Tone City Angel Wing Chorus TC-T11

Tone City · pedal

The Tone City Angel Wing TC-T11 is an analog chorus pedal built around a bucket-brigade-device chip, modeled after the smooth, lush character of a legendary blue chorus pedal from the 1980s. It delivers warm, luscious chorus tones comparable to classics like the EHX Small Clone, but at a significantly more accessible price point, in a compact mini pedal format. It's aimed at players wanting genuine analog BBD-chip chorus warmth rather than a digital chorus algorithm, prioritizing that specific vintage-inspired lushness over deep modern parameter control.
