Electro-Harmonix Lizard Queen User manual

POWER SUPPY REQUIREMENTS:
Voltage: 9VDC Current: 5mA Polarity: Center-Negative Battery: 9V
This device may be powered with an Electro-Harmonix 9.6DC-200, MOP-D10, or S8 power supply. Use of the
wrong adapter or a plug with the wrong polarity may damage the device and void the warranty. Do not exceed
12VDC on the power plug. Power supplies rated for less than 10mA can cause the device to act unreliably.
Operating Instructions
Connect your guitar to the INPUT jack on the Lizard Queen and the
AMP jack to your amp’s input. Power your Lizard Queen by 9V battery
or external power supply. Press the footswitch to ensure the STATUS
LED is lit. Your Lizard Queen is now ready to go.
The Lizard Queen is a xed-gain fuzz which means you can adjust the
intensity of the fuzz using your guitar’s volume knob.
Congratulations on your purchase of the EHX Lizard Queen Octave
Fuzz pedal. The Lizard Queen was originally designed by Josh Scott
and Daniel Danger as a tribute to the sound and look of iconic
Electro-Harmonix pedals from the 70s and 80s. Now, in partnership
with JHS Pedals, Electro-Harmonix brings you the Lizard Queen’s
biting, octave-tinged fuzz in a compact, road-worthy enclosure.

Controls and Connections
1. OCTAVE Knob Controls the intensity of the octave-up effect. Turn
clockwise for more octave.
2. BALANCE Knob Adjusts the balance between the SHADOW and SUN
tones. SHADOW is a classic dark, yet smooth, sustaining fuzz. SUN is
a brighter, raspy biting fuzz. The BALANCE knob is most effective with
higher OCTAVE settings.
3. VOLUME Knob Sets the output level of the Lizard Queen.

4. FOOTSWITCH and STATUS LED The footswitch engages or bypasses
the effect. The Status LED lights when the effect is engaged. The LED
is off in bypass mode. The Lizard Queen employs True Bypass.
5. INPUT Jack Audio input to the Lizard Queen.
6. AMP Jack Audio output from the Lizard Queen. In bypass mode,
the AMP jack is directly connected to the INPUT jack.
7. 9V Power Jack An optional 9VDC, center-negative power supply can
be connected to the power jack to provide power without a battery.
The Lizard Queen requires 5mA at 9VDC on a center-negative plug.
Do not exceed 12VDC at the power jack.
When using a 9V battery, plugging into the INPUT jack activates power.
The input cable should be removed when the unit is not in use to
avoid running down the battery.
To change the 9-volt battery, you must remove the 4 screws on the
bottom of the Lizard Queen. Once the screws are removed, you can
take off the bottom plate and change the battery. Please do not touch
the circuit board while the bottom plate is off or you risk damaging
a component.
