Footswitches?

This is probably an incredibly stupid question but is there such thing as a universal footswitch for an amp? Or something similar? Because I lost the amp's actual footswitch in a move and need a new one. I'm asking because I'm currently working a super awesome deal out with a guy and the lack of a footswitch for the amp might be a dealbreaker. The amp's a Traynor YCS-50 Combo. Please and thanks. All help is greatly appreciated.

If it's a good deal the switch shouldn't be a deal breaker... There are replacement / generic switches you could get... I'm sure someone here could also make you one...

Lookin at the spec you'd just need a 3 switch pedal... Channel switch, reverb on/off, and effects loop in/out if you wanted to use the loop... You could always just use 2 for channel and reverb depending on how you want to use it...

Yeah, I think any good amp tech/pedal builder who knows what they're doin' could make one.

Those amp switches are stupid simple to make. Its just jacks and swiches.
