Grind
The Fortin Amplification Grind is a masterful distortion pedal that takes the concept of "grind" to a whole new level. Developed by the renowned amp builder Mike Fortin, this compact stompbox packs the punch and personality of his legendary 6IRTH and 6RIND circuits into a streamlined, single-knob design. What makes the Grind so special is its ability to sculpt your tone with laser-like precision. The carefully voiced boost circuit adds a punchy, focused aggression to your sound, tightening up your low-end and accentuating the harmonics that give your playing its bite and edge. Whether you're driving a tube amp into saturation or pushing a solid-state rig to the brink, the Grind's powerful boost will transform your tone, transforming clean tones into snarling, high-gain havoc. But this pedal isn't just about raw power - it's about preserving the nuance and character of your instrument. The Grind's high input impedance ensures that every subtle pick attack, string vibration, and wood resonance is faithfully captured, resulting in a distortion tone that's as expressive as it is ferocious. Beloved by metal virtuosos like Misha Mansoor of Periphery, the Fortin Amplification Grind is a must-have for any guitarist seeking to unlock new levels of tonal aggression and intensity. Proudly made in Canada, this pedal is a testament to Fortin's relentless pursuit of sonic perfection.
