Of course. I'm not looking to disparage the pedal or Keith, if he can't replicate the problem I had, he obviously can't fix it.

My needs are simple. It needs to go silent in the full off position or be adjustable to do this when needed. Smooth, even taper. Holds position when you take your foot off.

I had some noise problems, both electrical and physical, that Keith was unable to replicate when the pedal got back to him to check out. Rather than sending a replacement, he chose to send a refund.

So, that didn't work out and now I'm in the market for a different volume pedal. What are you guys liking these days?

so do you use alot of volume pedal action playing bass?

I do. I'll do subtle flutters imitating tremolo, quick swells to shape notes, controlled sustain, fine level control to enhance dynamics, qui ...

OK, I knew about the new model for guitar players but didn't know it was named "pro".

I wouldn't have expected a steel guitar player to get one of those.

Getting tired of the problems with pot pedals.

Anyone know the typical wait time?

Oh man, I miss my Checkmate 50! Mine had replacement speakers and it bore the scars of where someone had tried to wire in a tweeter.

GREAT tremolo on that thing.

Good company. I'm a bassist who got his first pedal steel three days ago.

Wow. I spent a few hours last night going through the suggested copedents on the site, as well as some of the ones in the 400 manual. Ended up back with my console tuning, but changed the pedals aroun ...

Hey Tony, thanks! That one was so light.
