About EarthQuaker Devices
Musician Jamie Stillman founded the firm in 2004 after repairing a broken overdrive and selling one-off builds. Early production ran from the basement of his West Akron home; the first full production pedal, the Hoof fuzz, appeared in 2007 and demand soon allowed full-time pedal building.
In 2011 Julie Robbins joined as CEO and the workshop left the basement for larger Akron premises. In 2015 the company renovated its present multi-thousand-square-foot Bowery Street building, where design remains centred on Stillman's circuits and pedals continue to be built by hand with a lifetime warranty.
Players comparing boutique fuzz, ambient delay and unusual modulation options often meet EarthQuaker as a US-made line with a wide, idiosyncratic pedal range rather than a single flagship circuit.
