Any eq pedal with hpf?

Hi, i'm looking to buy an EQ pedal (parametric or not) that also has a HPF in it. Lpf or shelving highs would also be a plus, but not that necessary.

I know the empress para eq deluxe and source audio eq2 exist, but they are a bit too expensive for my budget. Is there any other cheaper options? I would probably go for the SA EQ2 if it ever goes on sale.

Thanks!
 
Used Radial Bassbone V2 maybe? I have seen them as low as $180. V2 has a switch that controls HPF. It is either 35hz, 60hz, or off. Not a ton of control on the HPF, but probably enough with those three settings.

Used Broughton Resonant Filter Equalizer (RFE) is another options. A different approach to EQ plus filter since the high and low are LPF/HPF with an adjustable resonant peak. It has a parametric mid for additional tweaking.

Edit: I forgot about the Re/Q. At used prices, that one is likely the winner between the Bassbone, RFE, and Genzler.
