From Queen to King - there's another Electro-Harmonix royal vying for the crown of octave distortion

- Trevor Curwen

Last year Electro-Harmonix debuted the Lizard Queen octave fuzz pedal, which was based on an imagined vintage EHX design. Since the brand never made an octave fuzz back in the day, it got together with Josh Scott of JHS Pedals and came up with the sort of pedal that Electro-Harmonix could have made in the 1970s - but didn't. Moving on a year or so, the company has added another octave fuzz to its roster with the Lizard King, which starts with the circuitry from the Lizard Queen but adds new twists, optimising it for bass and, in doing so, building in extra flexibility that six-stringers may also find useful.
