Any expression pedal bargains about?

Slimbert

I have a M Audio EX-P which I'm using with a Line 6 M5. It works, but it's not going to last very long under my size 12's and is about as smooth as a north sea ferry crossing.

I don't need anything bullet proof, but would prefer metal construction. I've got plenty of room on my board so foot print isn't an issue.

Any bargains I should be looking out for? I've never looked in to expression pedals before so have no idea what's available.

Any advice welcome and thanks in advance for any help! :-)

Expensive but the Mission pedals are built like bricks...my absolute favourite.

If you're just needing it purely for an expression pedal then the cheap bespecco volume pedal will do the trick. It's a bit like the boss one ie solid plastic....i mean unbreakable. You think metal is stronger but the hinges on those can break..i know!! As a volume pedal it suffer a bit of tone suck so I didn't keep the one I had very long. But as an expression pedal it's absolutely fine. If that is too cheap for your tastes and you might wanna use it for a volume pedal as well the the boss fv1000h.

IIRC The bespeco ones don't have the right impedances to work with boss roland stuff, which is why I ended up with an m-audio one. I'd say that a boss or roland expression/volume pedal  would be the next step up from the m-audio in terms of price/quality.
