I have no idea about any EQ pedals other than the KFK 10 band and the newer silver MXR 10 bands. Those are the only ones I have ever owned.
I just heard(read)on this forum that many have said the fish and chips was a good cheap EQ. If I was going to get a cheap EQ,that's what I would get based on opinions I have seen here.
Good hunting. You will like the extra tone shaping an EQ will give you.
I was hunting and found. the tc Body Rez
I saw Petrucci used it so I gave it a go
This pedal is AWESOME for taking that god awful piezo quack & turning it into something beautiful. Really amazing pedal
