For those of us who own pot type volume pedals, a new pot has been developed by Canadian company PEC. They have been making pots for a long time, but they were notoriously short lived. Now they have developed a new audio taper 500K model called the HL (High Life), and is marketed by Goodrich.

Very clean lines Ken if it performs as well as it looks it will be the biz! I noticed Gerry gives it a mention on his site.

Is there anywhere in the UK we can buy these, the P&P from the US is about double the actual cost of the pot!

Geoff, if there are any of these pots at the Dallas show, I'll buy a couple and bring them back to Blighty for anyone here who is interested. I will charge whatever they cost me plus p&p. ;)
