MIDGARD Fuzz + Pickup Simulation Pedal (Black Sand)

Fjord Fuzz MIDGARD

MIDGARD from Fjord Fuzz opens a new chapter in the storied history of saturation, delivering a classic fuzz with an innovative, onboard pickup simulator for all the clean-up you need in any signal chain. In this exclusive Black and Sand colorway, MIDGARD is ready to bring sleek aesthetics and smart tone shaping to your pedalboard. At the heart of MIDGARD lies a BC108 fuzz circuit, offering a classic two-knob fuzz effect with independent gain and volume controls. The fuzz cleans up just like vintage circuits, allowing you to use your guitar's volume control to dial back the saturation especially with single coil, low output pickups, giving you a classic source of expressive control. Where MIDGARD goes beyond this classic configuration is in its dual input design, which provides both the normal, unbuffered input at the top, as well as a dedicated input with pickup simulation and buffering.

In this additional input, the pickup simulation is always on, enabling a wide range of applications. For example, fuzz circuits typically require placement directly after your guitar for the best clean-up response—in MIDGARD, creative options abound, letting you place anything before it and still have plenty of clean-up capability with the onboard expression pedal input, which controls the volume of the pickup simulation. You can also use this input as a reamplification station for creative production techniques, or as a way to get optimal response when using instruments other than guitar with guitar-centric devices like amps and pedals. Finally, MIDGARD is made with premium OPA1656 opamps for buffering and power handling, ensuring a studio grade signal in any set-up. If you're after a great looking fuzz that expands your creative toolset both on pedalboards and beyond, MIDGARD from Fjord Fuzz is sure to bring new possibilities to your workflow.
