The Yamaha pedal has given me years of reliable service.

EB pedals are the top of the class. EB, DeArmond, and Visual Sound (needs power) are the only serious volume pedals I have ever really seen.since the 70's.  There are other OK ones but they are all have real issues: injection molded, too light, wide tolerances, pivot on the floor, need batteries, ac. Even the great  reverse engineers at Behringer hosed this up. I believe that you need to be able to change, clean or service the pot and nominally adjust the throw (gearing) .

Ernie Ball volume pedals are well made. WW-BJH uses one with his M400.
