Budda question

Couldn't the bright switch and mid pull switch be modded to be used live with a footswitch?

That would really put Budda on the map.

I think the idea behind the Budda SD series is simplicity. But I agree that anything that can be switched should be included on the footswitch.

I wonder how that would affect the cost?

As it is, I love my Budda.

I would call Budda and ask them. Maybe you will get them thinking about adding that option as well. But they should know who their amp techs are and who could handle that.

Its just one guy, Jeff Bober. He designs the amps and you can ask him tech question via email at the Budda site. He always answers my emails with in a day, Maybe not weekends, i am not sure. He is one of those people who appreciates you playing his "baby" and would bend ovr backwards to help you.

Well let's face it. It would require that the pull controls be replaced and the wiring that makes the changes would have to be connected to a relay that would make the change. I don't know that it's worth it but maybe for you it is.

Take it to a good tech.

Might be easier to run and RC Booster in front...if you tweak it, you can probably get a very similar effect as the modern pull.
