One of Ten New Dirt Pedals You Need in 2026
Guitar.com has included Mosrawr in its guide to ten new dirt pedals you need in 2026. The article does not gather fifty releases or build a long directory of recent pedals. It chooses only ten new overdrives, distortions, and fuzzes from across the 2025 pedal world. Mosrawr earned one of those places and was named the best fuzz for shoegaze. It appears alongside releases from Manson, DOD, Silktone, Warm Audio, ThorpyFX, and several other respected brands.
For RhPf Electronics, that makes this feature especially meaningful. We are an independent Swiss brand developing original circuits with their own purpose and personality. Seeing Mosrawr stand among only ten chosen pedals feels like an important step for everything we are building. It places our pink dinosaur beside some major names, while recognising the musical idea behind it.
Built to Survive a Wall of Sound
Guitar.com describes Mosrawr as extremely gnarly, with enough midrange strength to remain clear inside a dense mix. The article also highlights how well it works with delay, reverb, and other effects. That is exactly where Mosrawr belongs, because we designed it for shoegaze, post-rock, noise rock, and music built from overlapping textures.
In those settings, fuzz can easily become soft, distant, or buried beneath everything around it. Mosrawr takes a different approach through strong mids, raw attack, and dense sustain. Those qualities help the sound remain present as the layers grow around it. Players can place it before delays, reverbs, modulation, and increasingly complicated signal chains without losing its central voice.
Instead of disappearing into the wash, Mosrawr keeps pushing through with its own shape and energy. Guitar.com captures that idea clearly by describing towering walls of noise that still retain definition. For us, that means the musical purpose behind the circuit comes through when someone actually plays it.
From a 9/10 Review to the 2026 Guide
Guitar.com first reviewed Mosrawr in January and awarded it 9/10, together with its Recommended badge. The review praised its gnarly tones, focused midrange, and strong interaction with other pedals.
A few months later, Mosrawr returned in a much wider comparison. That matters because a full review asks whether one pedal succeeds on its own terms. A guide like this asks which releases deserve a place among the year’s most interesting new options.
Guitar.com remembered Mosrawr, returned to it, and placed it among only ten new dirt pedals. They also gave it the role we hoped it would earn from the beginning. Mosrawr was not chosen as a novelty fuzz with a pink dinosaur. It was chosen as the best fuzz for shoegaze, although the dinosaur still helps.
What This Means for RhPf Electronics
The pedal world is full of talented builders, established names, and new releases arriving every week. Earning space within that landscape takes more than producing another version of a familiar circuit. We believe original ideas still matter, and every RhPf Electronics pedal begins with a musical question.
With Mosrawr, that question concerned fuzz inside large and complicated sounds. We wanted it to stay aggressive, focused, and useful when surrounded by other effects. The gain structure, midrange response, and controls all grew from that goal.
Guitar.com’s feature shows that the answer reached beyond our own explanations. The pedal communicates its purpose through the way it sounds and behaves. For an independent brand from Switzerland, joining this group of ten is something we are genuinely proud to share.
The selection also gives Mosrawr a clear place among the new pedals shaping 2026. More importantly, it shows that a very specific idea can travel. Players looking for heavier textures can understand where Mosrawr fits and why it exists.
