I need to start thinking about an upgrade for my volume pedal. I have 5 yrs. and 4 pot. replacements on this one. Is this the norm. I play everyday but do not gig but once a month. Any input is apperciated.

There have been a lot of posts about not being able to find good pots.
Maybe you CAN find a good pot. My personal decision was to buy a Hilton pedal and never again have those problems.
After getting fed up with pot problems, some of my friends have now become believers in the Hilton pedal. Check it out here:

John,
this is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for your reply. I often see a Hilton for sale and I wonder why? I hear very good things about this volume pedal, but does anyone have any negatives about it. W.C. is sending me a KOOL SEAT and now I need a dependable foot rest. Where do I go?

You can buy one directly from Keith or several Steel Guitar "stores" sell them such as Bobbe Seymour's Steel Guitar Nashivlle, Herby Wallace, etc.
Like John, (both of us are electronics tech's), I too have given up on the pot volume pedals because of poor replacement pots and went to a Hilton about two years ago. No more hassle with a pot and no potential for the pulley string to break. |
