Fairfield Circuitry The Unpleasant Surprise Fuzz Pedal

Fairfield Circuitry The Unpleasant Surprise - Experimental Fuzz/Gate

Reminisce about the time you got your shoulder caught in the reciprocating saw while this unit destroys your slick jazz lines.

The fruit of an oddball circuit, hanging there awkwardly by some parasitic effect. Tweaked, bended and shoe-horned to optimize it's stench, it's unpleasance. Time has come to turn all dynamics to shit. Strangely, it feels very natural.

As The Unpleasant Surprise turns your playing style upside down, you’ll be thankful for its ability to push you outside the box, outside your comfort zone, all the while retaining the essence of what is played. The artifacts created by this pedal are strange, harsh and unusual but never seem mis - placed or out of context.


About Fairfield Circuitry

Founded in 2008, Fairfield Circuitry and creator Guillaume Fairfield have had an unquestionable impact on the FX pedal category. Multiple hits like Shallow Water, Randy’s Revenge, and the Barbershop have earned a long-standing reputation for some of the most known and uniquely notable boutique pedals produced to date. A simplistic almost brutalist design aesthetic seemingly dares the user to discover the electronic creativity within each unit. Users find ground-breaking interpretations of both classic and unusual sounds emanating throughout the entire catalogue. Fairfield Circuitry is based in Quebec, Canada.
