Unless you are really good with your pinky, a volume pedal as mentioned would be best.

Hi. This is my first post on this forum!

The volume knob on your guitar can be effective for the "violin effect"

the thing you have to be good at is doing it steady so it dosen't sound like the sound just cuts out.
Jimmy Page did in a song or two but I forgot which one...

CastIron, I see you have a crybaby and a crybaby from hell.

how do they compare, and is it worth the extra money for the Crybaby from hell?
