Ernie Ball 500K Stereo Volume/Pan Pedal. The Ernie Ball 500k Stereo Volume Pedal features a 500k potentiometer suitable for the audio path of passive or active instruments. Attached to the footplate is a switch that provides the user two distinct operating modes (volume or pan). The stereo 500k pedal is extremely versatile and can be used in stereo or mono applications.
