It's always amazed me how little many guitar players use EQ pedals. Distortion and boost are all great and dandy. But almost any electric guitar I've ever heard, puts out at least some unwanted frequencies. When the Boss Metal Zone pedal came out, all my buddies were struggling to get any usable tones from it. I suggested they get an eq pedal and try using it before or after the MZ to smooth out some of the rough edges. Next thing you know, the MZ's had fresh batteries in them all the time, and were seeing frequent use again! Once I'd get them dialed in and chugging heavily, they were happy again! Long live the Metal Zone.
Metal zone as a clean boost with a 6 band in front and 10 band in the loop is the heaviest tone you can get out of any amp. I’ve used this exact setup for years. It’s literally my main Rythym tone and for leads I just cut the metal zone and have a nice sounding lead with Delay and Chorus
"When the Boss Metal Zone II pedal came out, all my buddies were struggling to get any good tones from it." Just like me and all my buddies. We kept using it anyway 😂
THIS is so very helpful!!! Great instructional 101-type video for those of us still toying with amp setting and pedals only, looking to take the next step in controlling our tone.
Speaking for many, including myself. I don’t even own any gear yet, so I’m still learning about pedals, EQ’s, and overall settings for each of those. Love these type of videos! Thanks as always and cheers, LambChopper!
Hey Lamb I love the content you've been putting out. Since watching your channel I've gained so much knowledge on really dialling in my own tone and sticking out in the mix, and generally so much about how to be heard and sound good. Thanks for all the awesome work you're doing man, keep it up!
been following for a while now, and your just an absolute madman of a player, love all of your jam room and guitars, the tones you achieve are always so raw and its cool to see what kind of things you can get away with, but doing such minor things.
@jimdunlopusa hook this man up,I'm about to buy an MXR eq because of this video. Eq in the effects loop of my Peavey Triumph is just what it needs by the sound of it! Cheers!
This is so informative and probably the most important video for guitar players. Not many would pay attention to EQ pedals. Thank you for putting this video up!
Thank you for this video. I just purchased my first tube amp setup. Prs mt15 head with a evh 5150 2x12 cab. Excited to play and buy a few pedals one being a noisegate and also an eq pedal
I too am a huge fan of the EQ pedal. It does so much and it's one of those pieces of gear that is always on my board. Right now I have the MXR KfK 10 band. It takes 18v to run it, but with the volume and gain being independent you can really slam the front of the amp hard. Or the opposite, cut that gain and volume to get those sparkling cleans. And every tone in between.
I've been using a few 6, 7 and 10 band graphic EQs, both in the front of the amp (after boosts/OD) and in the FX loop, they do shape the tone nicely, however the HUGE control over my tone came from a ratty cheap Artec parametric EQ pedal in the loop, holy shit the difference it makes!! I'm about to pull the trigger on the new 5 band parametric EQ from Ibanez, the pentatone equalizer PTEQ, looks to be everything you'd never need to hone your tone in every scenario, and the best of all, it will come at a really great price point!!
Your channel is such a gem. Thank you for the knowledge. Think I'm gonna pick up that EQ, is it good for cleans as well? I play death metal, 80s metal, modern metal pretty much the same stuff as Lamb in my free time, but I also play worship guitar at my church as well. Would it be versatile enough for both? I'm new to EQs and how they work, only know the absolute basics. Thanks again!
EQ'ing before any kind of overdrive, saturation, distortion will definitely influence the way your signal breaks up and will be a different tone than post overdrive etc. Experiment with some pre-recorded direct sounds into amp and pedal sims to get a feel with how the tones change. It's easier to critically listen when you're not playing at the same time.
honestly, this video really made me want to pick up the guitar and play for the first time in a while. it was really cool hearing about some of these tips, like the dimebag "pushing in front and scooping in the back" setup, and you really nailed that metallica crunch, but my rusty ears would have liked for some of these riffs/eq settings to have a comparison with the flat eq to better pickup the nuances.
This video was super helpful man thank you, and as a bonus I use the same amp as the one you’re using in the video and I’ve got an mxr ten band EQ so this is perfect
Yeah, this video really help me. I got a cheap Cube Baby fx wich is doesn't have an fx loop. So, i don't have to worry about to put an eq in front of preamp section.
Aww the little conure. Miss my little bird, hated when I played electric, but would fly over and perch on my guitars when they were on the stands and just hang out
I originally tried my EQ in the front of my DSL with a Metal Zone as a clean boost and it was just way too much. After a lot of experimenting with different gain pedals both in the front and back, I put an SD-1 in the front and the EQ in the loop and I have a very similar sound to my old solid state setup with the MZ and EQ, but with some attitude and sound that doesn't break up at higher volumes, but just gets nasty (in a good way). I don't play in a mix so I have more of the slight smile EQ pattern similar to the 10:20 mark. My base tone is the "No More Tears" album. Just scoop the mids a little bit to get "And Justice For All" or down tune a little bit to get the more Nu Metal Tones and roll off the low end a little bit. I tried the MZ in the loop as well and it sounded pretty decent in the clean channel, but was not really needed as the OD channels took care of that type of sound.
Funny, I just grabbed an MXR 6 band the other day, can't believe the difference it makes. Running in front of the amp, I can make my cheap guitars sound like they have much better pickups. In the FX loop, I can make my amp sound like a completely different amp. Suddenly my ENGL doesn't just sound like an ENGL. Having a blast.
Man, I just love playing guitar. When I started out, I had a guitar and an amp. Then I bought different guitars to achieve different sounds. As I got older, I could afford to buy different amps… so now i’m in the market for different eq pedals to put them in different places of the fx chain… it just never gets boring 😂.
@LambChopper678 🤘I love your tone videos and would like to see if you could you please try dial in the Dethklok tone. I love this band and its tone but never able to work it out? much love 🤘
I've using a DOD FX40B EQ since 1994, originally to tame my FX-69 Grunge, but once I got into a band, it was to actually shape my tone to fit into the live mix.
I've always used EQ's - probably for 40 years now. A Boss back in the day, and a Berringer 31 band stereo rack unit at one point. These days I'm pleasantly surprised by the Amoon EQ-7. I mount them on-board some of my guitar builds in lieu of tone controls. I usually put it at the front of the pedal chain, right after the tuner. On a 7 band, I typically max the top and bottom bands, and cut the middle three all the way - IE super scooped. I also don't do noise gates, cause feedback is part of my tone.
thanks for this. i have a katana mk2 50 and ive been working at the 10 band eq in front of the amp with the tube screamer and i like it. im jealous at how fast you can fix up a sick tone lol. it takes me an hour or so but i may have been using my EQs wrong, this video might save me lol.
good video i have 2 10 band eqs in the effects loop for lead and rhythm in this thrash band ive started. this one makes me want a 6 band in front of my jcm800 or dsl 20 as an option for some different tones. I'm trying to blend a v30 cab with a greenback cab until i can get another v30 marshall cabinet. These videos really make me want a torpedo as well to experiment with more with di instead of micing
I picked up my first mxr 10 band EQ because of your channel and I love it. Unrelated question. Do you think the Kraken could produce some Lamb of God tones reasonably well? If its paired with EQ or compresion pedals
Hey lambchopper. Just wandering what headphones you find best to use for guitar amps? I know it won't be the same as a speaker cab but I live in an apartment building and don't want to bother the neighbour's. I have sennheiser hd280 currently and get decent quality sound but would be nice if sound had a bit more presence and a bit more open. Any suggestions that have worked well for you? Thanks for all the awesome content you make and all your help with teaching about getting different tones. Rock on🤘
Cheers. Been really enjoying the content you've been putting out lately. Inspires me to play again. I love that you're using a combination of analog and the captor X profiles. Which cabs would you suggest buying on the TwoNotes? Apart from the MegaMarshall cab? ;) I'm using the plugin with Amplitube. Thanks
the way I understand is pre EQ is like a problem solving tool(for your instrument with factors like type/number of strings and pickups), post EQ is like an actual tone shaping tool for the amp
Thanks for this Glenn I've been using the mxr 10 band in the front of the amp and the mxr 6 band in the effects loop with really awesome results I actually got the idea from this channel I even have a Boss mt-2 metal zone on my pedalboard and with the added tweaking from the EQ it's a really good pedal when playing through the clean channel of the amp but want a really saturated lead tone my next EQ adventure I'm going for the Master effects parametric and an empress effects unit to broaden amps tonal characteristics....... I'm gunna need a bigger pedalboard lol
Loved the video and the examples, so thank you. I just bought my first EQ pedal a few weeks ago after seeing how you use it to get different tones. Right now its a 10 band eq in the front. That along with my Plumes, really tighten up the sound and just adjusting a couple frequencies, really really get me the great tone i want to hear. Extremely powerful. As always, great content and examples, direct communication and leaving it up to the viewer to experiment and find what works for them. Perfect. Thanks again! Cheers!
It’s like audio alchemy, depending on what frequency you manipulate, where and when you do it, all just produces different metal! I always learn something from these videos, but admittedly, it’s still a bit beyond me. I can’t afford the amps and physical gear at the moment. Having to rely on digital simulations, like Amplitube.
I use a PQ4. When i got it 25 years ago i thought it was gonna be a magic bullet but i could only make my sound worse. Then i realized what i didnt want and removed it. Yes sir, correction is the name of the game. Now i cant live without it
Hi brother! Is the wether hot in Austrália? Here in Portugal is cold! Great vídeo! Still waiting to see you playing the Silver Jub! Cheers from Portugal 🤘🍺🇵🇹
Dear Lamb, please could you take a look at the guitar tone in a song called Servitude by the band Sylosis. If you could, that'd be amazing. Cheers mate!
So cool...don't have an amp but using modeling boxes, hxstomp right now, for 20 years haha...never tries doing EQ before the amp...interesting...gonna try did with all my tones. But if I understand it correctly you EQ the clean tone and unpowered signal from the guitar right?
@@LambChopper678 that thing turned my amp into killer even stuck dirty channel sounded better. I will try to add 6band into front and boost the distortion with an OD pedal.
Nice! I have the mxr 10 band. I use it to tame the very top end of sound as I have the Marshall V30’s so it gets kinda harsh on top end. Wish it had an LED to show if it’s on or not. Not sure why they don’t put that in their EQ’s.
Hey buddy, no its a newer one but I just found out someone modded it where all the middle controls do not light up only level and gain. Im assuming the mod was to tame to ridiculous bright LED's. @@LambChopper678
I used this alot with 10 band eq in my younger days. Couldn't afford Expensive amps. I had better tone out of crate amps than $1000 plus amps my friends could afford😅
Question brother: I have the MXR 10 Band and it’s great, but get this: I’m getting AM radio interference coming through my speakers anytime it’s engaged! I’ve replaced cables, I’ve rerouted my signal chain, I’ve messed with the gain & volume, but nothing is working. I can’t figure out why. Any advice?
When the humming and distant whistling noises start coming through your amp , it’s coming from your mxr pedal , reach down and pluck the led lights out of the sliders , they come right out. The power supply for the led lights are problematic. Among other problems, I finally threw my mxr eq in a dumpster never have to worry about it in my rig again.
How about trying a 31 band...? I know it's overkill but i would love to see how you would work it and set it up to get all those great tones. BTW, you can get a MXR 31 band super cheap on the used market.
You need to be working in the R&D dept for BOSS/Roland or someone.......You'd help them make us great products. Have you thought about making your own pedals? Id love to do the prototype.
If there's anyone on the fence about getting an eq pedal....get off. I've bought so many distortion, overdrive, amps speakers.....nothing got me that tone I heard in my inner ear...till I bought my 10 band mxr.
This guy just walks around in every day life knowing he can do that.
I just added the MXR 6 band EQ to my Mesa Boogie Triple Crown TC-100 and OMG it's a new world! Thank you for your video!
This device is extremely important for a good tone
definitely interesting to hear the difference between the front end and the effects loop. makes such a difference

Two notes Torpedo Captor X emulated Mustaine 4x12

What do you think about the boss equalizer ?
Can you get and justice for all tone in front of amp or only in the fx loop?
Eq really helps there. I get closest with EQFH from master effects
When the humming and distant whistling noises start coming through your amp , it’s coming from your mxr pedal , reach down and pluck the led lights out of the sliders , they come right out. The power supply for the led lights are problematic. Among other problems, I finally threw my mxr eq in a dumpster never have to worry about it in my rig again.
How about trying a 31 band...? I know it's overkill but i would love to see how you would work it and set it up to get all those great tones. BTW, you can get a MXR 31 band super cheap on the used market.
You need to be working in the R&D dept for BOSS/Roland or someone.......You'd help them make us great products. Have you thought about making your own pedals? Id love to do the prototype.
If there's anyone on the fence about getting an eq pedal....get off. I've bought so many distortion, overdrive, amps speakers.....nothing got me that tone I heard in my inner ear...till I bought my 10 band mxr.
