Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.45% — somewhat different

The Browne Amplification Protein White is a limited White finish edition of the Montreal boutique builder's flagship dual-channel overdrive pedal. The circuit combines the Carbon channel, a transparent Bluesbreaker-style low-gain overdrive, with the Gritador channel, a mid-forward Tube Screamer-influenced drive, each with independent gain, volume, tone controls, and a three-way mid-shift toggle. The circuit and tonal character are identical to the standard Protein. Suited for blues, indie, and country players seeking organic, touch-sensitive dual-channel foundation overdrive.
The Electronic Audio Experiments Limelight is a dual overdrive pedal inspired by the Marshall Bluesbreaker circuit, designed for players who want a chimey, open, and articulate overdrive voice with dual independent gain stages. Each stage can be engaged independently or together for stacked gain textures, and the Bluesbreaker-derived voicing provides a mid-forward, harmonically rich saturation that suits indie rock, post-punk, and alternative styles. The Limelight is built in the United States with premium discrete components.
