Available to be delivered to you by post direct (some charge may apply).The team at Just Pedals think that Walrus Audio nailed it with the Walrus Audio EB-10 Preamp, EQ & Boost Pedal in Matte Black.
Walrus Audio's EB-10 pedal is the ultimate tone-shaping tool. Essentially a 3-in-1 stompbox, the EB-10 serves as a versatile preamp, EQ and boost that can be used to really enhance the sound of your guitar amp.
Boasting an array of switches and a full 3-band EQ section, the Walrus Audio EB-10 lets you precisely sculpt the ideal guitar tone for studio sessions. However, the EB-10 has plenty of potential for live performance, especially with its 'live' and 'preset' modes – the latter of which allows you to store and recall 3 unique patches.
Here's what Walrus Audio says about the EB-10 pedal:
A tone tweakers delight, the EB-10 works as a preamp, EQ and boost to meticulously craft your guitar's sound allowing for studio-grade electric guitar tone in a live setting. Each rotary knob offers up to 12dB of boost OR cut of Low, Mid, and High frequencies, based on where you have the toggle switches set. When the Boost switch is engaged, add a 10dB MOSFET boost for some great extra punch.
Use the EB-10 to compensate when switching between low and high output instruments. Push through the mix during solos, or even use the onboard presets as three different gain stages by using combinations of increasing boosted EQ settings and the Boost switch! With nine different EQ positions on each knob, bring out new tonal characteristics you didn't know your guitar or bass even had.
'Live' & 'Preset' Modes
The EB-10 offers two operating modes, 'Live' and 'Preset'. In live mode, the pedal responds to current position of all the knobs and switches. Dial in a specific sound and turn the pedal on and off with the Bypass switch. In preset mode, the pedal offers preset slots to store three unique sounds. When in preset mode, the pedal is locked on and the user can scroll through the presets by clicking the Bypass switch.
The pedal will boot up in the last known operating mode and if that is preset mode, it loads preset 1 by default. Enter preset mode by pressing and holding the bypass switch for 3 seconds until you see the preset light P1 turn on. Repeat to exit. You are in live mode when all preset lights are off. Refer to the manual on saving presets.

Boost
A boost pedal is used to increase the overall volume or gain of an instrument’s signal, typically without adding distortion or altering the tone drastically. It’s commonly used to push the amp into overdrive, making solos stand out or increasing the power of the signal for a more pronounced sound. Boost pedals can also be used to emphasise specific frequencies, helping the instrument cut through the mix during performances.
There are different types of boost pedals, such as clean boost and colored boost. Clean boost preserves the natural tone of the instrument while increasing the volume, whereas colored boost can alter the sound slightly, adding warmth, presence, or a subtle tonal shift. Popular boost pedals include models from Xotic, Electro-Harmonix, and TC Electronic, each offering different features like EQ controls, low noise, and transparency, allowing players to tailor their boost to fit their unique playing style.
EQ
An EQ (equaliser) pedal allows guitarists to shape their tone by adjusting the levels of different frequency ranges. Most EQ pedals feature multiple frequency bands—typically graphic EQs with sliders for specific frequencies or parametric EQs with adjustable frequency selection and Q width. These pedals can be used to cut unwanted frequencies, boost mids for solos, tighten bass response, or tame harsh treble. EQ is especially useful for fine-tuning distortion, compensating for tonal differences between guitars, or adapting to different amplifiers. Popular EQ pedals include the Boss GE-7, MXR Ten Band EQ, and Source Audio EQ2, making them an essential tool for tone control.

Preamp
A preamp pedal boosts the guitar signal to line level before it reaches an amplifier, shaping the tone and adding warmth, character, or gain. Preamp pedals can be used to simulate the sound of an amplifier’s preamp stage, providing overdrive, distortion, or clean tone shaping. They can also be used to drive amplifiers harder or to add tonal colour and EQ adjustments. Some preamp pedals are designed to mimic classic amp sounds, such as those from Fender, Marshall, or Vox, while others offer more modern, transparent tones. Well-known preamp pedals include the Tech 21 SansAmp, Electro-Harmonix Soul Food, and MXR M81 Bass Preamp, making them a useful tool for tone shaping in both live performances and studio work.
