RE: King crimson stuff
Red? Hmm!, the one I had in the 70's was blue (maybe there was another
version or it was customized) but, I did love that thing (it still had a
slightly ugly fuzz sound) the octave thing was cool (wish I still had it
$$$).
Do you think that was what he was using to get those sounds on Lone Rhino
and/or Twang Bar King? I ain't much for persuing those trivia details ;D
Heres a pic the same as the one I had

I might have to think about duplicating this on one of my DSP boxes cause
it
is cool sounding.
Some circuits that supposedly replicate it

works like the roger mayer 'octavia'-fuzz plus octave. and its red and
fuzzy
