I"ve had my HD500 for about five months. I bought it because a footswitch on my HD300 went intermittant, and because repair time to/from Line6 takes many weeks, I thought I'd get the 500 to carry me through. I got the 300 back eventually and keep it in reserve. Now the FS5 button on the 500 is "INTERMITTANT", and my busy season is starting Oct 1st, so I could be out of luck again. Are there any "legal" quick fixes for these stomp buttons or am I in for another two month wait time? My first line6 product, was a new Flextone amp, so you can see I've been a loyal guitar picker. Thanks for your time, eh?
