Amazon è sempre puntuale e precisa. Chi ha bisogno di un pedale volume non perda tempo con questo inutile aggeggio. Realizzato completamente in plastica risulta essere molto delicato. Inoltre contiene all'interno un potenziometro avvitato a delle placchette di plastica. Inoltre essendo la corsa del pedale troppo corta non si arriva mai al tutto aperto o al tutto chiuso.

...under some circumstances, this pedal adds an unacceptable amount of 60 cycle hum to my effects chain. It wasn't there before the introduction of the pedal to my pedal board.The specs show 9 volts and 10 milliamps, but this pedal has no active electronics in it. There is no buffer/amplifier inside, therefore no 9 volt DC battery is required. There's only a potentiometer inside of which the value is questionable since even the manufacturer's website does not disclose the value. Some pedalboard effect chains need a certain potentiometer value to work properly. If the "pot" is too low, all of your tone is sucked away. Unfortunately, I don't have a multimeter to measure the resistance on my own. It would be beneficial to know this value before making a purchasing decision..

Não funcionou, então não gostei de nda

using it for pedal steel - only used a couple of hours, but still works, seems sturdy, and controls volume from null to full as needed.edit 6 months later: stopped working, stayed at full volume. I opened it up (easy - 4 bottom screws) and saw that the nut holding the pot had loosened, letting the whole pot rotate instead of just the wiper shaft. Tightened the nut - easy fix.

Out of the box this product did not work. The aluminum fork inside was bent and disconnected and the mounting studs were broken. I should've known better by the cost of the item but I guess I learned my lesson. If you are thinking about purchasing this item, I suggest spending a little more and getting a Dunlap Crybaby instead. Weak product. Should be stripped from the shelves.

I hope it was a fluk and I just got the lemon in the batch but it did nothing no matter where I put the pedal it was same volume. I am sending back and waiting for a replacement and hope that for petes sake they check that this one actually works.It was not a bad pedal sent the first time,the replacement didn't work either.This is NOT a volume pedal for a guitar,it may work on a keyboard but does nothing no matter where in the line you place it in your effects pedals.

I had bought this pedal to control pads for music at my church and boy did I choose the right one. At this price point I figured it was going to be a cheap feeling pedal that was bound to break quickly, but after receiving it I was pleased to see that I was wrong.Thing feels solid, so much so I may be buying another one for my bass guitar. Good choice if you're looking for a good volume pedal at a good price.

After a few of the comments posted here and after having used this pedal for a week now, I wanted to write my own review on this pedal. Before I begin with the actual review, there are a few things I would like to clarify. First and foremost, please understand that I have been a musician for over 30 years now. My experience includes both stage and studio work and in addition to guitar, I also play bass, drums, some keys, etc.. In other words, I do very much know something about "effects pedals"...I've been using them for a LONG time now.Secondly, while I have no doubt that I will very likely use this as a simple volume control for my guitar (in place of having to fiddle with the volume knob on the guitar itself to adjust volume), my primary interest in this pedal was/is for use with my guitar synth...in this case a Roland GR-30 (along with a GK-2 pickup installed on an '96 Fender Strat). The GR-30 has some lovely and very convincing organ sounds and I wanted a basic volume pedal for doing "swells", ala Booker T, Deep Purple, etc....think Booker T & the MG's tune "Time is Tight". That said, in addition to the guitar synth, I have tested this pedal with both my Strats (with single coil pickups) as well as with my Ibanez Semi-hollow (a pair of humbuckers), so as to provide a well rounded test.I would like to mention that I did look at/consider a few other pedals before giving this one a shot. In searching for a volume pedal, I did of course consider the rather infamous Ernie Ball and while it's a passive pedal (which is what I was after) and while it has a metal construction that so many people seem to prize (more on that in a bit), considering the price, I have to say that stupid string really concerned me...and this concern grew when I saw that there are "repair kits" for these pedals which suggests those stupid strings do in fact tend to break (and Murphy's Law suggests that when that string does break, it will probably happen at a gig!)...just not something I wanted to risk $80+ on. Likewise, I did take a look at both Morley's and Behringer as well, however I very much wanted a simple passive pedal and not something that required batteries, a plug/adapter or that had any kind of "tone controls" (my guitar has tone controls, my amp has tone controls...why the devil do I need them on a volume pedal?). I also had no interest in a multi-fuction pedal either...I don't really need a "volume/wah combo" as I already have a wah pedal I'm quite happy with. Obviously such concerns narrowed the field rather significantly.Ok...all of that out of the way, I have to say that I am quite pleased with this pedal! I own other products from Quik Lok which have served me well, so I had high hopes for this pedal...so far it's met my expectations! The "plastic" construction is in fact quite heavy duty...unless you're the kind of moron who likes to destroy his gear simply for the sake of destroying his gear, then the plastic construction should not be an issue. A lesson I learned along time ago is that if you take care of your gear, it will take care of you! The truth of the matter is that a lot of companies have been making plastic pedal casings for years, including MXR, Arion, Digitech, etc.. I own pedals from all of these companies and while I can't speak for others, a plastic pedal has NEVER been an issue for me.Beyond the heavy duty plastic casing, I've found the operation of this pedal to be smooth with no issues concerning noise, any change in frequency, etc...and unlike some reviewers here, I do tend to have a rather discerning ear - this pedal does NOT sound thin or tinny in any way (nor is there any reason to suspect that it would unless someone is using something truly unconventional in their rig). With the synth, the Strats and my Ibanez, everything sounded just as it should. I would also add that the fact that this pedal is indeed passive (again something I wanted specifically) is certainly a plus...I already have more than enough "devices" that require batteries (including pedals, tuners, guitars with active pre-amps, etc) and more than enough power cables laying on the floor.In the smallest possible nutshell, this pedal does exactly what it's supposed to do! On that particular note, I would like to say (for those who may not know or understand the difference) that this is a volume pedal - it is NOT a boost pedal which is a different animal entirely. This device works in the same way the volume control on your guitar does...you use it to REDUCE the volume of your guitar (or signal chain, depending on where you have it linked in). If you are looking for a pedal that adds gain to your signal, this isn't it. If you're looking for something to add gain to your signal...honestly...buy a bigger amp. The way you would use this pedal would be to set your amp at the loudest volume you're likely to need...say for leads...then you would use this pedal to lower your volume to other playing conditions (such as rhythm parts).Now for the singular con... If I really have any niggle about this pedal at all, it's simply the sweep of the volume control...it's not quite as linear as I would personally prefer. Most of the volume change seems to occur at the low end of this pedal, so with only the slightest adjustment, it goes from "off" to "3" (using a guitar volume knob as a comparative illustration)...it really takes a very gentle touch to get it smooth on the lower volumes. With a delay pedal and other effects (ala Jeff Beck), it's not really THAT noticeable, however with a straight signal down in my studio, with no other instruments being played, it was enough to catch my attention. For most players in most situations I doubt this will be an issue, however because my primary use is again to control organ sounds on a guitar synth, I may very likely swap out the control pot somewhere down the road. That said, I would quickly add that I don't really see this as a design flaw in any way as much as my own rather picky tastes :-)Finally, I will simply ad that if you are looking for a basic, passive volume pedal...and assuming you're not some idiot who likes to abuse their gear...then this pedal is quite simply an unbeatable value! Well made, does what it should and great price...this gets 5 stars in my book!

UPDATE: Still a solid 4 stars. I haven't beat on this pedal, and I am still not seeing any major issues. I am no more impressed than when i first got it, but that's not a bad thing. Would still recommend this for anyone not needing "pro level" features from a volume pedal, or anyone not interested in "pro level" prices.So, it's a $20 volume pedal. It is not without it's faults, but I think for the price, you're not going to beat it. I would give 5 stars, but within 5 minutes of use, the screw that attaches the pedal mechanism to the shaft of the potentiometer slipped and I needed to reposition and tighten it again. This is not a terrible problem for anyone who has even the slightest bit of mechanical know-how.I also have a name brand volume pedal that looks very similar for comparison. Their build quality was very similar. The jacks on this have a plastic nut, but that's very easy to upgrade if you ever wanted to bother... I wouldn't. This pedal has a metal bottom plate, while the name brand did not. I don't really think there's much of a difference for longevity, considering most volume pedals get velcro'd to a pedal board and sit there. I'll probably get the stereo version (this one is mono) to compare to the name brand pedal.Opening up this one revealed just how not-fancy this type of accessory can be. It's an input jack, an output jack and a potentiometer. No secret there. Stereo versions look more complicated, and optical or fancier versions definitely have more to them, but for $20, this is exactly what I expected. Build quality matching that of the brand name exceeded my expectations.
