Hey Guys,
Have any of you had an issue with the toggle switch being noisy just out of the blue? The guitar cuts out and sounds a lot like a bad cord. I flipped it back and forth a few times and it seemed to take care of the problem for the time being. Where can I get a replacement if needed?
Thanks,

Some good contact cleaner might fix it. Worked for me. |

Robbie, I imagine you could order a new toggle switch direct from the new Emmons company. They are still using that same switch.
Yep, after a period of time, these things go bad.
I know the last time I replaced mine, I bought a spare (20 years ago) and so far have not had to replace it again.
