I've praised the Rocktron Metal Plaent before for that very reason.
It has a 4 band parametric built in.
You can dial in about anything you need, and it's easier to deal with that a 4574 band EQ. It will give you limitless choices.

I mean really, if you bump a few sliders on the Akai you'll have a hard time figuring out how to get your sound back in a hurry. It's not like "the third knob is at 12 o'clock and the second one it at 2."

The Rocktron is about $40 used.
Does Metal, 60's groovy fuzz, and skraight up distortion.
Built well.

I will say the Akai stuff is very nice, generally.

Good tip, slowriot. Their site's here.

They're ridiculously overpriced for what they are. Oscillating fuzz pedals and feedback loops are two of the easiest circuits to build.

Old skool bumpage.

I'm looking for the schematics for exactly this kind of thing. Any pointers?

This should help, it helped me.
