Description
EMG B64 EQ Control
The EMG B64 EQ Control is a compact three-band active equalizer engineered for precision tracking and mixing-ready tone shaping in bass guitar and other stringed instruments. Its slim profile integrates seamlessly into tight control cavities while delivering surgical control over low, mid, and high frequencies. This straightforward, reliable circuit provides professional-grade EQ for capturing articulate, polished recordings without unnecessary complexity.
Design & Installation
Measuring just 3.170" × 0.822" (80.5mm × 20.9mm), the B64 EQ fits efficiently into confined spaces typical of modern bass and guitar designs. The unit ships with all necessary knobs, mounting hardware, and EMG solderless wiring quick-connects, eliminating soldering requirements and accelerating setup time during session builds.
Recording & Tone Shaping
The B64 EQ delivers transparent signal conditioning with -120dBV input-referred noise, ensuring clean gain staging and minimal self-noise for pristine recorded tracks. Three independent tone controls provide surgical precision for tracking and blending: Bass adjusts ±10dB at 30Hz, Mid adjusts ±10dB at 600Hz, and Treble adjusts ±12dB at 6kHz, covering the full frequency spectrum essential for articulate instrument response and mix-ready clarity.

Reviews
At a Glance
The EMG B64 EQ Control is a low-noise, three-band active EQ designed to sit cleanly in a bass or extended-range guitar's control cavity, offering transparent frequency shaping that won't muddy a mix or introduce self-noise during recording. Home engineers and session producers value it for its surgical precision—independent control at 30Hz, 600Hz, and 6kHz—and its ability to dial in articulate tone during tracking without cluttering the signal chain. Its extended battery life and minimal current draw make it ideal for long studio sessions where gear reliability matters.

Frequently Asked Questions
What skill level do I need to install the B64 EQ?
The B64 is designed for intermediate to advanced players; it ships with solderless wiring quick-connects that eliminate soldering, making installation faster, but working in a control cavity still requires comfort with electronics. Beginners may want professional installation support.
How long does the battery last?
The B64 draws only 1.5mA at 9V, delivering approximately 375 hours of battery life per 9V battery. At 18V, current draw rises slightly to 1.7mA, so battery longevity depends on your power configuration and use frequency.
Will this add noise to my signal?
No—the B64 is engineered for transparent signal conditioning with input-referred noise of -120dBV, ensuring clean amplification and minimal self-noise even during recording sessions or live performance.
What instruments does the B64 work with?
The B64 is purpose-built for bass guitar and other stringed instruments requiring precise tone shaping; its slim 3.170" × 0.822" profile fits into tight control cavities typical of modern bass and extended-range designs.
What frequencies can I adjust?
Three independent controls: Bass adjusts ±10dB at 30Hz, Mid adjusts ±10dB at 600Hz, and Treble adjusts ±12dB at 6kHz, covering the full spectrum needed for articulate instrument response.
Do I pay sales tax on this order?
