Boogie® Five-Band Graphic
In the early ’70s, Boogie® sounds were most associated with singing, vocal-inspired lead work as Artists learned the newfound possibilities of its
high gain tube preamp and it’s game-changing sustain. The Graphic EQ aboard most fully loaded “Hun-Revs” of the day found their sliders set for
a subtle widening effect or enhanced Bass response to mimic bigger cabinets with the little 1x12 combo. As the era of Classic Rock faded and the
dawn of Metal appeared on the horizon in the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, the potential power of this on-board tool began to be fully realized. Graph-
ic-loaded MARK II™ Boogie’s became the norm and most of these on-board EQs were used to scoop the mids to extreme levels while boosting
lows and highs and this “V-Curve” became a new standard... the “other sound” (non-Brit) in Hard Rock and Metal. Since then MARK III™, Mark
IV™ and Mark V™ Boogie’s all have their place in Rock history through iconic Artists and the Graphic EQ has been an integral part of their sound.
The Five-Band Graphic EQ aboard the current MARK V™ Boogie® is again at the forefront of emerging styles as a whole new generation crafts
their own unique brand of heavy sounds in Djent and Nu-Metal genres. Now we’re proud to introduce the stand-alone Pedal version of this piece
