Tame the chaos or sculpt your ideal tone with this brilliant little box from the always-inventive minds at Old Blood Noise Endeavors. The EQ + Buffer is a pedalboard essential that pairs a transparent buffer with a three-band graphic EQ—delivering practical control and subtly unique OBNE flavor.

Low, Mid, and High sliders are intuitive and responsive, giving you a quick way to shape and balance your sound on the fly—whether you're compensating for a finicky amp, dialing in the front-end of a fuzz, or just adding tonal character.
