The Aguilar DB 316 Mid-EQ is an equalizer pedal that focuses on midrange precision. From the Tone Hammer series, it takes the preamp that made the brand's reputation and adapts it into a compact format for easy integration on any pedalboard. Its parametric equalization allows you to adjust frequencies between 180 Hz and 1 kHz, with an amplitude of ±17 dB to sculpt a tailor-made sound. Whether you use it to rebalance a passive bass or complement active electronics, this pedal blends into your setup with formidable efficiency.

Mids are the heart of a bass sound: too hollow and the instrument disappears in the mix; too present and the groove becomes invasive. The Aguilar DB 316 provides the solution with precise and flexible control, designed to shape the sound exactly as you want. Inspired by the Tone Hammer preamp, it allows you to exploit a spectrum from 180 Hz to 1 kHz, with a gain adjustment of up to ±17 dB.
An ideal asset to compensate for the lack of a three-band EQ or to refine the personality of a passive bass. Are you looking to thicken a sound that is too thin, give more attack to your pick playing or even calm overly shrill highs? This pedal adapts to your needs without imposing excessive sound color.

If the reduced size of the DB 316 suggests a minimalist effect, its sonic impact says otherwise. Its ultra-compact format hides a robust steel design, ready to withstand hours of rehearsal and repeated concerts.
Its flexibility of use makes it a go-anywhere tool: it can function as a permanent EQ, or serve as a secondary preset to instantly switch between two different sound curves. Enough to refine an incisive slap, warm up a muffled sound, or simply find a natural balance in a demanding mix.

In a live or studio context, adaptability is essential. With the Aguilar DB 316, you have total control over your midrange and can adjust your sound signature on the fly. A song with an acoustic band may require more body, while playing in an amplified group will require better piercing in the mix.
Here, no compromise: the pedal follows your playing and adapts to the way you interact with your instrument. Compact but terribly effective, it quickly becomes a natural extension of your bass, always ready to adjust the sound with precision and musicality.

Aguilar no longer has to prove its expertise in bass amplification and sound processing. For years, the brand has established itself as a reference for musicians looking for warmth and precision. The Tone Hammer range, from which the DB 316 comes, has won over many bassists thanks to its organic and intuitive approach. Here, the same philosophy is applied to a small-format pedal, capable of bringing a real change without disrupting an existing setup.
