EarthQuaker Devices Tone Job Review
The Tone Job goes beyond a standard EQ pedal. With active controls for Treble, Bass, and Mid, you can boost or cut frequencies by up to 20dB, letting you fine-tune your sound for any setup. The Level control gives you up to 5x the original signal strength, making it an incredible tool for solos or pushing an amp into rich saturation. Designed with high-quality components and featuring true bypass for pure tone, this pedal is built to enhance any rig.

Unlike traditional graphic EQs, the EarthQuaker Tone Job features interactive EQ controls, meaning adjustments to one frequency can subtly influence the others. This makes it easy to dial in a balanced, musical response rather than a sterile, clinical tone. Whether you're sculpting your guitar's voice, adding punch to a bassline, or sweetening the sound of a synth, this pedal delivers studio-quality shaping with the simplicity of a stompbox.
