I concur 100% with what Doug has suggested. Furthermore, our bass player often asks that I use the board’s EQ to build him a bigger playground (cut my guitar’s bass way back, and trim his top end).
I just picked up a Radial PZ-DI. This is a well made DI box with an adjustable HPF. For my OO sized guitar, the DI’s filter is at about noon and the Lyric’s presence is about ¼ turn from zero.
The sound is pretty good, it allows the board’s EQ to be nearly flat, and is in keeping with my “don’t add more pre-amps” philosophy.
