I've done a lot of searching on volume pedals, but wound up more confused that when I started. I don't want to cheap out, but I don't want to break the bank either. I would appreciate any recommendations for a volume pedal for about $200, used is OK.

Thanks.

You can get a nice Goodrich pedal for way less than $200.00 Very Happy

Thanks. That's the way I was leaning, but thought I should get some expert advice.

As long as the pot is OK, most any pedal will serve the purpose. Very Happy

Hi Wade,

If you would prefer a new in the box Goodrich H120 with full warranty, I can sell you one for just a "little" more than $200 inc. shipping in the lower 48.

There is nothing wrong with buying used, but so many times you have to put in a new pot/string and that adds $40-$50 to your cost and you have no warranty.

Or I have a trade in on the way to me H120, that I will completely restore and adjust and can sell for a little under $200. It will be about a week or 10 days from now.

If I can be of service, let me know.

Bill

I've found that when the pot is ok, everything falls into place! Smile

Thanks, I'll definitely keep that in mind.

Check guitar center and other online retailers who sell used gear. I got a used Hilton pedal for $150.00 and $25.00 for a 5 year warranty. A lot of times the big box stores have no idea what to do with psteel specific gear. There are good deals out there if you look.
