sounds like the ABS is kicking in, could possibly be some dirt in the sensor rings or a shot sensor

Could be the pads worn down to the metal?

As in feedback?? Does this happen under normal or hard braking?

That will be your ABS kicking in

something is triggering the ABS prematurely. Like I said get on the ABS rings with a wire brush and make sure nothing is stuck in any of them
