It’s hard to get much more straightforward than with a name like EarthQuaker. Handmade in the depths of Akron, Ohio, EarthQuaker guitar effects pedals do precisely what it says on the tin: give you complete and total control over earth-shattering sonic forces compressed into pedal form. Their fuzz and delay pedal lineups, in particular, pushes the envelope of what a fuzz and a delay pedal can do or sound like—and you get to hold the reins.

Distortion
EarthQuaker Devices Acapulco Gold V2
How many control knobs does a good distortion guitar effect pedal really need? EarthQuaker Devices’s answer is “one.” The Acapulco Gold V2 may only have one giant dial, but it lets you access a whole gamut of distortion tones based on a cranked-up Sunn Model T amp. You get subtle, quiet distortion to ball-to-the-wall growls that stay super responsive to picking dynamics and volume control. The V2 also builds on EarthQuaker Devices’s excellent first version by adding an upgraded super-silent switching system.

The Afterneath V2 builds upon the original with the addition of an upgraded silent switching system.
