New EHX Octave Fuzz Pedal

US Electro-Harmonix releases the Lizard Queen designed by JHS's Josh Scott      12/04/23

Electro-Harmonix has released a new pedal - the Lizard Queen. This is what they have to say about it...

After a year of waiting, the Lizard Queen exists! First featured in JHS Pedals' "Making a Vintage Electro-Harmonix Pedal!" episode of the JHS Show, the Lizard Queen is a love letter to vintage Electro-Harmonix by way of a pedal designed by Josh Scott to look and feel like a missing link from EHX's past. The pedal is a unique octave fuzz design that is gained out to the max with an adjustable Octave blend and Balance control for subtle tone shaping. The nano-sized pedal is the vintage EHX octave fuzz that never was but now is!

Originally designed by Josh Scott of JHS Pedals and graphic designer, Daniel Danger as a homage to Electro-Harmonix in what Josh and Daniel consider the company's design heyday of the 1970s, the EHX Lizard Queen Octave Fuzz is a nano-sized version of the pedal brought to life by the engineers at Electro-Harmonix that has all of the tones and vibes of the original circuit design by Josh. The tone is inspired by EHX's fuzz pedigree with a unique analog octave up circuit that has all the vibe of the original design first featured on the JHS Show in 2022. This creates a completely new and unique EHX fuzz sound we've never heard before. To further tell the tale, the pedal is adorned with vintage EHX-inspired graphics designed by Daniel.

Housed in EHX's Nano-sized chassis, the EHX Lizard Queen is a fixed gain fuzz pedal which features Volume, Octave, and Balance knobs. Volume controls the overall output volume level. The Octave control adjusts the level of the octave-up signal from zero to full octave chaos. Perfect for dialing in a crushing rhythm sound or a chimey, clanging lead sound. The Balance knob sets the tone balance between the smoother Shadow setting and the raspy, biting Sun setting. The effect of the Balance control is especially apparent with the octave set high.

Features:

  • Unique transistor-based octave fuzz distortion circuit designed by Josh Scott
  • Blendable Octave to dial in the analog octave chaos
  • Balance control adjusts between smooth sustaining tones and raspy fuzz tones
  • 1970s Electro-Harmonix graphic designed by Daniel Danger
  • True Bypass
  • 9V Battery included (9V adapter optional)

Pricing and Availability:
$99
