Clean Boost with EQ

RC Booster, Empress ParaEQ... any opinions on these? Anything else I should consider?

How much boost do you need? The Fromel Shape isn't a boost per se, but functions like one i.e. can do a treble boost, mid boost, etc. Great unit unless you need a flat boost, and a lot of it.

Mine has the Sniper mod, probably the same thing. A modded GE-7 is a great pedal. Mine, when set flat, is completely transparent and does not add noise. I got it on eBay for less than $100 and it's one of the best pedals I have ever owned.

Thank you! I'll look into the FromeI. I primarily need EQ, but with clean boost as an added bonus.

Thanks for all the other suggestions too. I appreciate it.

The Empress ParaEq w/Boost is great. It has more usable options than any other pedal mentioned yet, with three Qs, one for each band, and 9/12/18 power choice, plus the wonderful clean boost. and more. Amazing.
