| Pot-type volume pedals aimed at steelers generally come with 500 k pots (or 470 k pots, essentially the same thing). Pedals marketed to armpit guitarists (such as Ernie Ball) are often 250 k, which is fine for the somewhat lower impedance of pickups in those instruments. |

The Dunlop 470 k pot sold by forum member Tom Bradshaw (and others) is a fine choice for replacement.
If you do a search you'll probably find dozens of informative threads on pots here. |

Dennis,
Professional volume pedals come with a 470-500k pot. This has been the standard in the industry for many years.
IMHO, Goodrich has the finest pot on the market today and they stand behind it 100%.
I sell the Goodrich volume pedals.
I also sell the volume pots separately and will even pre-wire it for you.
I will be happy to send you a price list if you will just email me.
Thanks,
Bill
