1980's AMPEG V3 COMBO AMP FC-3 FOOTSWITCH REDUX - LET'S BUILD! - EPISODE 14
Today the Tone Priest revisits the FC-3 footswitch which is needed to operate a 1980's MTI era Ampeg V3 combo amplifier. Hopefully there won't be a need for a re-redux.
A very special thank you to @TheGuitologist for the very kind words on his latest SPF video. He was instrumental in inspiring the TP to spend all his money on these wacky endeavors: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGqxwgGpzrw
