Animals Pedal introduces an incredible distortion pedal crafted by the renowned Wren and Cuff design team! This distortion tone is perfect for rock guitar and has become essential for many guitarists across various heavier music styles.
Distortion pedals first emerged in the late 1970s and gained widespread popularity in the early 1980s. Our Tioga Road Cycling Distortion captures this iconic distortion sound, along with several other tonal variations from that time and beyond.
Our updated design positions the footswitch conveniently on the front right side for easy access, and replacing the 9v battery is a breeze. As always, our stunning artwork takes center stage, complemented by Animals Pedal's expert craftsmanship and high-quality components. We’ve made enhancements to the circuit that have been meticulously refined and broadened, allowing the TRCD to pair well with a wider range of guitars and amplifiers.
Wren and Cuff is a globally recognized brand and design team from the USA, known for creating some of the most sought-after boutique pedals. With this pedal, they transport you back to 1984, channeling the sound of the original "big box" distortion models. But the Tioga Road Distortion offers more than just retro vibes.

Each setting adds a unique texture to your sound, emphasizing rich low mids and broad frequency response.
