Dear all,


I recently bought an Einstein Head with Tubelit Roadie channel footswitch (see www.tubelit.de). This works fine, except that the 4 switches are too close together. So I am looking for a empty not-yet drilled footswitch box,
I prefer a slanted one, simular to the master/channel footswitch of the Einstein but wider, that a width of approximately 30 cm. I cannot find a Hammond (or simular) aluminium diecast boxes of that size, or any other box.

Maybe one to the Peters can help, if the let me know where they get their hardware for footswitch boxes...

Thanks

Dear all,


I did not get any response so it seems there is no result on the market.
Therefor I decided to make a box on my own. I will post the result as
soon as it is ready.

Something like this?

There are plenty more variations there.

I dont read German, but does that footswitch switch between the modes on channel 1?

Did you have to mod the head to do it?

How much was it?

thanks!
 
Dear all,

To answer Peter,
I checked many electronics internet stores but could not find anything
that is close to 24 cm (w) x 12 cm (d) x 3-5 cm (h) and slanted: going from 2,5 cm up to 5cm. At the moment I use a steel Hammond 1441 chassis box of 24 x 12,5 x 5 cm ... which is ok but not perfect because of
the height (5 cm) and because it is not slanted.

Maybe I overlooked some stores, so all suggestions are still welcome.


The link provided by hunter does not work on my computer ... so maybe
hunter if you can check it again and post it again ... thanks

To answer the question of fuzzyguitars: this switching works realy well ... it has 4 switches one for the 4 options:
channel 1, mode1,
channel 1, mode2,
channel 1, mode3,
channel 2

so you can switch directly between all modes of channel 1 and to channel2. The only problem I have is that the 4 switches are too close
to each other ... The price is ok: 245 euro ...

Thanks for your kind reactions,

Jan
