| Just bought a steel for my daughter who lives in LA. Gave up my good volume pedal and other items for her to use--so I need to replace and update. I have a Zumsteel from the mid-80’s (great guitar) and a new Nashville 112. Haven’t played regularly for 30 years but want to start back up...need advice on good effects setup and volume pedal. Recommendations? Thanks so much. |

| Goodrich 120 for volume pedal. It's been used by steelers for decades. Built like a tank. |

Thanks, Jim. Yes, that's pretty much how I always rolled back then. Had a rack-mounted delay for awhile, too. I'm trying to ascertain what today's players use. You are probably correct--the vast majority of time I'll rely on the amp and reverb. |

Thanks Eric. I had a Zum volume pedal that was good. I've heard good things about the Goodrich pedal. |

| Fender use to make a nice Tone/Volume pedal. Volume=Up Down, and Tone=side to side. |
