you can replace it with any momentary switch, really. The actual switches
Gibson uses can be bought from Mouser, http://www.mouser.com. It's very
easy to fix yourself, the pedal is quite simple. (you need some nominal
soldering skills, though.)

Gibson has a repair operation set up for the echoplex now, and they seem
quite capable and friendly to me. Contact Shane Radtke
<sradtke@gibson.com>, 1-800-544-2766 x206 or (847) 741-7315 x206. I think
Shane is on the list.
