Passive Volume pedal problem

[codylee502]

Hello everyone,

I recently moved into a new apartment, and after setting up my gear, I've come across 2 problems:

1) The output on the amp is considerably less - mostly gain-wise.
2) The volume pedal no longer swells from silent (heel down) to full volume (toe down). It's either off (heel down) or completely open (as soon as you begin to rock forward from the heel down position).

Assuming the gain/output issue was associated with the volume pedal not swelling, I decided to run the guitar straight into my amp, instead of the volume pedal first, and the amp sounded normal - normal output/gain.

So, does anyone have any idea what I could have possibly done while moving to cause the volume pedal to act this way?

Any suggestions on repair?

Thanks,

- Cody

hello cody

welcome to the forum!

if this is an ernie ball volume pedal you can ask customer service for advice. call or email, the details are on the music-man.com site

if this is not an ernie ball pedal an open forum might be a better option. ernie ball customer service is top notch, but supporting other manufacturers is probably not the best thing to do business wise

hth!
