Seymour Duncan Convertible Hi-Gain EQ Preamp Module

 



This module has four knobs on top for adjusting EQ levels. Inside there is a PCB stacked on top of another. They are connected by some pins. There are two different kind of opamps used in the circuit, a TL074 and a TL082. These are apparently used to seperate the four bands of EQ and to control the amount of EQ in each band. The EQ bands are centered around 200Hz, 750Hz, 2KHz and 5KHz. Capacitors of differing values are used to funnel each frequency band. The 200Hz works well for low emphasis and the 2K and 5K will trim the highs.

Due to the complexity of this module, it probably would be difficult to build. So, if you have your heart set on getting one of these modules, try finding one on ebay.
