Bio: I am really a novice builder relative to most out there and more as a hobby but I guess you can say a serious hobby. I have built the Ultimate amp starting from a JCM800 with power scaling, extra gain stage, aux power supply, and modified to take any octal power tube based on Kevin's works. This amp is really the latest and greatest for me and galactic grounding from TUT book and am extremely happy with the build. Ultra quiet and sounds awesome the way I like it.

I'm currently implementing a switch that will select between an SIR 34 AND 36 mod on a JCM800. SIR 36 adds an extra gain stage. I have it currently on a toggle switch with no relays or anything fancy. Would the the relay kit offered work well with this? I noticed in the picture it has a cliff jack mounted on the board. Is this to plug in a footswitch? Would I be able to incorporate both a toggle switch and footswitch with the kit? So if using a footswitch for example would bypass the toggle switch. And with no foot switch connected I could also use the toggle switch.

I've never implemented anything using relays for switching before and would like to learn about this.
