EarthQuaker Devices

EarthQuaker Devices is an American company that specializes in designing and manufacturing high-quality guitar effects pedals. Based in Akron, Ohio, and founded in 2004 by Jamie Stillman, the company has become known for its innovative and experimental approach to sound manipulation.

Unconventional sounds

Initially, Stillman, a musician and DIY enthusiast, began modifying and building pedals for personal use, which evolved into EarthQuaker Devices. Over time, the company has built a strong reputation among musicians for its hand-built, boutique-style pedals that range from classic effects like distortion, delay, and reverb, to more unique and unconventional sounds.

Each pedal is meticulously crafted with a focus on creativity, durability, and usability. The company has gained a dedicated following among guitarists, bassists, and experimental musicians for its ability to produce rich, dynamic tones that push sonic boundaries.
