This is the video that put me off, although i still think it’s a good purchase for the money. 
 

 

 

Says that the EQ is boost only. All the other reviews I've seen say it's boost and cut.

 

I shall have more of a play tomorrow.

Thanks. If it’s boost and cut I’ll get one asap.

Just had a short play with it to confirm. Yes, it's boost/cut, just doesn't have a centre detente. As bass amps all have their own characteristic pre-baked EQ curves, centre detentes are a bit meaningless anyway. I think the reviewer doesn't understand the MID controls - the manual explains it, very briefly. It's a sweepable mid, with a MID FREQ control to set the frequency to cut/boost (200Hz to 2kHz) and a MID control to do the cutting/boosting.
