Fairfield Circuitry Four Eyes
It’s hard to stick out in the saturated fuzz market, but Fairfield Circuitry’s Four Eyes Crossover Fuzz does so with aplomb. Three parallel JFET fuzz circuits, a voltage-controlled state variable filter, and a three-band EQ let you use the Four Eyes to explore a vast world of fuzzed-out tonal possibilities. From super thin to extra fat, from a subtle whisper to an aggressive scream, smooth vintage germanium to hard-edged silicon, you can get more fuzz tones out of the Four Eyes than you ever thought possible.

Delay
Fairfield Circuitry Meet Maude
Fairfield Circuitry’s Meet Maude analog delay guitar effects pedal doesn’t just repeat the notes you play, it lets you use dedicated Tone and Feedback controls to mold and shape those reproductions into foreboding growls, heartbreaking wails, or anything else in between. The Meet Maude pedal features bucket brigade circuitry, 50ms to 500ms of delay time, and just the right knobs and switches to turn organic tape echo-style delay effects into mad science experiments in tonal decay.

Overdrive
Fairfield Circuitry Modele B
The Modele B is the perfect stompbox for people who love the Fairfield Barbershop overdrive pedal so much that they never even turn it off. It’s a tiny, always-on version of the Barbershop featuring the same circuitry and sound but sans the footswitch and the indicator light. Inside is a jumper that lets you pick between two tonal options: flat and wide, like the original Barbershop and the middle-position tone of the Millenium edition, and a light, high-frequency cut similar to the Millenium edition Barbershop’s right tone position.

Fairfield Circuitry Randy’s Revenge
We don’t know who pissed Randy off, but his revenge is pretty darn sweet. The Randy’s Revenge effects pedal from Fairfield Circuitry is a tonally rich, all-analog ring modulator with that patented Fairfield edge. This pedal takes the whole ring modulation concept—multiplying the guitar signal with a sine wave or another simple waveform—by using not one but two simple waveforms in the mix, in this case, a sine wave and a square wave. This gives you a very wide range of highly musical tremolo and vibe effects.

Fairfield Circuitry Shallow Water
Fairfield Circuitry took simulation mathematics—or K-field math—theory and used it to create a stompbox capable of generating familiar but still unique tone modulation effects. The Shallow Water effects pedal creates a short time delay then randomly modulates the delayed signal to give it a sprinkling of unexpected pitch shifts. The Shallow Water might look like some simple aluminum box, but this versatile stomp gives you a wide range of chorus, vibrato, pitch-shifting, and other vintage tape-style effects with which to wash your signal.

Compressor
Fairfield Circuitry The Accountant
Simple, unassuming, and can crunch numbers like a pro—the Accountant is everything you need to keep you signal tight. This JFET feedback compressor-based pedal features a fixed threshold but you still get a a pair of three-position switches to cook up your own compression flavor. Its lone knob controls volume, and while the Accountant isn’t exactly built to ac as a boost pedal, you can still use the Volume knob to give your signal some extra oomph. Whether you’re looking for shallow, subtle compression or a foll-on squash, you turn to the Accountant.

Fairfield Circuitry The Barbershop
Underneath the Barbershop Millenium Edition’s utilitarian design and simple three-knob interface, there lurks a grit-heavy overdrive that’ll make you swoon. Simple controls make this stomp quick to set and easy to use. Drive controls input gain, Volume controls output gain, and Sag lets you control how much voltage it sends to your amp. Use the Barbershop to enhance or quickly grit up a clean amp channel or push an already-dirty channel into harmonically-rich saturation levels.

Fairfield Circuitry The Unpleasant Surprise
If you’re looking for a simple, straightforward fuzz pedal, then the Unpleasant Surprise will surely live up to its name. For those who want to dabble in mad fuzz science, however, this unique fuzz pedal from Fairfield Circuitry is anything but unpleasant. A pair of Volume and Onset knobs plus a trio of switches controlling treble cut, amplifier bias, and compression let you dish out some of the weirdest and most unique fuzz tones ever conjured up by man. The Unpleasant Surprise is not subtle, not average, and definitely not for the faint of heart.
