I have recently begun to experience occasional drop outs of volume with my pedal. I searched through the forums and didn't find anything.

Anyone else ever have this problem?

Ricky, thanks for using my volume pedal. Sounds to me like it could be one of 2 problems. Is the pedal getting power all the time. Any loss of power even for a split second will cause a loss of signal output.
The only other thing it could be would be the film in the front part of the top half of the pedal. Is there anything on this film? If this does not fix your pedal, send it to me: Keith Hilton 248 Laurel Road Ozark, Missouri 65721. Include a note describing the problem, with your e-mail address. Thanks!

Thanks guys for using my pedal. Larry, my pedal doesn't help you play any better, but it does help you look more handsome to women.

Hey,Keith, if the Hilton pedal makes you look handsome, I'll have to guess that you're using an old DeArmand gear drive pedal.

I can't say enuff for my Hilton. I'm hearing stuff coming out of my amp that I've never heard before. I'm sure it was all there, but not until Keith's pedal brought it out did I really HEAR.

I'm real happy now with my set-up and Keith's volume pedal leading the way.

Thanks again, Keith.
