    The Boss FV500 works well.
    Just be carefull when plugging in: it has two inputs and two outputs I think.

      Ok...

      Looking at the pictures of the internal pots;

      I'm more intrigued about the Ernie Ball

        Also, there are companies that make mods for EB pedals, like replacing the pot/string system with magnets.

          I like the build quality and slow feel of the EBs, my Morelys always seemed to get real dirty and and build static in the pots if you gigged a lot.

          Be careful about a Passive Volume pedal -the can be a real tone suck if not paired with the guitar pickups and electronics well

            Very true. Especially when you have a tuner plugged into the parallel out. I never understood why they are 250K and not 1M.
            Oh no.....


            Oh Yeah!

                Another happy FV500H owner. Although, even new, one input jack needs replaced. The plug will pop out if you sneeze. And it is huge.
