Title: Rangemaster switch
Post by: teknoman2 on September 09, 2012, 09:55:43 AM
If I dont use SPST switch but SPDT (On-On) switch will I face any problems?

Is there any difference?

Simply leave the extra lug unconnected. SPST has two lugs -- no option for a second "on." SPDT has three lugs -- one common and two options.

Hay, I saw that on his picture of the rangemaster that there was no SPST switch, unless it was wired to the top of the enclosure. And would it be reconmended to do a monitenary switch instead? 

Thanks a lot,

The switch on MB's Rangemaster pedal is a tone switch, not a detune or similar, meaning a momentary wouldn't make much sense. It's optional, as well, which means that you don't HAVE to put it in. But being able to kick it down an octave from a treble to a midrange-treble boost if you want is fun.
