My opinion: it's absolutely worth it.  The feel is much better than
an Ernie Ball pedal (which I also have).  And if you ever use the XB2
to control an external midi module, you've got midi volume control
under your foot.  Finally, there was some talk a while ago about how
an "expression" pedal is different from a "volume" pedal - the tonal
characteristics change through the throw of the pedal as well as the
volume.  Although no one could say for sure if the XB2's pedal is
truly an expression pedal as on a B3 - anyone?  Al?
