EB6181 VP JR Volume Pedal : The best of the rest

10 years ago

I needed a low impedance volume pedal for ambient swells. A high impedance pedal would effect the amount of dirt in my signal and I didn't want that. The sweep of the Ernie Ball is great, it's what made me decide to spring for it in the end.

But the exposed innards will gather dust quite quickly and the string is notorious for breaking. I just made peace with the fact that this pedal will give me problems as it did have the best sweep, and it is a kind of best of the rest pedal.

I feel like the market is crying out for a pedalboard friendly sized low impedance volume pedal without all the issues of the VP JR.
