Got my new Hilton Volume Pedal from Keith last week and used it on a show at Country in the Country last weekend in Bear Valley Wisconsin. WOW! What a difference going from a pot pedal to the Hilton! Had to back the power off on the NV 1000 and everything was clear as a bell along with my new True Tones from Jerry Wallace. Thanks Keith for the great service and an outstanding pedal and thanks Jerry for outstanding TT's!! Can't beat the combination.

Is this the place to say thanks, Keith, as well? I got my new Hilton volume pedal just two weeks ago, and the difference really IS fantastic. Never going back to the old type, not at all. Amazing how one pice of equipment can change and redirect your focus.
Congrats on creating a great product. |

Does anyone know how the Hilton pedal works with the XR16? Thanks! |

Kirk, does it seem the TT PUs produce a "hotter" signal? I know my old MSA with single pole PUs is much hotter than my carter. Just curious.

Can you use a battery with the Hilton, or must you use an external power source? |

David- The TT's just balanced out the highs and lows for me. The breaking class shrillness went away and I got a better bottom end too. Doesn't seem to be hooter that I can tell but the Hilton made everything hotter and had to readjust the amp to a lower volume level. |

Larry , there is no place for a batt. on the Hilton so you have to use an external power supply

Adrienne, I have a Carter with a XR-16 and a Williams with a 710 and it works great on both.
I have also switched back and forth between the pot pedal (with new pot) and the Hilton is much cleaner sounding as it doesn't attenuate the highs quite as much.
