I have a newer model Hilton (detachable wallwart) that comes on TO TO quick. With just minimum movement of the pedal, it Blares almost wide open. Any adjustment that can be made?

There should be a small pot on the bottom left side.
That is the ajustment for that. Turn it carefully, if
you turn it past the stop point, you'll ruin the pot.

Terry,

I have one of the new Hiltons(Pro Guitar) and mine has an adjustment knob on the right side to determine when it starts to produce volume.

Here is a demo.

Thanks guys. Jim, I don't have the Pro Guitar model which has the knob on the out side, but maybe the screw on the bottom like Carl is talkin about will help. But actually, I think I need more stiffness in the pedal, and not sure if there's an adjustment for that. I thought maybe the two allen head screws on each side just needed tightening a little but they won't tighten.
I'll email Keith and see what he says. Thanks
