FV-500-H : Fantastic work from Boss as usual!

12 years ago

Its made by Boss so as you can expect its near enough unbreakable. Really impressed with this and a definite improvement on my Ernie Ball Volume pedal that became faulty on a few occasions. The metal enclosure feels really rugged and I have had no issue in using this day after day, it has been faultless. The only minor issue I have encountered has been when using the tuner output, this is a fault that is found in nearly all volume pedals, what you will find is a distinct drop in the treble (top end) of your tone. This can be easily fixed by placing a good quality dedicated buffer after the volume pedal, I personally use a JHS Little Black Buffer but there is loads that would do the job. Another feature I really liked is the ability to change the rigidity of the pedal sweep with a small screw underneath. Excellent buy and something that will last for many year!
