Yep, Boss makes a fairly popular one.

Why do you think you need an equalizer? What do you hope to get from it?

Mostly to mess around with my tone, get rid of feedback and unwanted mid.

An equalizer pedal could help with that. Maybe rent/borrow one before you buy though to make sure it does the job you want it to.

I see those Boss ones pop up on craigslist from time to time. they are pretty standard.

MXR makes a sweet one. I think it has ten sliders. lots of control.

Ah, yeah, I forgot about theirs Tyler. I jammed with a guy for a while who used one of the MXR ones and it made a great difference in his sound.

Vic probably has some cooler small shops that carry them too, but L+M carry both MXR and Boss effects.

I'm digging the MXR Stereo Chorus pedal right now, one of those might be in my near future.

That could be done, :mrgreen: but no, I'd probably skip the stereo option and just use it in mono for the eq and sweet chorus. I have an E-H Clone Theory, which sounds cool too, but the MXR really caught my ear.

mids are what make guitars sound like guitars. having no mids makes you sound like garbage and a noob. Save up yer pennies and buy an amp that doesn't suck and you wont need distortion pedals and eq's
