Looking for the best cheap volume pedal, needs to be reasonably rugged... suggestions please.

I used to use a bespeco one that was fairly decent, that's about the cheapest you can go. I'm now using a Morley mini volume which is even better, I had to adjust the leds in it to get the taper I wanted, but that was an easy job.

I really like my Ernie Ball Volume Jr.
Billet Aluminum + griptape feel, no wah pedal duh-duh-duh in increments, and decently priced on the used market. Doing just fine after 6+ years now.

There used to be a GuitarTech one that I liked the look of that had min and max volume level pots, with a passive boost at the highest level. It seems to have been discontinued but I've spotted an Artec one that is identical (probably the same pedal, in fact).

Bought a bespeco just to see if I use it as much as I think, then I might trade up if I do.

Thats exactly what I did. The bespeco one does the job pretty well too so you may not even need to upgrade, I only did as I bought a pedaltrain mini and wanted a volume that would fit on that.dezb1 wrote:Bought a bespeco just to see if I use it as much as I think, then I might trade up if I do.

Is the plastic tough enough to survive live use?

Just arrived its not a bespeco its made buy a company called meridian but its identical... they ran out of mono pedals so they sent me a stereo version can't argue with that for £15, the same bespeco stereo pedal costs £31 on eBay.

Those look great, but apparently you can't get the volume down to zero when the pedal is fully 'open'ekwatts wrote:There used to be a GuitarTech one that I liked the look of that had min and max volume level pots, with a passive boost at the highest level.

+1 for the Ernie Ball VP Jr. Great pedal, does the job. I do NOT use the tuner out, nor have i ever. Not for any reason (i just keep my tuner in line) but apparently people complain about using it or something. Cant help you there ha
