Peter	Re: Stomp box switches? Ivan, I use these switches you describe, with kind of a big M on top and made in Japan...I order these from Maplin in the UK (http://www.maplin.co.uk order number FH93B for 4,9Ł Uk pounds a piece) You can go to the Maplin website, type in the order code and you get a picture. I can't tell you anything about reliability though, I just starting building my own effects, and all the seven times I've stomped on these switches, they worked I just ordered a shitload of these, so they better be good. If these are the same switches you are talking about then $10 is way to much, 4,9Ł UK pounds is equivalent to $7,4 US dollars...try Maplin, they are really fast with deliveries. Peter.
