I'm the proud new owner of a lightly used Retro 2A3 tube EQ (Pultec style). Wow!!!

It arrived just in time to put a truly magical touch on bass drum and snare.

Can anybody suggest some favorite uses?

I tried it briefly on the master buss but I thought best to leave that duty to the mastering engineer...

No kidding!!!
