eq pedal?

[DaveyDeathKill]

I need something to boost my tone a little. In most songs my band plays I switch between fingers and slapping quite a bit, and if I get my tone set up for a nice, thick bassline, it doesn't have nearly enough treble for slapping. I need something to give me some highs. I was thinking an EQ pedal, like a MXR 6 band, but any suggestions would be appreciated.

Check out Source Audio. They have a new EQ pedal that has 4 presets.

J!

Thanks, I will.

Anybody else?

I really liked the MXR M-108 10-band. The only drawback is that it needs its own power supply. I haven't tried the Source Audio yet, though.

Super pricey, but I have been using the Empress ParaEq and it has really helped my tone. I was able to dial out a horrible rumble that would overpower the band room. That with some other tweaks and note just seemed to "pop" out.

For simple and cheap, go with the 3-band S-D Paranormal, which has a slap contour switch. They can be had for cheap on eBay and they are well made.

Thanks guys. I'm checking out all of these. Has anybody tried a Geb-7? I'd prefer something cheap.

I use a GEB-7. It works for me.

Is it very subtle? I've never used an eq pedal, and on the videos I watched I couldn't really tell what it was doing.

It isn't subtle at all. If you twiddle one of the knobs while playing you can hear that frequency changing. Try one out.

Great, I'm sold. That was the only thing I was worried about. Thanks!
