Similarity
citedBlended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.

Description

The Electronic Audio Experiments Eldritch Blast V3 carries forward the same octave/intermodulation fuzz generator and switchable active EQ as V2, but redesigns the Chaos toggle to oscillate, producing sub-octave glitches and atonal arpeggio-like textures rather than V2's gating effect, alongside a wider range on the More (octave-feed) control and higher overall gain and output than either the original V1 or V2. It represents the most extreme, feature-complete version in the Eldritch Blast lineage for players chasing genuinely unconventional fuzz textures.

The Source Audio Kingmaker is a multi-engine fuzz pedal from Source Audio (Boston, Massachusetts), delivering three distinct fuzz characters including silicon, germanium, and octave fuzz modes with MIDI control and app programmability. The Kingmaker spans the full spectrum of vintage fuzz tones at Source Audio quality for comprehensive fuzz with modern programmability.
