About Us

Based in the picturesque city of Eugene, Oregon, Fuzzlord Effects is dedicated to handcrafting guitar effects pedals that blend the nostalgia of classic circuits with the innovation of modern technology. Our mission is simple: to take inspiration from and resurrect rare out-of-production circuits, infusing them with contemporary features to inspire musicians today.
In 2016, Fuzzlord Effects was founded by Jason Johnson, a musician and electrical engineer whose passion for music and electronics led him to the world of guitar effects pedals. Driven by a relentless curiosity and a deep reverence for the history of music gear, Jason embarked on a journey to dig deeper into the secrets behind classic fuzz pedals.
Every pedal we create at Fuzzlord Effects is a labor of love, crafted to capture the essence of the past while embracing the demands of the present. We delve into the origins of these timeless circuits, the iconic bands that made these pedals important, and the captivating stories and legends that surround them.
Our journey began with the introduction of our first pedal, the FET120, in 2016. Since then, we’ve expanded our lineup to offer over a dozen distinct guitar/bass effects pedals, each a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality and innovation.
But Fuzzlord Effects is more than just a pedal manufacturer; we strive to be an integral part of the music community. Through our presence on YouTube and the Fuzz Life podcast, we hope to share our passion and knowledge with musicians worldwide, helping them discover their unique sound and navigate the ever-evolving landscape of music gear.
At Fuzzlord Effects, we invite you to join our love of music, where the past meets the present, and creativity knows no bounds, and let Fuzzlord Effects be your partner in shaping the sound of tomorrow.
