What good PEQ pedals are out there? I've never used one in pedal form. Gonna be tossing it into a 5150 II loop to clear some mud.

Just found this...

That Empress looks rad, out of budget though. Anything cheaper? I'd like about 3 bands and I've noticed some PEQ pedals don't have the ranges labeled, which I'd really like to be able to tell exactly what frequency I'm cutting.

I'm not sure why most mfg's overlook how cool a Para EQ pedal is but it's one of those things that always gets overlooked.
Id be willing to bet it's because the demands is not high enough for manufactures to build one and there is so much
mis information about parametrics floating around that it makes people believe that there are harder to work with then they really are!
I know that back in the day, I stayed away from them because people used to tell me how hard they were to work with but now that
I'm pretty familiar with them I'm left scratching my head as to why people told me that bullshit in the first place hahahaha! It't not rocket science!
With that rant over:
I'm pretty sure that the Empress is top dog but if you are handy, you can build one for about $119

Yeah, PEQs work better for me for finding frequencies I don't like. Graphics are too inaccurate. I have a MXR 10-band laying around, but there's only a couple of spots I want to cut, so a 3-band PEQ would be great.
