The Yamaha pedal has given me years of reliable service.

EB pedals are the top of the class. EB, DeArmond, and Visual Sound (needs  
power) are the only serious volume pedals I have ever really seen.since the  
70's.  There are other OK ones but they are all have real issues:  
injection molded, too light, wide tolerances, pivot on the floor, need  batteries, 
ac. Even the great  reverse engineers at Behringer hosed this  up. I believe 
that you need to be able to change, clean or service the pot and  nominally 
adjust the throw (gearing) .

Ernie Ball volume pedals are well made. WW-BJH uses one with his  M400.
