Electronic Audio Experiments (EAE) is a boutique pedal company based in the USA, known for crafting innovative and high-quality effects pedals that push sonic boundaries. Founded by John Snyder, EAE specialises in designing unique, experimental circuits that cater to musicians looking for rich textures, dynamic response, and creative soundscapes. Their pedals, such as the **Model feT** and **Longsword**, are particularly popular among players who seek powerful overdrive, distortion, and amp-like tones with exceptional clarity and depth. With a focus on meticulous engineering and premium components, Electronic Audio Experiments has gained a loyal following among guitarists and bassists who appreciate handcrafted, cutting-edge effects.

Boost Pedal

A boost pedal is used to increase the overall volume or gain of an instrument’s signal, typically without adding distortion or altering the tone drastically. It’s commonly used to push the amp into overdrive, making solos stand out or increasing the power of the signal for a more pronounced sound. Boost pedals can also be used to emphasise specific frequencies, helping the instrument cut through the mix during performances.

There are different types of boost pedals, such as clean boost and colored boost. Clean boost preserves the natural tone of the instrument while increasing the volume, whereas colored boost can alter the sound slightly, adding warmth, presence, or a subtle tonal shift. Popular boost pedals include models from Xotic, Electro-Harmonix, and TC Electronic, each offering different features like EQ controls, low noise, and transparency, allowing players to tailor their boost to fit their unique playing style.

Overdrive

Overdrive is a popular guitar effect that creates a warm, distorted sound by amplifying the signal of an electric guitar, typically using a pedal or an amp’s built-in circuit. The effect simulates the natural distortion that occurs when a tube amplifier is pushed to its limit, creating a rich, harmonic response that adds sustain, warmth, and character to the tone. Overdrive pedals are commonly used to add grit and growl to a clean tone without the harshness of full distortion.

The overdrive effect works by boosting the input signal, causing the amplifier to break up and clip the waveform, resulting in a smooth, musical distortion. This is often more subtle and less aggressive than other forms of distortion, making overdrive pedals ideal for blues, classic rock, and country players who seek a dynamic sound that responds to their playing touch. Overdrive pedals can be used in conjunction with other effects like delay and reverb to shape a more complex, evolving sound. Popular overdrive pedals include the Ibanez Tube Screamer, the Fulltone OCD, and the Boss OD-3, each offering different tonal characteristics, from smooth and bluesy to punchy and aggressive.

v2

V2 stands for Version 2, meaning an updated or improved version of an existing pedal. Manufacturers release V2 models when they refine the circuit, add new features, improve build quality, or enhance performance based on user feedback.

For example, the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi V2 had circuit changes compared to the original, and Strymon released V2 versions of their pedals with MIDI capabilities and upgraded DSP.If

you’re looking at a pedal labeled V2, it means it’s a newer revision with some level of improvement over the first version.
