The GW10 features a “hidden” switch for
disabling effect block on/off control with the
Foot Controller.
Doing this also gives you
increased range in the Foot Controller opera-
tion.
Normally, the Foot Controller range stops
not at the absolute maximum, but at the point
where spring pressure starts.
By disabling on/
off control, the Foot Controller range can be
extended to cover up to the absolute maximum.
NOTE
Disabling the effect on/off control here
also disables Tuner on/off control with the Foot
Controller.
However, an alternate method for
turning on the Tuner function is available; see
the Hint on page 41.
To disable both the mechanical spring and
the effect block on/off control:
1
Turn the power off.
2
Turn the GW10 upside down, and use a
Phillips screwdriver to take out the large
screw on the back plate.
3
With the screw out or sufficiently loosened,
use a slotted screwdriver to pry out the
plastic screw cap.
