Description

This compact volume pedal is tough and no nonsense – designed for gigging guitarists. You can adjust the taper of the volume curve to give different effects.

Here’s what Ernie Ball say about the 6180 Volume Pedal

The potentiometer has a 250k ohm resistance suitable for the audio path of passive instruments. Behind the jack area under the footplate is a micro taper switch which provides the user two distinct volume swell rates. Overall Volume Pedal Junior dimensions: 3.5″ W x 10″ L x2 3/8″ H . The main pivot shaft is of centerless ground 1/2′ diameter stainless steel, precision seated though nylon bushings at both ends. Tough long lasting Kevlar cable transmits pedal travel to the controls and is attached by stainless steel springs.

About the manufacturer

Ernie Ball

Ernie Ball is best known for strings and player accessories, but the current GPAS selection also includes volume pedals and pedal-power equipment. Products such as the MVP and VP JR volume pedals sit alongside the Volt DC supply, pedalboard accessories and Slinky strings. Compare taper, gain or boost functions, output requirements, cable layout, string gauge and pack contents rather than treating every Ernie Ball listing as the same type of product.

Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

Volume Pedals

A volume pedal places a foot-controlled attenuator in the audio path, varying level without changing the instrument itself. Potentiometer value and active or passive design determine impedance compatibility, sweep shape and high-frequency retention. Placement before gain changes both loudness and distortion response; placement later behaves more like a master level. Minimum-volume, tuner and stereo connections extend the basic function.
