BehringerEQ700 Graphic Equalizer Pedal

This is possibly the most impactful $25 to $30 you could spend on a single pedal to shape your guitar tone. I owned the BOSS GE-7 for many years - I bought thinking I could fix a crummy amp just by moving some sliders around. I was wrong, obviously, and as my gear improved later in life, I sold the GE-7 and forgot about EQ pedals, for the most part. Recently, however, I was looking at trying one of the more premium options, like the MXR 6-band or 10-band or BOSS EQ-200, but couldn't justify the price. So, I figured I would just try out the Behringer for $25 to see if it was something I could use.I'm actually surprised how good this is for such a cheap pedal. I was expecting it to introduce a bunch of white noise (something the GE-7 was known for), but it really has not been an issue. Placing this after a Tonex ONE (or a drive pedal) allows you to dramatically transform the sound of that pedal. Placing it before an amp or a drive allows you to use it almost like clean boost, and I love that it has a master level control.If I'm being critical, we know about the build quality of these pedals. It's similar to a BOSS, but an all-plastic construction that I could definitely see failing down the road. Also, the frequency sliders work, but are a little wobbly and also do not have the "notch" position in the middle, so you do not know when they are exactly at zero. BUT, those are minor quibbles with a pedal that costs a little bit more from a full meal from Panera Bread. If you're unsure if EQ is something you could use, this Behringer pedal is a great, low-risk place to start.

As a basement rock Dad budget is always a concern. I’m not running a crazy rig, basically a epiphone LP through a katana. My guitar tone has always been a little muddy, especially playing along with my favorite recordings. I considered a new guitar, effects even trying new pickups. Before spending any big cash I heard about trying an EQ pedal and it seemed like just the ticket. Even better this little guy was only about 20 bucks. What a difference this thing made! It was a little noisier than I expected, but read other reviews where someone recommended using it to cut frequencies instead of boosting. I totally agree. There is still a little noise, but my “mudbucker” pickups cut through my favorite tracks with ease. The higher frequency response makes my guitar feel much more responsive. I find myself not even needing the extra boosts I was trying to use. The extra hiss is there, but it dissipates as you start to play, just like a single coil guitar. I can even shape the tone to mimic other styles of guitar. If your having a tone crisis and don’t feel like your getting anywhere give this thing a shot, you won’t be sorry!

Made my cheap amp sound better .

Fine works great

Works as advertised. For 25 bucks, you can't beat it. Sliders feel cheap because they are plastic, but again, it's 25 bucks.

Very noisy, static hiss that increases when you shift any sliders either way away from center.I tried it using a couple D'Addario wall warts, a generic one and both with others and by itself on my not truly isolated "isolated" mosky, all identical results.Maybe i got a bad unit. With this level of hiss i would expect more bad reviews than we see.

I did some research before buying. a wanted an EQ pedal that has more than 3 tone controls......and more than 5 for versatility. this has 7 and that's enough.. I know there are some out there with 10 or more divisions of the musical spectrum this is a classic, well known. I had to provide the standard 9 volt supply. it can hold a 9 volt battery also

Good price. Cheaper than mainstream outlets
