Boss VE-20 footswitch (Tactile switch or microswitch)

Description

This is the tactile switch that I have used for repairing Boss VE-20 pedals. I believe they’re also used in Boss RC300, VG88, V Bass, SL20, RT20, RC300, and GT6 units.

It’s a 2 pin tactile momentary switch with a raised actuator and a 6mm pic spacing. The Boss pedals (metal or plastic depending on model) have a rubber insert that pushes down on these microswitches to switch the circuits on.

This one was quite tricky to find and the supplier I bought them from won’t be supplying any more after these are gone.
