I have finally decided to invest in some pedals I think will be useful. As well as the Boss TU-2 tuner, and the Boss GE-7 eq, I'm looking for a straightforward volume pedal. If anyone can recommend one, or recommend a place to buy the above pedals at a reasonably low price (I've only seen them online for £50 or more) I would be very grateful.

And Morley is a bit cheaper - $79.99 for either of their volume pedals (Volume Plus, Little Alligator) in the USA compared to $99.99 for the Ernie Ball VP-Junior. So... Morley should consequently be cheaper in the UK, I'd hope.

It's built rock solid, is easy to fix later on down the road (the pot has a solder-less harness, and the kevlar string is a breeze to replace), and it works and sounds great! I would have to disagree about the price though, as I got mine for $60 from Guitar Center. You really just need to look for the sales.  |

Also I'd go for the Korg DT-10 tuner, i just got mine and from my experience, its soooo much better than my old boss tuner. But thats just my opinion.

so I'm saving up for an EB
