 Fender FVP-1 Volume PedalThe challenger is the Fender FVP-1 Volume Pedal. Next up is a pedal that's a bit different from the previous models we've looked at. It’s a big, chunky unit that's tank-like. That makes it a superb choice for anyone who wants sturdiness and durability.

When you lower the volume, it enhances the high frequencies to create an effect that should be heard to be appreciated. That means that it doesn't simply alter your volume, as it acts as an effects pedal too.
