I read a post a while back that asked
about compatible footswitches. The LED
is definitely dead in mine, and the amp
occasionally takes a while to make up its
mind if it wants to switch channels
(actually, the more I play it, the less I see
that problem, so it's probably the contacts
in the switch).
I've got an early 112RD-100. Silver
badges, black lettering, EV speaker, two
button footswitch. Incidentally, my tubes
have been replaced with a pair of Sovtek
EL34WXT tubes. I've been playing it on
low power, cranking the volume all the
way on the clean channel and the gain
most of the way on the drive, and it has a
very nice, warm sound.
I've heard some real trash talk about
Sovtek tubes, so I've been thinking about
putting a pair of JJ (Eurotubes) in there,
but everyone seems to be happy with the
Svetlanas. Comments welcome.
Anyway, the footswitch is my main
concern. Anyone know?
