DIY footswitch for your guitar amp

Improvised Overdrive Footswitch

Materials needed:

Lamp floor footswitch
1/4 Inch Jack Female to Twin Mono
Soldering iron and solder wire
Cutter
Superglue
Phillips screwdriver

Procedure:

1. Open the lamp footswitch using Phillips screwdriver. Put loose screws in a pot to avoid losing it.
2. Cut the 1/4 Inch Jack Female to Twin Mono and strip the wire.
3. Prepare your soldering iron and always make sure that you got a holder to avoid fire or burning certain objects.
4. Solder the wires to the footswitch. Don't you worry there's no polarity on this one. Then superglue it so that it will hold the jack in place and avoid pulling the wires.
5. Close the lamp footswitch and tighten the screws. Then, you're good to go.

All you need now is to plug your amp and you will need an extra guitar lead to plug the footswitch into your amp.
