Do you like effects pedals? We do! Here at EarthQuaker Devices, we like pedals so much that we make them one-at-a-time, by hand, the hard way, in the idyllic post-apocalyptic wasteland metropolis of Akron, Ohio, USA - where the soldering smoke blocks out the sun, and the fiery Cuyahoga River pumps white-hot liquid magma into the steam engine that powers our great riff factory in the sky. Our Philosophy We believe that effects pedals should be simple and user-friendly, with lots of practical, useable, and musical sounds, but should also be a launchpad for sonic exploration and aural innovation. Most of all, they should always work correctly all of the time, which is why each and every single EarthQuaker Devices pedal is hand built, hand tested, and guaranteed for life! We use only the highest quality components, but if for some crazy reason your pedal does break, send it back to us and we will fix it for you! History Jamie Stillman's interest in electronics began the day his favorite overdrive broke. After seeing how simple the pedal was on the inside, Jamie thought to himself, “A-ha! Making effects pedals is so easy, anybody could do it!” Before long, Jamie made his first production-run pedal, the majestic Hoof fuzz, which found its way to festival stages around the world. Word got around about this one-of-a-kind custom made fuzz pedal, and almost overnight all the guitar forums were abuzz about this mystery fuzz from Akron, Ohio, and EarthQuaker Devices took off. Present Day What started in a basement in Akron, Ohio is now an international phenomenon employing 40+ proud guitar nerds, a bunch of bearded dudes, and a couple ladies. After more NAMM “Best in Show” awards, Guitar World “Gold Awards,” and Premier Guitar “Editor's Picks” than we can even count, EarthQuaker Devices is turning to the horizons of the global marketplace to bring the noise worldwide.

Welcome to the realm of Pigtronix! We are inspired to design and manufacture futuristic analog effects. Each one of our pedals is a unique and original creation, containing forward thinking design features not found in other stompboxes. In recent years, much of the effects market has been focused on a “vintage” sensibility. While many effects companies address this phenomenon by either cloning classic designs or creating digital emulations, Pigtronix strives to push beyond the sonic boundaries of the past. Each of our pedals contain features that are not found anywhere else, allowing musicians to make sounds that no one has heard ever before. Pigtronix pedals feature extensive sound shaping capabilities and multiple footswitches, enabling musicians to access a broad spectrum of analog tones during a live performance or in a recording environment. Each pedal contains a palette of effects that ranges from subtle to extreme. In addition to versatility and ingenuity you will find a consistent emphasis on tonal clarity and touch responsive performance across our entire product line.
