I have used the pedal for bending, Gary, and it does a pretty good job, but now I'm using it as a volume pedal 100% of the time.

I find it far more useful in that mode.

When I comped behind a vocalist or soloist I used to have one registration button for the comp sound volume, and another louder one for my leads. I now have the volume pedal set to control only the Right Hand sounds, and it works much better than the former method.
