Surfy Industries is a boutique effects manufacturer that builds analog guitar pedals and outboard effects inspired by vintage surf-era equipment. The company grew out of founder Björn Isheden's DIY replica of the Fender 6G15 outboard reverb — a JFET-based design shared on surf music communities that developed a following and became the SurfyBear. The project evolved into a small-scale manufacturer with roots in Sweden and operations in Italy and the United States.

The SurfyBear line remains the brand's signature, spanning the SurfyBear Classic, Metal, Compact Deluxe, and Studio variants, along with the SurfyPan tank accessory. Beyond reverb, the catalog includes the SurfyTrem and SurfyTrem Deluxe tremolos, the SurfyVibe, the SurfyFuzz, the Blossom Point, and the SurfyMan, alongside utility products like the SurfyPower supply, StereoMaker, SurfySpider, and SurfyDrip footswitch.

The company positions itself around analog circuitry rather than digital emulation, aiming to reproduce the character and imperfections of the original tube-driven surf and vintage Fender-era tones. Its niche audience centers on surf, rockabilly, and vintage-tone players seeking an alternative to spring-reverb tanks and digital reverb units.

Surfy Industries has 12 products cataloged on Equipboard, including Reverb Effects Pedals, Tremolo Effects Pedals, and Vibrato Effects Pedals. Their gear is featured by 6 artists, with the strongest followings in Rock, Folk, World, & Country, and Blues. Notable users include Noel Gallagher, Mason Stoops, and Eric Cannata.
