Fjord Fuzz MÅNE

Fjord Fuzz · pedal

The Fjord Fuzz MANE (Norwegian for moon, spelled MANE for URL compatibility) is a fuzz pedal from Norwegian boutique maker Fjord Fuzz, with its naming evoking the cool, filtered quality of moonlight. The moon naming suggests a softer, more filtered fuzz character contrasting with the aggressive sun and fire imagery of other Fjord Fuzz models. Fjord Fuzz builds handmade boutique fuzz pedals in Norway with Norse and Norwegian cultural naming, and the MANE fuzz represents the more restrained, filtered aesthetic within the lineup.
