Step into a world of rhythmic innovation with the EarthQuaker Devices Hummingbird V4, a tremolo pedal that combines vintage charm with modern versatility. Designed to evoke the iconic sounds of classic "repeat percussion" units, this pedal is your gateway to a diverse array of textures, from the shimmering waves of '50s rockabilly tremolo to edgy, synth-like pulses that push the boundaries of traditional soundscapes. The sawtooth waveform modulation ensures that every note you play has a unique character, adding depth and dynamism to your performance.

With its flexi-switch technology, the Hummingbird V4 offers both latching and momentary operation, giving you the flexibility to adapt to any musical situation. The pedal features three selectable modes—slow, mid-tempo, and fast—allowing you to easily tailor the tremolo speed to your liking. Its expression pedal input further enhances your creative control, enabling on-the-fly adjustments for dynamic performances.

Crafted with an all-analog circuit and true bypass, the Hummingbird V4 provides a pure signal path, ensuring your tone remains pristine. The JFET-driven Level control not only allows for clean gain adjustments but also transforms the pedal into a JFET clean booster when the Depth is set to zero. Handmade in Akron, Ohio, each unit reflects EarthQuaker Devices’ commitment to quality and innovation.
