Song suggestions for Volume-Pedals

[Julian Penz]

Hey guys!✌ Today I bought a Volume-Pedal. The Ernie Ball Volume Pedal Junior. The Problem now is, that I don’t really know what I could play with it. So I’m asking YOU for some cool songs to get a feeling for and how to use it correctly. Thanks guys

Volumes are probably more commonly used in a live setting to control how loud you are with the band. I lot of guys have used it as an effect though. Its usually used to take the initial attack off of a note so you dont hear the pick. Its just a smooth note. Here’s a video of Kirk and Jason from metallica that uses a volume pedal that does this. The most important thing is to just use it and find your own ways of using it. Have fun!

Any other suggestions?

Yeah, you could do this if you have a delay. Yngwie uses his volume knob on his guitar, but you could totally do it with the volume pedal as well.
