The Pearl GE-09 is a vintage 9-band graphic equalizer pedal, made in Japan and admired for its high-quality build and precise tone-shaping capabilities. With its sturdy metal housing and wide frequency range, it delivers detailed control over your sound, making it a powerful tool for both subtle adjustments and dramatic tonal sculpting. This particular unit, serial number 901896, represents Pearl’s reputation for producing rugged and reliable effects during the golden age of Japanese pedal manufacturing.
The GE-09 features nine individual sliders, each controlling a specific frequency band, along with a Level control for overall output adjustment. This allows guitarists and bassists to fine-tune their tone across the spectrum—whether cutting muddiness, boosting mids for solos, or tightening low-end response. Its flexibility makes it equally suitable for shaping clean tones, enhancing overdriven sounds, or even dialing in unique EQ curves for experimental music.
With its vintage Japanese craftsmanship and precision, the Pearl GE-09 remains a sought-after equalizer pedal for players and collectors alike. It’s a versatile and reliable unit that continues to impress decades after its release.
