Meshuggah’s legendary guitarist Fredrik Thordendal’s signature 33® pedal is a sonic detonation tool that will transform any gain fueled amplifier into an unrelenting wrecking ball of metal!
At Fortin, we are renowned for chasing only the greatest metal tones imaginable. We have nothing short of lazer focus to develop the most crushing modern guitar tones, tones that are worthy of an artist like Fredrik - to make a pedal he can proudly put his name to.
Through countless hours of research, design, development, prototyping, sampling, planning, reviewing and almost endless tweaking, we are proud to present the Fredrik Thordendal signature 33® pedal!
The mental control: Increase this to drive the front end of your amp harder. The more you increase it, the more your tone will start to jump out of your amp. Don’t be afraid to tweak the amp controls when your amp is reactng the way you want it to - with this level of boost, sneaky frequencies and harmonics may start to appear... make your sound your own!

The Fortin 33 is an absolute beast! This pedal is a game-changer for dialing in your tone. The way it shapes the character of distortion is unmatched—tight, punchy, and articulate.

Whether you’re riffing or soloing, this pedal adds a whole new dimension to your sound. Highly recommend it to anyone serious about their tone!

Tight pedal
No other pedal will tighten up your sound like this thing and the sweep on the knob is perfect. I could not be more satisfied if you have an amp that has a lot of low end is out of control, look no further!! A ton of gain on tap as well, sustain and saturation.
They are, the only difference is the physical size!
What do the switch and the Jack on the side do?
We think that you may only want to use the 33 on only one channel of your amp. All you have to do is plug a cable from the side jack to the channel changer on the your amp, and when you turn the 33 on or off the channel on your amp will change. The switch is to change the polarity so you can decide which channel you want to have the 33 on!
