I had been pretty set with my gain section for a while and I know what I like before I discovered all of the EAE pedals. I knew what my ears were telling me, but told myself could this actually be better than what I have?

To make a long story short, oh yeah

The Longsword is the best OD/Distortion I’ve ever played and fits with so many other pedals and most importantly in a mix. Can’t recommend highly enough!

Really loving the Seafarer. The reverb sounds great, and the grit is a really nice addition. it gives it a lot of character without feeling like it’s just thrown in there.

The modulation is probably my favorite part. It can be really subtle and atmospheric, but you can also crank it and get completely insane sounds.

The graphics and layout are just beautiful. It looks great on the board and the controls are easy to get around. I have mine running vertical on my board.

This reverb is excellent for lofi textures. Between the drive, random tremolo, LFO, low pass filter, and chorus, you can build amazing ambient soundscapes. Definitely a keeper for me!

Great pedal, best spinner I’ve got, and doesn’t weigh 200 lbs
Sound Shoppe NYC is the best place to buy pedals !
My favorite
Highly recommended

Fantastic—an incredibly versatile pedal with swirling ambience and remarkable depth. There’s almost too much to explore, with endless possibilities. This is definitely more than just an ambient effect; it feels perfectly suited to what I do and the sounds I love creating.

Sound Shoppe NYC is also one of the best sources for unique boutique effects. Their offerings are thoughtfully organized and easy to navigate, making it simple to explore pedals by type and discover unusual new sounds. I especially appreciate their extensive video demos, which let you hear the full range and capabilities of each pedal before buying.

On its own, this pedal delivers great distortion with excellent tone shaping and gain structure capabilities.
The white noise circuit is a bit unusual but I’ll find a way to put it to good use in time.

as someone that loves heavy music like my bloody valentine it's very hard to find a pedal that creates those tones. most distortion is fuzz or metal. somehow this pedal is the perfect balance between edge of break up, overdrive and distortion. can get amazing clean tones for chicken pickin' on a telecaster or heavy single notes like dinosaur jr. i use this in conjunction with my mxr micro amp at the end of OD chain for boost and my ODD warm pedal.

Unique distortion pedal with its own sound.
Band pass filter can drastically alter the tone and gain structure.
Cool tones from an interesting and unique pedal builder.

These have been around for quite some time now and is still in production.
Basically a Muff style fuzz with its own vibe and sound.

This pedal is a great one. Different gain sounds and filter modulation. Most fuzz and distortion pedal require a separate expression pedals to get the band pass filters to modulate or something like a Recovery XVC to get these types of sounds.

Just wanted to add, this pedal is capable of more complex of an effect than I realized.
Be patient and do a lot of knob twisting.

This parelllel splitter looks great, does what it says, and does it well. Not only does this protect my modultion pedals from my wall of fuzz pedals, it opens up a whole new world of sonic mixing possibilities. Can’t believe the low cost and high quality. My first Yesterday Effect, certainly not my last. Like all my previous SSNYC purchases, the item arrived quickly and in protective packaging. Couldn’t be happier.

Just tried it out again with an expression pedal.
Coolest pedal ever.
So much fun.

The EAE Longsword V4.6 absolutely lives up to its reputation. It’s incredibly versatile, with everything from articulate low-gain drive to huge, aggressive distortion, while still retaining clarity and note definition. The EQ is exceptionally useful, and there’s a depth and responsiveness to the pedal that makes it feel much more like an amp than a typical distortion box. Build quality is outstanding as well.

Just as impressive was my experience with Sound Shoppe NYC. Great communication, fast shipping, and the pedal arrived exactly as expected. It’s always nice to find a dealer that clearly appreciates great gear and takes care of its customers. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from them again. Highly recommended.

Empty Head has done it again - the Seafarer is never leaving my board. This can go from a clean, spacey, slightly modulated reverb to an earth shattering wall of noise. This pedal will eliminate your need for a post-verb drive…if that’s your thing. It does the lo-fi thing exceptionally well. I’ve bumped several pedals off now that the Seafarer covers those sounds. Yup, it’s large, but it’ll take the job of at least 3-4 pedals in your rig. Just get one!
