The pPTSD (prof Pinotte Tone Shaping Device) is a professional-grade parametric guitar EQ pedal with integrated clean boost, handmade in Quebec, Canada. This analog signal path equalizer delivers surgical precision for guitar tone shaping in your amplifier's effects loop.

Start with everything at noon, plug that unit into your FX Loop, and see where you can go. The classic V shape is also a good start, boosting the low and high, and cutting a little bit of the mids. You can also only use the pedal as a volume boost (unity at noon) for your solos with a lot of volume boost available under the Level knob.

Key Features:

  • 3-band parametric EQ: Low (33-330Hz), Mid (250-2.2kHz), High (1.1k-11kHz)
  • ±12dB boost/cut range for each frequency band
  • Adjustable Q (bandwidth) control for precise frequency targeting
  • Integrated volume boost circuit for solo work and amp overdrive
  • Full analog signal path maintains guitar tone integrity
  • True bypass switching preserves signal when disengaged

Perfect For:

  • Metal and high-gain guitar tones requiring frequency sculpting
  • Clean boost for guitar solos and amp overdrive
  • Effects loop tone shaping and EQ correction
  • Recording studios needing parametric EQ precision
  • Live performance tone enhancement

Technical Specifications:

  • Power Requirements: 9V DC center negative, 48mA consumption
  • Dimensions: 3.7" x 4.7" x 1.34" (94mm x 119mm x 34mm)
  • Boutique handmade construction in Saguenay, Quebec, Canada
  • Professional-grade components for studio and stage use

Fantastic pedal

I am new to using a parametric equalizer, so I am still learning how to use it, but I can say that with every tweek I get more satisfying results. Pro build, pro quality all the way. Thanks Guptech.

The ideal parametric for your guitar(and probably more) for the money.

I've always felt EQ to be one of the more powerful tools in where the guitar sits in the mix and the pPTSD is overall the best for the money. Three adjustable bands are as much you really need without making things too complex. Equivalent pedals from other companies cost quite a bit more as well. The only thing more I might want from this pedal is the format would allow for another footswitch, allowing the level knob to be used as a boost, but I'm not in the bit least disappointed in the quality of this pedal. I have quite the collection of EQ pedals and this one is the most sensible parametric you can have; quick and easy to read and adjust, ruggedly built and not so much to bury yourself with.

Awesome parametric eq

Very quiet and powerful parametric eq pedal, perfect for shaping the tone of your amp, or boost into overdrives, fuzzes and distortion. Very impressed and affordable!

Guptech EQ review

Sounds great. Good pedal. Only thing it's missing is a sheet showing where all the frequencies are located around the span of the Freq knob. That's something that would've made the learning curve faster / easier and the pedal more intuitive.
