Tone City Fuxx Fuzz TC-T10

Tone City · pedal

The Tone City TC-T0 Fuxx Fuzz combines fuzz, distortion, and a switchable upper-octave effect in one compact mini pedal, aimed at delivering musical, easy-to-use tones across a range of styles rather than a single narrow fuzz voicing. Two distinct fuzz modes plus a responsive tone control give it a wide range from tame, usable grit to genuinely wild, saturated fuzz. The octave effect can be toggled on or off independently, adding harmonic complexity when engaged without forcing players to commit to it as a fixed part of the pedal's character.
