I have an older goodrich 120 pot pedal and when I use it with my Nashville 400 there is a crackle and a bit of breakup when I first engage it. I used my fender amp and noticed that there was no breakup or crackle so I was assuming it was the amp. It makes more sense however that the pot is bad or dusty and needs cleaned/replaced. Anyone else have this issue? Thanks _________________ Mullen G2 SD10 , Lil Izzy Buffer, Goodrich 120 volume pedal, Boss DD-7, Peterson Strobo flip, Peavey Nashville 112 |

Not sure why it would do that on one amp and not another. I do know that a lot of my friends have had bad experiences with the pots on those pedals, new and old. I have been fortunate, mine has gone strong for 2+ years but I think the pots are hit or miss. Sometimes cleaning helps, sometimes not. How long have you had it? |

I have had it for maybe 10 months but it has been used when I got it. Its a really early goodrich 120 with the chrome decal with black lettering. Im guessing its an earlier model. _________________ Mullen G2 SD10 , Lil Izzy Buffer, Goodrich 120 volume pedal, Boss DD-7, Peterson Strobo flip, Peavey Nashville 112 |
