The Ex TC-17 Guitar Effect

Тype: Overdrive

Overdrive simulates the natural distortion of a tube amplifier pushed to higher volume levels. It produces a warm, smooth, and dynamic tone with mild clipping that responds to playing intensity. It is used to achieve a more expressive sound in both lead and rhythm parts, especially in blues, rock, and country music.

True Bypass: Yes

It has a true bypass function, which ensures that when the effects are turned off, the signal passes directly through the unit without influence or degradation.
