| | | | I dont know how old your pedal is, I havnt used any EH pedals since the 1970's, but they were all notorious for loud pops when turning the pedal on. The problem is cheap switches getting dirty (remember that EH was considered a budget pedal during the 70s, Morley and MXR were pro units). |

| | | | I had the same thing happen to MXR Blowtorch. Annoying pop noise every time I switch it on. Total deal breaker for live play to me. Although, I was told that a guy could mod it for a less true bypass and replace the switch. I didn't go with it though, I'm keeping my Swollen Pickle, no pops there.
