EQ Pedal Shootout | Golden Age of Gear Ep. 44
This week, Joey and Derek go deep on one of the most underrated tools on your board — EQ pedals.
What started as a “clean boost side quest” turned into a full-blown shootout between classics, mods, and a few surprises.
The guys compare the legendary Boss GE-7, the XTS and Analog Man mods, the bargain-bin Behringer EQ700, the Earthling Designs Preamp, and of course the wild Chase Bliss Condor.
From subtle tone-shaping to straight-up sonic surgery, they find out which one actually makes your rig sound better — and which one just adds noise.
Along the way there’s LaCroix, shameless self-promotion, some serious nerding about frequencies, and one or two jokes at each other’s expense.
Grab a drink, turn it up, and hang out — because it turns out EQ pedals are way more fun than anyone admits.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
