Visual Sound had a great idea with their Visual Volume pedal....however,
they don't make them anymore.  I guess the idea didn't catch on.  Contrary
to the posts here, my Visual Volume pedal is definitely *not*
transparent...it has a definite roll off in the high frequenices....and
after only a few months of light use, the pot is already scratchy.  In 
other
words, I'm still waiting for that perfect volume pedal.
