{"product_id":"blackstar-fs-20","title":"Blackstar FS-20 2-Way Latching Footswitch","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Blackstar FS-20 is the two-button latching footswitch supplied with the St. James 50 6L6 head, 1x12 combo and 2x12 combo, so this is the spare or replacement unit for those amps. One switch moves between Channel I and Channel II, and the other selects the Voice setting of Channel II, OD 1 or OD 2.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eChannel II Voice\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChannel II on the 6L6 models is a cascaded valve overdrive. With Voice off, the power amp stays tight and fairly linear. Voice on adds saturation in the preamp and switches the power amp to open loop, for a looser high-gain feel with more low end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eOn the St. James\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith the FS-20 connected, the amp's front-panel Channel and Voice switches are disabled and the footswitch takes full control, while the amp's LEDs keep showing the current setting. If Voice is on for Channel II, its LED on the footswitch stays lit while you play Channel I, so you know the Channel II setting before you switch to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTwo latching switches: channel select and Channel II Voice\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSwitches between Channel I and Channel II\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSelects the Channel II Voice, OD 1 or OD 2\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFootswitch LED shows the Channel II Voice setting while Channel I is active\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupplied as standard with the St. James 50 6L6 head and combos\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eType:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2-way latching footswitch\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFunctions:\u003c\/strong\u003e Channel I \/ Channel II, Channel II Voice (OD 1 \/ OD 2)\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e St. James 50 6L6 head, St. James 50 6L6 combo, St. James 50 6L6 212 combo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Blackstar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67380305920249,"sku":"FS-20","price":79.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/blackoutaudio.com\/products\/blackstar-fs-20","provider":"Blackout Audio","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
