from 747 reviewsThe 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!
An of pedal, but one that is well designed and a nice addition to any collection.
You have to knob how the knobs work. And you need to do a bit of knob twisting to figure this pedal out.
Have fun.
Simple and easy to use. Scratches the itch for a solid one knob fuzz.
The second foot switch is an added feature that makes this pedal unique and is a very thoughtful addition to the one knob fuzz genre.
Not much to say, another great offering from Bleak District.
The gain in particular has a unique grainy texture.
Love it.
Nothing beats a good MXR vintage grey 70’s flanger, but this is as cool as it gets.
Bit of knob twisting nothing too difficult.
Worth buying for your post-punk influence.
I love this fuzz. I use it to play some Lenny Kravitz and some Led Zeppelin tunes. It's a really musical pedal. It’s not just some drone like monotone fuzz. I really like it.
Does everything the original pedal does very well. Contrary to popular opinion, not just for copycat In Utero sounds.
Only thing is that you’ll need to purchase your own 18-watt power supply.
Incredible.
This pedal is definitely weird but fun. Takes a little knob twisting, but can be very rewarding with a bit of patience.
Very high build quality, well worth the price.
Fun and creative pedal. Easy to navigate. This is a different genre of pedal than most of what I buy. Super cool.
This is my first filter pedal, and certainly fills a void that no other pedal in my collection covers. I love how it can take your signal, suck it through a sonic black hole until it all but disappears, then spit it back out with whatever ferocity you dial in. This is one of those pedals where I like to feed it a loop and then play the pedal. Equally fun and usable on synths or guitar, and the stereo spread sounds divine. You can go from glitchy lo-fi to a John Carpenter soundtrack with ease, what's not to love?
On the reverb side you've got a no-nonsense 3 knob plate verb. It doesn't need any fancy tricks or oddly named knobs because it's busy sounding absolutely fantastic. In stereo it's H U G E. Much like the Polyphrase, there's no bad settings.
The vibrato is the secret sauce that makes this pedal truly unique. I've never been much of a vibrato person until now, they always sounded too gimmicky. This one is natural and subtle, I'm a convert. Push a drive into the vibrato side and you're in T. Rex territory. The 'verb and vibrato together is a match made in heaven (or maybe Las Vegas). Flipping which side feeds the other completely changes the character. For a 5 knob pedal there's a ton of versatility crammed in.
This is the stereo ping pong delay I've been waiting for my whole life. You get an insane 22 seconds of digital delay, but somehow it sounds as warm and natural as my Analogman delay. The knobs are what you'd expect on a delay, and they interact well. There isn't a bad setting. The sliders can create some really fun stereo warbles and a wide spread. And in mono mode, you can use the extra in/outs as an effects loop. Stick a flanger or envelope filter in there and go crazy.
The saturation side covers A LOT of ground. The sliders with the db selectors are a tone sculpting machine. The detune can do a lush chorus right up to some Captain Beefheart weirdness. Saturate + Detune is post-punk goodness (PiL, Siouxsie, Cure) or instant Come as You Are, take your pick. I have it at the end of a wet/dry/wet board and the saturation glues the two wet amps together while the chorus provides just enough fluidity even when barely on to make you miss it when you turn it off.
