I have a light goodrich volume pedal that was bought second hand it has broken beyond my ability to repair it. Can anyone tell me how I can contact Goodrich to get a repair done on it.

You say it is a "light" pedal. Does it have the small light bulbs inside? I don't believe Goodrich will repair those old pedals. In fact, I have heard stories about them not returning those pedals if you send them in for repair. There are liability concerns about a/c powered pedals and moisture. I don't know who started such rumors. Image

Lee,
Believe me, it's no rumor! My light pedal was acting up and I sent it to Goodrich. They would not return it to me because of liability problems. This pedal plugs right into the wall without the aid of a wall wart. So your pedal is running at full voltage. I guess on a wet stage you ran the risk of getting fried. They allowed me a generous credit towards a new, pot pedal however. Goodrich has always treated me fair and square.

It works at full voltage? Wow, I didn't know that. Many times I've been in a puddle by the end of the show.

Chris,
I am referring to the volume pedal that Goodrich put out a number of years ago. I don't want anyone to confuse it with the model they are currently producing.
