From my collection of stuff I pulled out a Goodrich L10K today and noticed it uses a battery. Someone tell me about this pedal. Why the battery? I have another Goodrich pedal that does not use a battery.
What is the difference in these pickups other than the fact that one uses a battery? Is there drain on the battery if cables are plugged in? Any comment you have will be appreciated. Thanks. |

The link will give you the info you seek. The battery will drain if the cords are left plugged in when not in use. Typically a battery will last 6 months or so. These are my favorite pedals. I've tried many other pedals but always come back to the L-10K. |

I have two of the H10K's and I only change the batteries every couple of years. I leave one at the church where I play, and use the other one for practice at home. I use them 8 - 10 hours per week. The batteries I take out still test good, I don't know how long they would last if I left them in. They are 10 to 12 years old and I've only had to change one pot. _________________ Darvin Willhoite

my favorite pedal, also. i rarely change the battery...maybe once a year, but doesn't really need it. these record better clean sound than anything. if i had a million dollar telonics/mullen designer/boutique pedal, i would spend days trying to make it sound and feel like this...so why bother? |
