Empress Effects has just launched the Bass ParaEq, an EQ pedal that it says is the world’s first to be designed specifically for bass guitar. That’s right, it’s not just a guitar pedal that does a great job an octave down – everything here is tuned for bass frequencies.
After all, Empress already had an EQ pedal on the market that bass players liked. The ParaEq MKII Deluxe was already a super popular fixture on bassist’s pedalboards. It does a great job. But that, allied to the success of its bass compressor pedal, gave Empress the idea that a dedicated parametric EQ was a viable proposition.
