An EHX Heritage Revisited: From the Lizard Queen Spirit to the "Bass and Beyond" Version
The Lizard King continues the lineage of vintage-character octave fuzzes with a decidedly modern ergonomic approach. Directly inspired by the EHX x JHS universe unveiled in 2023, this pedal carries the sharp and responsive DNA of the "Lizard" circuit and evolves it to better serve low registers. The idea is clear: keep the wild side while offering more precise tools to maintain definition and easily integrate into a bass-oriented pedalboard... without limiting its appeal to this instrument.
Who Is It For and Why? An Octave Fuzz That Loves Lows, Groove, and Big Walls of Sound
The Lizard King targets bassists who want an expressive fuzz without sacrificing the low end: rock, stoner, grunge, garage, doom, punk, electro-rock... It also suits guitarists seeking a thicker octave fuzz capable of shifting from vintage grit to almost synthetic textures. In the studio, its Blend helps keep a clear and solid take. Live, it allows you to "fill" the space with authority while remaining controllable with a simple hand gesture.
