Overall Rating:
I'm not really in the market of looking for Bass Effects, because you can only do so much... The reason I got the NE-1 is because: GOOD Price (24.99), can't beat that, MATCHES my Bass (Nathan East Signature), Good reviews and now I know why... Rumors say that Nathan never played without it (he calls it his Magic Box). And also, I have heard that it sound well on electic guitars too.
Price: $24.99 (new)
Where Obtained: Musicians Friend
Features:
Input and Output Jacks, Power Indicator (LED)- when input is in, 3- Knob system: Level Control (LEVEL)- use to contol the out put level of the main unit, Q Control (Q)- equalizer's variable curve: SHALLOW:Provides Smoother Curve, DEEP: Provides Sharper Curves, FLAT: All frequencies will be flat, and Frequency Control (FREQUENCY)- use to set the equalizer's center frequency. Runs on one 9V Battery. Although I wished it came with an optional A/C output...oh well...
Sound Quality:
I play all types of music and the NE-1 conforms to every style. What makes the NE-1 more sweeter is that I play it with my BBEast. They are like twin. Nathan East all the way. My BBEast, is already quiet, but the NE-1 makes it DEAD-QUIET! The sound is absolutely flawless. Much rounder and deeper. Especially, if you follow Nathan East's DEEP recipe. You can also custom tone it to your desired frequency.
Ease of Use:
You dont need to be a rocket scientist or a brain surgeon to run this EQ. It has 3 knobs.
Durability:
Looks pretty durable to me. Solid chrome box. I have read numerous reviews on the NE-1 and 90% rate 10. I would too, but our ratings only up to 5.
