5 Reasons Why You NEED An EQ Pedal - The Guitarist's Secret Weapon!

Dagan checks out a pedal that so many legendary guitar plays have coined as their 'secret weapon'! The humble EQ pedal might not seem as crazy or game changing as an overdrive pedal, delay or chorus - But its integral to getting awesome UNIQUE tone! Just read anything about the genre defying tones of Eddie Van Halen and Dimebag Darrell and you'll quickly realise its importance and significance in the world of guitar!

EQ's come in many shapes and sizes; 6-band, 10-band, BOSS GE-7, MXR EQ Pedals, Graphic EQ, Parametric EQ, The bass, middle and treble EQ on regular amps, the EQ on something crazy like the Mesa Boogie Mark V Series & so many more. The more EQ in some cases the better, it gives you a chance to not only shape your tone so it's perfect to you ear, but also make it unique to you! Almost like having a signature tone so your amp sounds better to you than anyone else with that amp & pedal set up!

There are so many different ways to use an EQ pedal, run its into the front of your amp to shape your tone prior to hitting the pre amp, or run it after in the effects loop of your amp to sculpt an already fully formed guitar tone! You can use it as a full on boost or just to boost certain frequencies, you can cut the high or low end giving you a unique 'vintage radio' type tone, and so much more!
