So, I used to play a little guitar when I was younger and when I had to move away for work purposes, I let my "buddy" hold on to my guitar and amp. Well, when I returned a year later, I found out he sold it for some heroin.... So a decade and a half went by, had some kids and bought myself and my daughter(6 at the time) each a guitar. I bought myself a Jackson dinky and bought her a Jackson randy rhodes minion (sweet little guitar). I have never had any lessons and retaught myself some from the youtubes and have actually made some good (in my mind anyway) progress. She is going to start some lessons on this outschool website over zoom(my 11yo son takes bass lessons on it) as I am in no position to teach someone guitar. Ok, sorry for all the useless info above. Now for my issue...
I know this is a shot in the dark, but I recently purchased a used Marshall avt150 amp. This thing sounds absolutely amazing and a huge step up from my old blackstar id10 little practice amp (which sounds great for its size).
Anyway, i come to find out that there is a footswitch available for this amp, but actually finding one is not looking good as this series of amps has been discontinued. So, to my question: do any of you have any idea if there is something that would work with this amp? Like I said, this amp is absolutely incredible, and would love to have a switch to switch betewwn channels. It has acoustic simulator(which sounds beautiful), clean, overdrive1, overdrive2. The oem switch lets you switch between those and also switch the onboard effects on and off. I couldnt findany solid info, just some posts from like 2015 claiming that it could be reverse engineered and some other switches may work with no solid info to follow up on and I dont want to revive a 7 year old thread. I figure maybe someone here knows a thing or two about this. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Anyway, I do plan on doing some jamming for you guys when I develop the nerve to not be so worried about being laughed at. Music is life, and I play drums, bass, and geetar. My living room looks like a mini studio. And I tell my wife: music=life, living room should be filled with instruments, right?
Take care goats. Thanks for reading this if you've made it this far. Love you faggots.
