Needed a small tube amp, so being a 35+ year Fender guitar player I figured I'd get the SCx2. I am sorry my first post is this one, but I cannot believe that I need to spend $25 more for a special footswitch. Is that really true?

I only want to channel switch-period- Pretty sad if this is so.

Pull the trigger on the amp and pedal, I had one of each and loved the portability. Bite the bullet and pay the extra for the pedal, it is worth it.

I agree 100%. I got the amp first and got the pedal a month later. The functionality with the pedal is much nicer.

If it's any consolation; it used to annoy the hell out of me when I'd spend $149.00 or $199.00 on an effects pedal...and have to buy an AC adapter for it (I despise using 9 volt batteries). But; it is what it is.
All you can do is make your aggravation known, and hope the "powers that be" take it into consideration.

In MY world...an extra twenty bucks here or there isn't gonna make or break me, and definitely not a deal breaker...it's just an extra step that you take or don't take depending on your wants and needs.

There are LOTS of restaurants now, that don't automatically bring you a glass of water when you sit down, because a lot of people leave the table with full glasses of water sitting there to waste. Perhaps manufacturers have taken THAT philosophy---"why ship a footswitch with the amp if it's only gonna sit in a closet, or end up on Craigslist"?
