Needing replacement parts for 1985 Roland JC-120

[maxkutner]

Hi,

I recently retrieved a 1985 Roland JC-120 as a donation from a school and need to locate some replacements switches, pots and possibly more items to get it functional again.

Does anyone have any recommendations for where to find such items?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated!

It depends on where you are located. US? If so I would suggest Tayda or Stompboxparts.

Amplified Parts (@Amplified Parts) is a good source if you’re looking for amp-specific components.

Those switches are probably the old style cylindrical almost paddle-switch sorts of thing that Roland used to use a lot. I don't know a source for them, but if it is those, I'm pretty sure tayda and Amplified Parts don't have them. they schould be good for the rest of the stuff though.

If you find a source for those old style roland switches, please let me know too- I've hunted for them in the past and didn't find anything a few years ago.

Could a Roland dealer get some for you?

as a person who has repair a jc-120 and. Jc 50 its really going to depend specifically on the part needed and which version. If tou have ine of the old style chorus vibrato switches you are going to needed to study the schem and get a i believe 4pdt to work. 84 i think they changed from all transistor to op amp etc. you arent going to find one source if youre looking for authentic stuff.
