Need a volume pedal that doesn't suck!

Post by Caesar »

Any good volume pedals that won't kill my sound? The Ernie Ball VP Jr just kills the clean highs on my strat and tele.

Anyone use the Morley's with the opto circuit?

I gave up on my search for a good volume pedal. :/

I had a good one on the controller for an old Johnson digital/tube-hybrid amp.

I find em really useful when playing live, and missed it when I got rid of that amp...but I've read so much shit about almost every volume pedal out there (and also don't want to spend amp-style-money on one) that I gave up.

I occasionally use my Bud-wah in volume pedal mode, but I wouldn't recommend it as a end-all be-all solution.
