Detail 01
Cord (the string) plus spring
These are the two wear parts inside the pedal. The cord drives the pot as you rock the treadle; the spring keeps tension on it.

Ernie BallVolume Pedal Cord & Spring Kit
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Replacement cord and spring set for Ernie Ball volume pedals. A repair part, not an upgrade — buy it when your pedal's string or spring gives out.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Volume pedal that has gone dead or sticky from a broken cord
- Keeping a spare in the gig bag for a pedal you rely on
- Restoring a used Ernie Ball volume pedal you picked up cheap
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Anyone whose pedal problem is the pot, not the cord
- Owners of volume pedals from other brands
- Players wanting to change the pedal's taper or sweep
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Kit, not a whole assembly
You are replacing consumable parts inside a working pedal, not swapping the potentiometer or the housing.
Detail 03
Ernie Ball specific
Sized for Ernie Ball volume pedals. Other brands use different lengths and anchor points.
Detail 04
Under five dollars
Cheap enough to keep two on hand. A broken cord kills a pedal mid-set with no workaround.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01Requires opening the pedal — you supply the screwdriver and the patience

- 03Confirm your pedal model matches before ordering
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01How do I know if my cord is broken?
The treadle moves freely with no change in volume, or it feels loose and slack. A working pedal has firm resistance through the whole sweep.
02Does this fit any volume pedal?
It is made for Ernie Ball volume pedals. Other brands use different cord lengths and spring tensions, so it will not fit reliably.
03Is this hard to install?
It means opening the pedal and routing the cord around the pot pulley. Doable with basic tools, but it is fiddly the first time.
04Should I buy a spare?
At this price, yes if you gig. The cord is the part most likely to fail, and it fails without warning.
