Expression pedal .. which one?

I've have around 5 pedals that have an expression pedal input, but I don't own one. Which one do you folks recommend. Something that gets the job done for small $$.

Thanks, Steelyfan

M-Audio is decent, adjustable, and can be had for about $29 I believe. I like mine. I hear from a few companies that they used the Moog to calibrate their circuits... going to get my hands on one of those soon.

Best one being made today is the Toneczar modded expression pedal. Expensive though. Basically 2x the price. But it is sturdy and feels great.

Rocktron HEX...extremely sturdy. And doesn't take up much room on the pedalboard.

Not all expression pedals use the same value pot so not all pedals that use expression pedals can use different value pots. You better check what you need or your pedal won't be of any use.
