Parametric EQ : Does the job perfectly... but it really shines as a booster

4 years ago

As a single band parametric EQ, it does the job perfectly in order to adjust your guitar tone before the preamp or tweak a bit your preamp sound if you place it in the effects loop. You know, remove muddiness, tweak brightness, add mids, adjust tone when changing from dual to single coil...

But I've ended up using it as a booster as it really nails it. Because of the 4 controls (level, frequency, freq. curve and gain), you can use it as a plain booster (just volume) or a custom booster that can add extra brightness, mid-boost or even a lower frequencies push when soloing without increasing the overall volume too much.
