Similarity
citedBlended 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.

Description

The Electronic Audio Experiments Longsword Eastside Exclusive Mono Camo is a retailer-exclusive colorway of the standard Longsword V4.5, sold through Eastside Music Supply in White, Grey, and Black camo finishes at the same price point as the standard-finish pedal. The underlying circuit is identical to the V4.5: the same op-amp-based cascaded-gain overdrive spanning clean boost to wall-of-sound distortion, shelving Bass/Treble, sweepable active Mid EQ, and broad frequency response suited to guitar, baritone, and bass. The edition exists purely as a cosmetic variant for collectors and Eastside customers wanting a distinctive finish.

The Electronic Audio Experiments Longsword V4.5 is an op-amp-based cascaded-gain overdrive spanning clean boost through wall-of-sound distortion, with shelving Bass and Treble controls plus a sweepable active Mid EQ, built with a broad frequency response suited to guitar, baritone guitar, and bass. The V4.5 hardware revision introduced a new enclosure and mechanical format, added over-voltage and ESD protection circuitry, and shifted the Low/High crossover point by roughly 500Hz to reduce interactivity between the EQ controls, representing the current mainline version of the pedal.
