{"product_id":"empress-paraeq-bass-eq-boost-pedal-2282658","title":"Empress ParaEQ Bass EQ \u0026 Boost Pedal","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Empress Bass ParaEq brings the full control and transparency of the ParaEq MKII Deluxe to a pedal designed specifically for bassists. As the only parametric EQ pedal built exclusively for bass, it gives players tone-shaping power that no other pedal offers. With bass-tuned frequencies, a dynamic low shelf, and features built for both electric and upright players, it offers the kind of tone-shaping flexibility usually reserved for studio racks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFollowing the success of the Empress Bass Compressor—and the popularity of the ParaEq MKII Deluxe among bassists—Empress recognized the need for an EQ pedal made specifically for low-end instruments. The Bass ParaEq adapts everything that made the Deluxe great, but optimizes the experience for bass. The result is an EQ\/boost pedal that feels less like an adaptation and more like an essential part of a bassist’s rig.\u003cbr\u003eThree bands of parametric EQ, each with fully sweepable Q controls, allow for broad tone shaping or surgical precision. A newly designed dynamic low shelf adjusts its range depending on how much boost or cut is applied, offering intuitive control over the foundation of a bass tone. The high- and low-pass filters help remove unwanted low-end rumble or harsh upper frequencies, while the clean boost section delivers up to +30dB of gain—ideal for solos, make-up gain, or hitting the front end of an amp harder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe 10MΩ high-impedance input makes the Bass ParaEq a great match for upright basses with piezo pickups, maintaining clarity and low-end response. An auto-detecting balanced output makes it easy to send a clean signal over long cable runs without tone loss or extra gear.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith 27V of internal headroom, a low-noise signal path, and Empress’s signature transparent EQ circuitry, the Bass ParaEq brings studio-quality tone-shaping to the pedalboard—purpose-built for bass.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures List\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-Analog Signal Path – Preserves your instrument’s natural character with rich, organic tone.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTailored for Bass – The only parametric EQ pedal built specifically for low-end instruments, with frequency ranges and filter behaviour engineered just for bass.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra Transparent, Sweet-Sounding EQ – Shapes your tone without masking the details of your sound.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTons of Control – With sweepable frequency, variable Q, and ±15dB of cut and boost across 3 bands.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic Low Shelf – A responsive shelf that adjusts its range based on how much you boost or cut.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10MΩ Hi-Z Input – Perfect for upright basses and piezo pickups that lose low end with standard inputs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBalanced Output – Auto-detecting TRS output for clean signal over long cable runs or straight to DI.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUltra Quiet – Low-noise design keeps your signal clean, even when boosting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e+30dB of Clean Boost – Push your signal hard for solos, make-up gain, or amp-driving punch.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e27V Internal Headroom – High-voltage operation like studio rack gear—nearly impossible to clip.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuffered Bypass – Maintains signal integrity across your pedalboard and cable runs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact Size – Enclosure measures approx. 2.5” x 4.8” x 2.6” with top jacks to fit any board.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Empress","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42651734409351,"sku":"PEQB","price":374.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0343\/4368\/2183\/files\/empress-effects-and-pedals-eq-empress-paraeq-bass-eq-boost-pedal-empress-paraeq-bass-eq-boost-pedal-peqb-1167444720.jpg?v=1768387833","url":"https:\/\/www.chicagomusicexchange.mom\/products\/empress-paraeq-bass-eq-boost-pedal-2282658","provider":"Chicago Music Exchange","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
