Graphic EQ to add low end to fuzzfactory

Really quick:

Have a fuzzfactory and want to drop the tone. I'm thinking about getting a 4 switch loooper. I would put my fuzz factory with a graphic EQ to drop their combined tone, but not the tone of everything else. Got any suggestions as to which EQ to use? I want a major boost to the low end, but no added fuzz.

Maybe Boss? Behringer? Something reliable but cheap.

maybe get a wooly mammoth... those things are pretty much fuzz factories but with enhanced bottom end designed for use with a bass guitar.... but also sounds great with guitar. zachary vex rules.

Get a dano fishnchips man, pretty decent pedal for like 50 bones brand new. You can definitely boost the low end with that and its good for pretty much anything you throw at it, nice and quiet too.

Behringer EQ

I think I'm trying to go for bang for the buck here. The Daneo is a good idea, but there's something I just don't trust about it. The Boss is great too, but if I can get away with paying $50 less for a Behringer and it being just as good, I'm going to go with that. Anyone?

I would get the Behringer because I dont think its goiiing to be what you are after. This way you dont spend a lot of money.

Just bought a Behringer for $20 on Ebay. The seller is from Canada - just in case anyone else is looking. I think he/she has four left.

I don't trust Daneo's because of their switch. The plastic isn't really the issue - I just have a distrust of those plastic circles.

Indytruckboy - You don't think what will be what I'm after? It makes perfect sense - I run a signal through the fuzz factory and boost the low end before the signal returns back to the chain. I am by no means an expert on the subject of signal strength, but this one I'm confident with.
