Description
Few pedals have shaped rock guitar history like the Whammy. This 5th Generation model keeps the pitch-bending drama that made it a pedalboard staple while pushing the algorithms further, giving you smoother tracking and a new Chords mode that shifts full chords convincingly instead of just single notes.
- Classic mode for the signature Whammy dive-bombs, harmonies, and detune effects guitarists have leaned on for decades
- Chords mode extends pitch-shifting to full chordal passages, opening up ambient textures and layered harmony work
- True bypass keeps your dry signal untouched when the effect is off
- 10 Whammy settings for pitch bends, 9 Harmony settings for interval stacking, and 2 Detune settings for subtle thickening
- Rugged metal chassis built to handle the pedal’s signature aggressive foot-rocking use
- MIDI input for integrating pitch changes into programmable rigs and complex signal chains
- 9V DC power adapter included
Placement matters with the Whammy — run it early in your chain, before drive and modulation, to keep pitch tracking accurate and your tone consistent whether you’re screaming into a solo or blending an octave-up shimmer beneath a clean chord. It’s the same effect that’s colored records behind more than 60 Grammy wins and hundreds of millions of album sales, used by players ranging from The Edge and Jimmy Page to Tom Morello and Jack White.
Whether you want unhinged pitch-bent leads, ambient chordal swells, or precise harmony stacking, the Whammy 5th Gen delivers the range without asking you to compromise on tracking speed or tone.
