EB-10 Preamp/EQ/Boost Pedal - Black Review

Great Boost and EQ

Excellent for tone shaping. Three memory slots. Very easy to use and a powerful boost. Recommended.

Powerful and subtle

Walrus says there are 700 different settings. I haven't done the math, or come close to exploring everything this pedal can do. It sounds more crisp and clean than a POT based equalizer, more dynamic and hiss-free than many other pre-amps and boosters. It might seem like a lot of knobs and switches, but with no POTs it's easy to get back to that exact setting that was working,… read more and then you can save it as a preset. If your amp sounds great with a clean signal this pedal is all you need to get dozens of unique and perfect tones. It's also great for shaping a signal to feed into other effects, or at the end of signal chain to keep that great amp in it's happy place. So many places to use it I may need another.

Forget

I have known for some time that I needed an EQ for my guitars and bass to really shape my tones. I tried the 10-band MXR and JOYO but wasn't satisfied with either. It seemed like with those EQs one should be able to "craft" the perfect tone. There are 10 bands, right? But what I found was that, while there are a lot of frequencies to mess with, the results were "meh." Yes, you… read more can hear subtle differences, but it's nothing a VST plug-in cant do. Sent them both back and gave up. Then I saw a video of this pedal on YouTube. Promising...then the pedal went on sale... Bought it.Holy crap...this is it. This is the HOLY GRAIL of EQs. It's like turning the lights on your guitar and "seeing" what it can really do for the first time. When I plugged in my strat and started to play with my Keeley compressor before it, I was like: "What my guitar sounds like that?! You mean this is the SAME guitar I have been playing all this time?" Seriously, I just came back from a 3-hour sit down with this thing and couldn't stop playing. It's like the first time I saw an HD TV and realized my TV sucked. There is no way I will ever go back to playing my electric guitars and bass without this pedal. No, you can not make me! It is THAT amazing.Don't take my word for it. Listen. Watch the video by Brett Kingman. What he discovered with it is exactly what I experienced. The best way to put it is that it's like "leveling up" all your guitars/bass. The best thing is that it sounds just as good with a DAW with headphones as it does with an amp. Money well spent.

Swiss Army Knife for Tone

This pedal is amazing. It's perfect for balancing out the differences between guitars in your rig. I run it in preset mode, with individual presets for my Strat, Tele, and SG. For the Strat, I'm able to roll off the harsh high end and use the boost to match the other guitars. In my Tele, I have lower-output Lambertones Crema humbuckers. Not much eq is needed, but the individual… read more bands are all boosted slightly. The SG is where this really shines. I have Lindy Fralin humbucker-sized P90's and adding some high end really makes the neck pickup sparkle and the bridge cut perfectly, without losing any of the great midrange growl. Now, all three guitars hit my pedals and amp consistently, while still retaining their unique characteristics. If you play multiple guitars in a set, this pedal is a must-have! Thanks always to my sales tech, Jeff Jent, for outstanding service!
