original footswitch to sell or can direct me to a dealer in the U.S. that may be able to help me? For now I'm gonna have a friend of mine rig up a basic channel changing switch but I really want the original..
Thanks guys!

only 11 hours left !but even if auction is over you still might work a deal with the seller if it don't sell.

after re-looking at that auction the thing is way too pricey with the shipping added,one other way is to just build one theres not much to them ,in fact there are schematics on this site and on the web.you can either try and find a empty or used fender type footswitch and fix it to work,adding a led is not that big a thing either,just a thought.
