Review by Bob Lanzetti / Guitarist, Snarky Puppy

The Goodrich Volume Pedal runs contrary to my standards of having pedals of limited size, but it is worth it to me and worth reviewing when looking for best guitar pedals. This pedal’s subtlety and expressiveness has made it a favorite among pedal steel musicians, where pedal volume is almost a part of the instrument. It’s also becoming a major part of my sound, it’s versatility that lets me get smooth, slow crescendos really. It is particularly useful when used in synth-like pads and, alongside the Nemesis delay, for pedal-steel-like slide play.

Goodrich Volume Features:

  • Heavy-Duty Aluminum Casing
  • Long-Life Potentiometer
  • 2 Outputs

Goodrich 120 Volume Pedal

The Goodrich Volume Pedal runs counter to my criteria of wanting small sized pedals but, to me, it is worth it. The subtlety and expressiveness provided by this pedal has made it a favorite among pedal steel musicians, where the pedal volume is almost a part of the instrument. It’s also become an important part of my sound, it’s flexibility that helps me to really get smooth, slow crescendos. It is especially useful when used in synth-like pads and for pedal-steel-like slide play alongside the Nemesis delay.

A lot of effect pedals nowadays often try to replicate the sounds of earlier devices or techniques. A pedal like the Nemesis is trying to pack a tape delay, a bucket-brigade analog delay, a digital delay, and much more into one small , portable box, and do a great job at it.
