        OK, OK, sorry for the use of “naked” in the title, it just seemed to fit the description.

        I have owned a TC Electronics Ditto Looper pedal for just over one year. It is a great pedal however, I was recently thinking about selling it. I was just not able to use it to my satisfaction and was becoming frustrated. You see, my situation is a little different than most. Due to a motorcycle accident a few years ago, I am unable to use my legs. I use the Looper by rapidly activating it with my strumming/picking hand. The problem is that the switch is just to small to use with my hand. I was discussing this with our good friend Bryce, (from Alaska) and he came up with a possible solution. (Bryce to the rescue!) He suggested I check out barefootbuttons and see if their “button” would work. Yes, it works great and I am now able to use the looper as intended! The original design of this button is to allow folks to use their pedals while playing barefoot.

        Even though most of us don’t play our guitars on the beach in Hawaii, you may find the “button” useful if you do play/practice in the house without your shoes. These buttons will fit a variety of pedals. Check out: http://www.barefootbuttons.com

          Yeah! I am so glad the Barefoot Buttons are still working for you.
