Each EarthQuaker Devices pedal is built to Jamie’s exacting specifications, with a straightforward, hard-charging approach that makes it easy to get several great tones from each pedal.

That’s why we’re excited to announce that, for the fifth year in a row, we’re partnering with EarthQuaker Devices to bring you a series of pedals featuring some of our favorite EarthQuaker circuits in a one-of-one visual finish! When these pedals are gone, they’re GONE, so grab yours today!

The Most Important Effect? The Effect of Having Fun!

EarthQuaker Devices’ Akron, Ohio team stays on top of their game by having fun, not only with the ways that they add tonal depth to their circuits and push them to their logical limits, but by tinkering with the looks of their pedals long after they’ve hit the market.

This leads to dozens of alternate colorways each year for some of their most popular pedals, and we’re proud to pass those alternates on to you! This is an easy way to make your pedalboard pop by putting as much personality into your look as you put into your playing!

Since 2022, we’ve partnered with EarthQuaker Devices to bring you special editions of the pedals that countless players all over the world use to paint sonic masterpieces! Each of these pedals has a unique look, so check out our entire offering of CME Exclusive EarthQuaker Devices One-of-a-Kind Pedals for 2026, and grab the one that’s perfect for your pedalboard!
