leds on VFS5?

Postby lordofthestrings » 06 Dec 2009, 00:13

there's some great contributions lately regarding mods on these great little amps.
Any of you guys think it would be possible to add leds to the footswitch to fix this glaring omission?

They were only omitted because of cost, so it must be possible. :wink:

The easiest way to tell is to open one up and look to see what is inside and find the schematic for it. I don't have one so I cannot do so.

Just taking mine to bits. Will post photos later. There's plenty of room inside and the box and the circuit-board is pretty simple...

Right, I'll do this in a couple of posts.
1) Overview shots
2) PCB rear details
3) PCB Front details

and maybe some various details of the main PCB part.

So, 1) Overview shots:
