Fjord Fuzz Mime
Fjord Fuzz · pedal
The Fjord Fuzz MIME is a dual-mode reverb pedal from Fjord Fuzz, the Norwegian boutique pedal builder, developed in collaboration with an AI. Two reverb characters — RED mode and BLUE mode — inhabit a single pedal. RED mode delivers a dark, warm, cozy reverb tail with dynamic sensitivity. BLUE mode provides a brighter, metallic, plate-like reverb particularly effective with clean or less distorted guitar signals. Analogue circuit with mix and feedback controls provides basic but expressive playback.
