Fish Circuits

Fish Circuits is the work of one man who, fuelled by a lack of money to buy real pedals, decided in 2007 to start experimenting with guitar effects circuits. Over the years, demand came mostly from friends who wanted clones or modified versions of popular circuits and it resulted in dozens of sketchy prototypes housed in unpainted 125b enclosures. None of them looked good and the sound was hit or miss but the endless experimentations eventually lead to more hit than misses. The first version of the Model One, based on another popular overdrive, was developed fairly early in those years and was an instant favourite. It was ugly and had some technical issues due to inexperience but the sound was on point. Then 2020 and it's pandemic hit. This meant that free time wasn't so hard to come by anymore leading to developing the final version of the Model One. This version would finally have the looks and reliability to go with the sound that it produces. Today, our pedals are basically tanks. Tanks that sound amazing that is. After all, tone is what we've been after all these years and I believe we got something pretty freakin' good here. All our pedals are proudly handmade in French, in Québec. Although this is currently a one man operation, it wouldn't be possible without the help, advice and guidance from friends and family. You guys know who you are and I can't thank you enough. Oh and, why Fish Circuits? Fish is my last name, in English.
