BOSS: FV-50


My latest pedal is battery-free; a volume controller, BOSS FV-50.
My ZOOM volume pedal couldn't cut volume entirely because it's quite aged & the pot requires some looking into. Rather than parts replacement, it's wiser (cost-wise) to invest in a fresh unit. I prefer eliminating volume during play than utilizing a noise suppressing pedal these days as the threshold control does affect tone, also, when I lower the guitar's volume knob for some vintage tone crunch, the weaker signals from the guitar get totally gated-out during play.
