The ARC Effects Crimson King! (B3 remake)

CRIMSON KING

The ARC Effects Crimson King is a modern take on the highly sought after and incredibly rare Baldwin Burns Buzzaround fuzz pedal. At it's core is 3 tested, audited, and matched germanium transistors as well as top quality axial components which allow this pedal to achieve an incredible range of vintage and modern fuzz sounds with impeccable clarity and ample volume. The range spans from "Bender" type sounds to higher gain territory with a LOT less background noise and a much higher degree of dynamic response. The Crimson King takes over where the original left off with the addition of a voltage converter that allows this pedal to be used with all standard negative ground 9v power supplies. No need for a battery or any special power supplies and this CAN be daisy chained with other standard pedals without any issues.

FEATURES


Custom 3.5" x 5" 18 Gauge Steel Enclosure With A Red Sparkle Powdercoated Finish

True Bypass Switching

Top Mounted Jacks

DC Power + Internal Battery Snap

This is the same circuit as the B3 but is now made on a PCB and has a custom made enclosure that's the same size as the BGP. You can pre-order at http://arc-effects.com/crimson-king/ with the first round shipping mid March.

I wouldn't know how but if someone knew how, I'd be absolutely honored for him to even take a glance at it!

I've got one coming to me that I'll be using on bass, and I can't wait! I was looking to pull the trigger on a Big Green Pi, but then I thought, why get a muff when you can go a little wilder?!!
