The Beetronics OC-BS is a custom shop variant from Beetronics FX. The OC designation likely refers to the Octahive, Beetronics octave-up fuzz pedal, in a specific custom finish. The Octahive produces aggressive upper-octave fuzz tones suited for psychedelic rock, classic rock leads, and experimental sounds. Beetronics custom shop pieces are built in very small hand-finished runs with unique bee-themed artwork and boutique-grade components. The OC-BS represents a limited collectible variant of the Octahive circuit.
