So I got an 80’s Furman PQ-3 recently and am super impressed with it! It has this inherently organic, warm quality to it that few of my many boost, od or eq pedals have except for klon and maybe my coppersound Broadway. I’ve always felt vintage gear just tends to sound more lively and organic. My Empress ParaEq in comparison sounds cold and clinical even though it’s less noisy. The PQ-3 and Klon are without a doubt the 2 best boosts I’ve had (and I’ve had over 100)
So now I’m curious about looking into vintage graphic eq pedals and wanted to ask which ones you guys think are the best ones? I see there are a bunch of blue mxr ones like Dimebag used and some boss ones. How would they compare? Are there possibly older eq’s that would be considered better than the mxr or boss ones?
