Not the cheapest or best EQ pedal out there, but I like my Boss GE-7.

Some people swear by their Danelectro EQ pedals, but I stay away from that brand. Still, pretty cheap by any standard.

Depending on how you do the settings, you can use a EQ as a boost when neccesary. Or you can get a overdrive, like a tubescreamer.
Id advice against it if you get your main distortion from other pedals though..

Things like delay, flange, wah-wah and shit are mostly just depending on taste.
I don't use them much..

I was looking at the EH #1 delay pedal and the mxr 6 band EQ. Are they any good?

i've been thinking about getting an eq myself. is there any real difference in QUALITY of eq pedals out there, other than the obvious functionality differences of 7 bands compared to 10 bands?

Is the quality of a boss 7 band the same as a MXR 7 band or a Danelectro fish and chips 6 band?

the dude at guitar center told me that the MXR was waaaaay better quality than other stuff, so that was what I had to buy. Based on this suggestion, I did not buy anything because it sounded like he was trying to upsell the most expensive model.

i'll answer my own question 5 hours later. just bought a boss ge-7 used for a good price from a guy off of craigslist. that thing makes a huge difference in my tone. and this is only after i've played on it for about 10 min.
