Members Matter-Eater Lad Posted May 8, 2006 Members Share Posted May 8, 2006 Could you put a volume pot in an enclosure, add a footswitch and when engaged would it act the same as the volume pot in the guitar? Totally passive, on the pedalboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hempathy Posted May 8, 2006 Members Share Posted May 8, 2006 Yes, absolutely no problem. I believe someone was selling something similar for the effects loop of your amp, basically a "master volume" box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Matter-Eater Lad Posted May 8, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 8, 2006 Yeah I've seen talk of those on here. I just want an instant volume drop at the touch of a switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members hempathy Posted May 8, 2006 Members Share Posted May 8, 2006 If you have a clean boost pedal usually they can be turned below unity gain. Even an EQ pedal could do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Matter-Eater Lad Posted May 8, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 8, 2006 I do have a GE7. I tried it. The only problem was noise. Hiss. What I like about my volume pot is that as I turn it down, it loses some bass & retains highs thanks to a .001 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
