## Description

The legendary Whammy pedal is the premier pitch-shifting pedal for any guitarist's board, and it only gets better with time. In addition to the classic Whammy sound, we've added chordal Whammy pitch-shifting and true bypass. Whammy artists have won over 60 Grammys using its unique pitch-shifting sound to enhance their music. Its songs echo the hallways of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and generate acclaim on over 700 million albums around the world. There is no doubt why Whammy is one of the most common sights on guitarists' pedal boards. The Whammy can bring new depth to your artistry. Turn your solo into raging, rebellious screams of tone or tame your crowd with highly expressive, ambient chordal bends. Energize your audience with a scratchy note frenzy, bring them in and out of the sound tunnel with musical bursts, or carry them through an existential exploration of full-fret board pitch translation. The Whammy puts expression into the expression pedal. Don't be the last guitarist without a Whammy!
