Thanks for your help guys the Jr's got the same guts. in fact, i wish i could have found a Jr when i got my EB Volume, since my pedal doesn't fit entirely on my board and it kinda {censored}s things up.

The active model is lower impedance, but still passive in the traditional sense of the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members iwo Posted August 11, 2006 Members Share Posted August 11, 2006 what about Boss volume pedals like the newer 500 series pedals? I like the minimum volume setting feature so that if I happen to play on singel channel amp then I can preset the cleanest needed and dont have to think and concentrate too much on how accurately I press the pedal...
