Price Drop

When you consider how easy it is to broaden the horizons of your playing skills when you're equipped with a guitar amp footswitch, it's really no wonder why they're used so often. With the simple click of a button, footswitches allow you to completely change your guitar tone without interrupting the flow of your show. For this reason, every gigging guitarist can benefit from owning an amp footswitch, and within this selection you'll discover an impressive range from today's most respected amplifier manufacturers.

Obviously, choosing the right guitar amp footswitch for you will boil down to how many channels you need during a performance. For example, if you're simply looking to go from a clean rhythm to a full-blown overdrive, you wouldn't require any more than those two channels. However, if you like to explore other possibilities, you might want to consider a footswitch that offers you more options. With that in mind, if you're not sure where to start your search in this section, you can always begin with the best sellers, and the Line 6 FBV Shortboard MKII is loaded with volume, speed and control features. In fact, this full-sized pedal is solidly built and has all the classic advantages you'd expect from Line 6. Containing up to 64 presets, it's easy to customize your guitar tone when you're rigged with the FBV Shortboard MKII.

Another top-notch footswitch comes courtesy of DigiTech. Featuring 14 high-quality vacuum style switches and a huge 14 character LED display within a durable metal chassis, the DigiTech Control 2 allows you to explore the inmost depths of your guitar and amp with total ease. Additionally, this footswitch contains a built-in expression pedal that's assignable to wahs, volume, DigiTech Whammy and more.

You'd be hard-pressed to attend a huge rock concert and not find a guitar amp footswitch somewhere on the stage floor. They're essential units to own for any professional touring group, and incorporating one into your setup will most certainly provide you with the freedom and flexibility to showcase your talents.
