yeah i have been doing a little detective work. i think all i would need is a 10k pot and a stereo jack. i was thinking of making it out of wood cuz i gots tons of tools (saws, drills, shit. etc).

i was looking at the line 6 pedal (cuz it will be for my fm4 and dl4) and the cable is mono. i am thinking it might only take a mono jack though.
