The Electro Harmonix Lizard King Bass Octave Fuzz is a masterful fusion of classic vibe and modern control, built specifically for bassists seeking to elevate their sound. This pedal features an advanced octave fuzz circuit, derived from the popular Lizard Queen, but with enhancements that make it perfect for handling low frequencies without losing clarity. With the inclusion of a unique Blend knob, players can dial in the perfect mix of clean and distorted tones, ensuring the fundamental bass tone always punches through.
The addition of the Sun/Shadow switch provides an extra layer of tonal flexibility, allowing musicians to shift the pedal’s character between bright, midrange-heavy fuzz and a tighter, more reserved sound. Coupled with user-friendly controls for volume, octave, and tone, the Lizard King offers unparalleled control over sound shaping. This true bypass pedal, powered by a standard 9V battery or adapter, ensures that your signal remains pristine and unaffected when the pedal is disengaged.
Optimised for bass
The Lizard King Octave Fuzz has been specifically tailored for bass guitarists, delivering robust octave effects without compromising the integrity of the low-end. This pedal preserves the natural sound of your bass, even with significant fuzz, ensuring your fundamental tones always cut through the mix. The design focuses on maintaining clarity and depth, proving ideal for bassists who demand nuanced sonic capabilities.
Dynamic responsiveness
This pedal stands out for its dynamic response to varying instrument volumes. Lowering your instrument's volume produces a mild, clear fuzz, perfect for rhythm sections or subtle enhancements. Cranking the volume up transforms the effect, pushing the gain higher for aggressive, attention-grabbing riffs and solos. This sensitivity allows musicians to adapt their tone on the fly, simply by adjusting their playing intensity.
Blend knob innovation
The innovative Blend knob is a game-changer, providing seamless integration of clean and fuzz tones. This feature allows you to set the exact mix between your untouched bass tone and the pedal’s rich, harmonic fuzz. It offers precision control over your sound, enabling you to dial in anything from a subtle enhancement to a full, powerful fuzz, all while retaining your instrument’s core character.
Sun/Shadow tone switch
The Sun/Shadow toggle adds a layer of versatility to the Lizard King, enabling players to sculpt their sound even further. In Sun mode, the fuzz effect is enriched with a more pronounced midrange, ideal for standing out in a mix. Switching to Shadow mode tightens the fuzz tone for a more refined sound while leaving the clean channel untouched. This dual-mode setting allows for quick adjustments during performances, catering to different musical styles and settings.
