Boutique Nordic Grit with a Cult Following – Now Available Pre-Owned

From the frostbitten fjords of Norway comes a fuzz pedal with serious artistic intent. The Fjord Fuzz Embla is no ordinary drive box—it’s a hand-crafted, tone-shaping tool designed to blur the lines between overdrive and fuzz, offering a unique voice that sits somewhere between vintage breakup and modern chaos. And now, you can get your hands on this cult favourite pre-owned, fully tested and ready to roar again.

At lower gain settings, the Embla behaves more like a snarling overdrive: articulate, touch-responsive, and surprisingly dynamic. Push it harder, and it unfurls into thick, harmonically rich fuzz that maintains musicality even at high saturation. This duality is what sets the Embla apart—it doesn’t just distort your sound; it responds to it, rewarding nuance and playstyle with textures that range from warm grit to grainy bloom.

Handmade in small batches using top-shelf components, the Embla is minimalist in layout but deep in tone. A simple two-knob interface (Gain and Level) makes it easy to dial in, while the internal voicing—based on classic circuits but reimagined by Fjord’s idiosyncratic design philosophy—makes every note feel intentionally mangled or gloriously clear.

As a pre-owned unit, this particular Embla shows only light cosmetic wear from gentle use, with full functionality intact. It has been professionally inspected, cleaned, and tested by our team here at Musicmaker to ensure it's in excellent working condition. These pedals are rare to find new, and even rarer to find on the second-hand market in this condition.
