How does understanding EQ frequencies transform your guitar tone and help you as a live musician? Why are a 31-band EQ and an EQ pedal, in general, the most underrated guitar effects, in Joe’s opinion? In this legendary piece of advice from Joe Bonamassa, he shows you exactly how to craft the perfect sound for any mix or band setup and tells you why you need to invest in a good EQ.
In this clip from Gibson Gear Guidew with host Dinesh Lekhraj, Joe Bonamassa explains why every guitarist should consider owning a 31-band EQ pedal—especially if you’re chasing better tone in a live or studio mix.
Joe breaks down how narrowing your frequency range can actually make your guitar sound bigger in the context of a full band. Even if the tone feels thinner on its own, he says, “the band sounded more separated” and everything sat better in the mix.
It’s the same reason small amps work so well in the studio—they cut through without overpowering the other instruments. According to Joe, shaping your tone with a detailed EQ is one of the easiest ways to get more clarity, more punch, and a better overall sound.
