If I allow my work to get between my heart and the Master, it will be of little worth. We can only effectually serve Christ as we are enjoying Him. It is while the heart dwells upon His powerful attractions that the hands perform the most acceptable service to His name; nor is there anyone who can minister Christ with unction, freshness, and power to others, if he is not feeding upon Christ in the secret of his own soul. True, he may preach a sermon, deliver a lecture, utter prayers, write a book, and go through the entire routine of outward service, and yet not minister Christ. The man who will present Christ to others must be occupied with Christ for himself.

Do you mean high or low value, like the 25K and 250K Ernie Ball pedals?

If so, the 25K is designed for active outputs. It gives a more predictable taper when inserted in line after an onboard preamp, EMG pickups, or a pedal that is always-on, or doesn't have true bypass. The 25K pretty much has to go after some sort of active preamp or pedal. If you plug a passive bass straight into it without some sort of buffer, it will load the bass down and make it sound mushy.
The 250K is designed to go right after a passive instrument (or a passive instrument into a rarely-on pedal with true bypass). The 250K will work after pedals, but the taper will be a little off- not so great for swells.

Okay, so the bass I play most of the time has active pickups, but everyone once in a while I play my Squier Jazz with Basslines. Which vol pedal would I want to get?
