WTB expression pedal for HX FX

I need an expression pedal to use with my hx fx.  What have you got?

I use the Line 6 pedal. It works as it should and there are no funny behaviours or loss of range that other people seem to be getting from other pedals. It's not, however, a very sexy pedal and it might not take harsh treatment too well - but mine works fine and I look after it. There's a Mission Engineering pedal that also works with the HX.

From memory, the spec Line 6 are looking for with this unit is a tip/sleeve connection with a 10KOhm linear potentiometer in the pedal. 

People say they can get other pedals working with it, but you never really know if they're getting the full range of CC values being calculated from the full range use of the pedal. I've heard people say things like "I use it as a volume pedal but it never goes totally quiet".

@Jonathanthomas83 has one - I just bought one off him:

He's a very nice chap. You should buy it from him.

Thank you for the kind words @PC_Dave that means a lot! What a gentleman.

Yep EP-1 is a great expression pedal. Yours if you want it @relic245 ;

I've got a Line 6 expression pedal you can have for £20 delivered. I bought it thinking it would work as a standard expression pedal but that turned out not to be the case so while it's in tidy enough condition, I've never actually tested it myself.

Thanks, after googling it there seems to be people reporting issues with this pedal and the hx FX do thanks but I'll pass.

Thanks, I want but mostly for home use this is probably a bit over engineered for my needs. also a bit over budget

Thanks, thats a good price but I feel a bit uncomfortable buying it if you're not 100% sure that it's working.

One of these will work with a stereo (TTS insert I believe) cable (shameless for sale thread plug) http://www.thefretboard.co.uk/discussion/154423/fs-ernie-ball-volume-pedal-jr-60-delivered#latest
