Caline CP-81 10 Band EQ Guitar Effect Pedal with Volume/Gain

For the money, you cannot beat it. I use it for bass guitar. Great volume and gain control. More options than my Boss eq. Looks cool. How will it hold up? Regular gigging might expect the knobs to get damaged. They are lit but not solid knobs. The casing is metal. It does not have the built-in noise suppression like the MXR. Nor the price. You can run the outputs to two different amps. I don't. Home, studio and small gigs I would recommend this for. For this price point. You cannot beat it.

Im using it through a Hiwatt Crunch 150 effects loop. The pedal is noiseless on my board and brings the amp to life. Half the cost of its counterpart, you cant go wrong if you're on a budget.

Eq works well. I do notice a little noise from it in between songs, but I use a volume pedal, so I just mute my signal until I’m ready to play the next song.Works just like the MXR model.

This EQ does exactly what it’s designed for and delivers!

Bought this as an inexpensive option to get more shaping flexibility than the 7 band eq I was using. My instrument has a very prominent resonance that needs dialed back. Upon opening the shipping package, first thing I noticed there were smudges on the item package; maybe the person that pulled and packaged the order was eating something sloppy for lunch? Then I opened the package- the pedal was in a loose unsealed bag, no papers of any kind. No QuickStart guide, no warranty, none of the usual things you’d expect to see when you buy pretty much anything. Seemed strange. So I swapped out the 7 band with this new pedal and powered on my PA. Insane hum coming from this thing, but I looked over at the pedal and all the lights were pulsing. Clicked the button and the volume and gain sliders were flashing, clicked again several times, still flashing, and no signal. Unplugged the power supply from the pedal for about 10 seconds, plugged it back in and had the same thing happening. Went to unplug the power supply from the outlet and noticed the power light on the plug was flashing in unison with the lights on the pedal. Had the thought that a previously returned unit was shipped back out, but whatever the case, I should’ve known what to expect from this inexpensive alternative. Sending it back for a refund
