Speaking of EQ...know anywhere I can pick up a MKIII Dual Footswitch (for the EQ/Reverb)?   ???

Walker, you have a dual foot switch already and the cable you would use to hook it up. Look in your rack bag and grab the dual boss FSxx pedal or whatever its called and use the black tip/ring/sleeve cable (TRS Cable?) that is in the bag. That is the cable you would want. I forget what that specific cable is called but one line turns on/off one thing and the other turns on/off the other thing. It looks like a regular guitar cable but has two black lines instead of one on the tip. In any case just hook that sucker up and give it a try. I used it before you had it for the same purpose on another amp.

I had already thought of that but would rather have the orignal if at all possible.  For coolness effect, more than anything  8)

The last time I saw that ad on CL (for your amp) it had the foot switches included. Did you not get them? I think they are single function switches however which negates the need for the TRS cable. They have aftermarket ones specifically for boogies all over ebay. Or get the Analogman version which sorta looks like the same one Trey uses. It's just a black box that has two switches and controls two things. Your HotRod Box might even work (with TRS cable) in theory.

I see a ground control in your future with all those gizmos.

The rhythm1/rhythm2 and Rhythm/lead changers are both single pedals, but the EQ & Reverb on/off switch definitely requires a stereo cable as it controls both functions in the one unit.  Haha, I said "unit."
