  • Whats the go to volume pedal these days?

    Been years since I have used one, but doing a lot of modern worship now days, I'm looking hard at them again. What's the go to for something that's transparent and reliable without breaking the bank?

    I bought a Morley mini volume wah, and used it for a few months, then I went back to the big 'ol clunky Dunlop that I've loved for thirty years.
    Of course it weighs two pounds and won't fit on my pedalboard. But it has a nice wide sweep and just the right taper.

      I use the mini Morley. I have no problem with the sweep. I moved from the big silver Morley to the mini easily. I think the range is the same it just appears to tighter because of the shorter pedal.

        The common one I see at our church is a small brown one from Amazon, SONICAKE Vexpress. I don't use a volume pedal. Can't get used to them so I do swells with my pinky on the volume knob.

          The feel and throw of a Dunlop Volume X is fantastic.

              I rock mine to 80% for rhythm and dime it for leads. I am not really a swells guy at least not with the volume pedal.

                AMT optical volume pedal. 3 settable ranges of volume control. All the volume with no tone suck.

                  That one is interesting! I have a pair of old Russian George Dennis Optical Wah Pedals that I have been running for over 20 years.

                    Same here on doing swells with the guitar volume mostly. There is something cool however about doing a swell in at full gain from the start. I play modern worship mostly now, and I am looking for a volume to run in my loop after the amp pre and any dirt.

                      Thru Tone makes a wonderful volume pedal by modding Ernie Ball pedals. They work actively or passively and have a cool blue light, too.
