WANTED: Line 6 FB4 Footswitch

Dark Soul · Post by **Dark Soul** » Monday Mar 21, 2011

I have an old Flextone Plus amp that I bought with no footswitch. The only one I know of that's compatible with it is the FB4. Cheapest one I can find online is $70 which I think is a bit much for a footswitch. I know it's a long shot, but would anyone happen to have one of these laying around they'd be willing to part with?

Worth a look, I know the line 6 footswitches are expensive... Good Luck!

Thanks! Never even heard of that website before. I found a local guy who has one he's willing to sell me, but if that doesn't work out I'll probably buy this even tho they are kinda rapin' ya with $20 shipping. But it beats the prices I've seen elsewhere.

And why ARE those fuckin things so damn expensive?? I read somewhere that the FB4 switch used to go for about $100 brand new. Seriously?! A hundred bucks for a glorified channel switcher? I love Line 6 and I know everyone has to make a living, but DAMN...

Turns out that's not an FB4. If you look closely, it says "FBV4" across the front. Also, every FB4 I've seen is red. This thing is plain metal. Incompatible with my Flextone. =(
