Damn Glad I Listened!

Product Rating Product Review Being new to playing I was having a hard time dialing in my desired tones on my amp using it's "equalizer" of 3 knobs for treble, bass and middle. No matter how hard I tried it would always take for ever to get it "good enough". Someone suggested I look at an EQ pedal so I started researching and found that the GE-7 from BOSS was pretty popular choice and consistently ranked in the tops of many rankings. The price seemed reasonable so I took the leap and I am damn glad I did! No fancy lights, frills or gimmicky settings needed. Not only is it built to last a lifetime, it's a straight forward legit EQ with excellent functionality. Now I can dial in my desired tones quickly with pinpoint accuracy. Thanks AMS for a great transaction and Thanks BOSS for an outstanding product!

Product Review Very powerful EQ. Can punch up or take out tones you don’t like. Also can make a guitar sound like a bass if you wish. Very versatile pedal!

Product Review I use this for a solo boost pedal since most boost pedals also boost something else also. This works better in my opinion.

Product Review Very impressed with the quality of this pedal. You can really bring alive the tones that are hiding in your amplifier if adjusted right. You will not regret adding this to your pedalboard.runs off of a 9v battery or you can plug it in.

Product Review After watching several videos on this pedal I bit the bullet. I am so glad that I did!! There are so many things you can do with this pedal alone, not to mention in conjunction with whatever else you have on your board. I love it

Product Review Bought this to fine tune my tone a little. Works great to get your sound just right. Along playing with it, figured out you can use it as a boost also for a good solo with some extra volume. Love everything from Boss. Thank you American Musical for always getting my gear to me cheap, safe, and fast! Buy it, you will not be let down.

That it makes an awsome solo boost

Product Review Graphic EQ's are the most useful sound enhancer on your board. By putting at the end of the chain in your effects loop you can substantially increase your volume which is great for soloing. Even if you don't have an effect loop you can use it in the same way. For live playing you can pull out curtain frequency to have you guitar stand out in the mix. Increase the volume to level out humbucker's from single coil pickups. It's just super useful for many situations. I highly recommend the Boss as it's an industry standard, easy to power, and is built like a tank.

Under Utilized Pedal

Product Review I’ve never in my lifetime used an EQ pedal. However, it’s probably the pedal that can have the biggest impact on your tone. It has fattened the tone of my Strat and can give your Humbuckers a sparkle. Most importantly it can shape the tone of your Distortion or OD and cut through the mix. This pedal is built like a tank and never leave home without.

Product Review The Boss GE-7 Equalizer gives you 7 bands of EQ. It boosts or cuts the chosen band by 15dB. I use the GE-7 to give my mid-range and treble a little boost. It also functions as an overall level boost of + or - 15dB; nice to kick in when you solo. +++++fK

Works like a dream (in the effects loop!)

By: Jonah      Submitted: 7/12/2019

Product Review Had mine for a couple of weeks now and its pretty awesome. You can do a lot of tricks with it including a volume boost for a solo or volume cut or changing the sound for an intro riff to cut bass or treble. I found that it doesn't work well if you don't use it in the effects loop. I thought about returning it because the volume didn't adjust much at all. But when I put it in the effects loop it was a totally different story. I could dial in any sound I wanted. I got it to dial in a mid scooped heavy metal sound that was freaking awesome. My amp already sounded good but now it sounds better.

Product Review This is a good EQ, but once you've had it for a while it tends to get quite noisy and becomes quite annoying. I know because I've owned 2.

Product Review I use this mostly for my 12 string Ovation ,there are softer spots in many of the songs( finger picking ) I wrote and this gives me control over the tone and volume . also, I use this when kicking on the overdrive and compression for the electric guitars ,and it brings higher brillant tones to make the sound clearer

Expensive but good quality

By: AMS Customer from USA      Submitted: 2/5/2008

Product Rating















Your general opinion of this product.

QUALITY:
Good quality... had it for 6+ years and the only thing wrong with it is the LED no longer works.

FEATURES:
+-15 dB, goes up to 6.4k and down to 100 hz, excellent for shaping electric guitar tone. Also nice that the sliders click into the neutral position.

VALUE:
It's a bit expensive for an EQ pedal but I know that it will be reliable.

SOUND:
Simply amazing versatility, great for scooping mid-range to give distortion a serious crunch. Not noisy at all in general, although it does make a bit of hiss if you boost any one frequency too much.

Your general opinion of this product.

STYLE:
Rock/alternative

MUSIC EXPERIENCE:
10 years

OVERALL:
Overall, I feel pretty indifferent over this pedal. What I DO really like is the volume boost. I basicall keep all the sliders in the neutral position, but increase the volume just a bit. So when the guitar solo comes around, I just kick on the pedal for a little boost to get me about the rest of the band.

Up and down, up and down. That's all I have to say! SIMPLE!

Your general opinion of this product.

QUALITY:
Boss = Chevy, if you want a Caddy you need to shell out more than $80, but you can drive a Chevy forever

FEATURES:
It does what its supposed to do

EASE OF USE:
easy to use, it sounds better when used after a OD or distortion, instead of in front of them

VALUE:
cheap price compared to designer pedals

SOUND:
using before modulation effects help keep the noise down. using a tube amp I turn all eq on the amp to 10 and sculpt my sound with the Ge-7 (setting amp eq any less than 10 only rolls off the frequencies your trying modify, and you don't get to hear the full benifits of the GE7, your amp will sound louder and individual notes will sound crisper)

Your general opinion of this product. It lets you take your sound where your amp won't let you. Leave it flat and use as a mere volume boost or cut or dial in the sound you like. Its also great for recording vocals or drums.

Your general opinion of this product.

QUALITY:
boss quality is always of good construction.My only complaint is the white rubber cover knobs eventually come off.

FEATURES:
eq knobs could have been a little smaller to pin point exactly where you are.sux you have to buy ac adapter on top of $100(boss rules)

EASE OF USE:
as easy as it looks. no tricks.

VALUE:
$100 retail usually $90 anywhere it will last you a long time

SOUND:
I have discovered to turn down the bass on my amp a little with eq's.I love metal palm mute sound and I thought the more bass every where the better.eq pedal primary bass sound with a little treble-metal zone less bass less treble-line 6 head bass at 5 (strongest bass response at higher volume)-esp ec2005.

STYLE:
all

MUSIC EXPERIENCE:
12 years

OVERALL:
eq pedals are a need in any rig.
