The band i am playing in wants to introduce everyone during the last song. They want me to begin playing my part "electric Rhythm guitar" while i am introduced. I found that attempting to adjust the guitar volume down for the introduction and then back up to normal playing volume after the introduction while playing was impossible unless i stopped playing so i could adjust the volume pot on the guitar. I thought getting a foot controlled volume pedal might solve the problem. After doing some research i discovered there are many affordable units but they all seem to have issues of strings breaking or scratchy pots or poor ergonomics or tone altering issues unless a buffer is added. I discovered there are mods for some of these, but thought i might be better off getting a pedal that works out of the box. There are a few expensive units $250 and up which don't seem to have any issues except that they cost three times more than the rest. Though i don't want to part with the cash i am thinking the Hilton Pro limited would be a good choice. Of the affordable pedals the Dunlop DVP1XL seems like a good unit. Curious to know what you are using and what you think of it.
This is one of a few volume pedal reviews i found. http://www.thegearpage.net/board/ind...swells.834299/
