I'm having a problem with my VP Jr. When I have it plugged in I lose like half of my volume. I still have the sweep but the volume just drops to half and I cant figure out why. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Ps: cables have been tested and all work fine
 
can i have the solutions, i have almost the same problem. My sound dont cut an half is almost off but we can hear a little little part of son. Its just not off. :(
 
I'm curious. This is a common thing with EB volume pedals, and fairly easy to adjust. Why not post it here for the world to see? Yes, send a PM, but it ain't a state secret....tell EVERYBODY how to fix it!
 
~Cause, I adjusted mine with pliers & brute force....I'd like to learn the CORRECT procedure for adjusting the sweep, please!
 
Kirbster,

Here is a link to Vol. Pedal repair:

The pulley set screw(tightens to pot shaft) can become loose, you will need to remove the string/spring then tighten set screw to pot shaft with 3/32" hex key, pot should be set to zero, then re-install the string/spring.

If you have any questions please email me: [email protected]
