Big Sound--Small Size!!!

I recently put together a pedalboard mostly to get them out of my gig bag and by the way, PedalTrain is the only way to go!!! After mounting my Dunlop Wah, Keeley Comp, Boss Blues Driver Chorus and Delay I realized that an EQ would be the finishing touch! After reading reviews on everything under the sun and demoing several it was clear the MXR 6 band would do the trick. The bands are designed specifically for electric guitar, although I've heard it works well on acoustics also! The 800 band is like a presence on roids so remember just a small adjustment goes a long way. It's also got a small footprint that helps on board placement but has no volume or gain slider. Based on where you start and stop in relation to the center detent you can set it for a boost or just a tone adjustment. Tends to be a little noisey but not a deal breaker! Thats the only reason for a less than perfect rating. The best noise gate is to just start playing, RIGHT? I highly recommend it! Oh, by the way, when you engage it with the footswitch all six sliders light up and can be easily seen in light or dark areas! I love LED's--Bob
