Jupiter Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 Hey guys! I recently saw a Buckethead video on Youtube.com (search for bueckethead lesson, you'll find it) that had him playing his white les paul. The guitar was rigged up with an awesome killswitch that he used for super fast in/out signal cuts (think: the heavy Future Breed Machine solo by Meshuggah). it almost looked like a kill button, if that makes sense. I'd love to take out the tone pot of my RG7421 and replace it with one of these bad boys. What do i need to get, where can i get it, and how do i do it? Thanks!!!

Pr3Va1L Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 (edited) get any on-off button at radio shack or such and you'll be set..... Just wire it before the output jack or something. Edited August 4, 2006 by Pr3Va1L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitefly SA Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 get a momentary on off switch from radio shack, unsolder the hot going to the jack and solder it to one lug on the switch, now solder a wire from that same lug to the hot lug on the jcak, now take the other lug on the kill switch and solder a wire from that to the ground lug on the jack. that should be it, I put a kill swith in my RG 7420 not that long ago and I love it.

TenderSurrender Posted August 4, 2006 Report Share Posted August 4, 2006 Heya I think these guys have got it pretty much covered but if you want some more reading material on kill switches, use the search feature built into the board. This topic has been covered a few times and it might help you a bit ~~ TS ~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
