I have 2014 HotRod Delux III with a dual footswitch for selecting 'Channel' and 'More Drive'.
I will never use the 'More Drive'option but I do need a footswitch control for the Reverb.
Is there any way of substituting the "More Drive' function with a 'Reverb' function on the footwsitch and/or amp?
Or would it be easier to install a separate jack with a separate footswitch across the Reverb control potentiometer?

Hi Brian Potts,

There is no option for switching the reverb via foot switch on the HRDlx. If you choose to modify the amp for reverb control, let us know how that works out.

Well, I haven't tried it, but if you remove Q1 and rewire Q2, that could do it. disconnect the Drain and source leads from R24 and wire it across R35. It might work. Let us know.

Ok, for non techies.
Pull Q1
On Q2, disconnect the lead that goes to R24 and C9. Connect it to R35 and R46
