Description
Analog Man presents the Boss GE7/Pro. The GE-7 has a boost/cut of +/- 15dB per band. The Pro mod is designed to improve clarity and lower the noise issues that the stock GE-7's have. Also available on Bass version GEB-7.
The GE-7 has seven bands ranging from 100Hz to 6.4kHz, ideal for tweaking guitar sounds, with boost/cut of +/- 15dB per band. This lets you completely control your sound and eliminate unwanted feedback, particularly when connected after a distortion effect.
The Pro mod is designed to improve clarity and lower the noise issues that the stock GE-7's have. This is accomplished by upgrading the IC chips and tone capacitors. We replace the cheap stock tone capacitors with high quality film capacitors like we use in the rest of our effects. This improves the overall clarity of the pedal.
VOLTAGE : The stock GE-7 can not be run over 15V. We modify it so it will run fine from 9V up to 18V. Higher voltage which will give even more clarity and headroom to the pedal.
The stock GE-7 can add some noise if you move the sliders away from center. Even bringing the two lowest sliders DOWN will add noise, try it! Our mod replaces three chips with the King of Tone chip, which is a low noise chip designed for tone controls so it's perfect in this application. These chips take about 40% more power (pedal goes from 16mA to 23mA), so a battery will not last as long, better to use a power supply. A normal alkaline battery will still last over 15 hours, so you can use batteries if you want.
We also change a bunch of cheap capacitors used for tone control to high grade metal film caps. This lowers noise and improves tone. Thanks to the people on the diystompboxes forum who posted info on modding this pedal. We used their ideas and tweaked it a bit with our favorite parts to make it the best sound for the price. We can modify the old or new GE-7 pedals or sell you a new one with our mod, plus optional LED change.

The ultimate solo boost.
If you have one of these pedals lying around or find an old one for a fair price, just get this mod done and you'll have a wonderful pedal you might not be able to live without. For the speed of the service and quality of work, I figured it was a fair value, but from what I know it's an easy mod to perform at home with the right parts. If anyone is struggling to be heard in a mix, any old EQ post drive can get the job done, but this one might just sound a little sweeter.
