Tone City Summer Orange

The Tone City Summer Orange phaser is a compact, affordable pedal that delivers classic phaser tones with minimal noise. Its mini controls and wide-ranging rate knob offer flexibility, while its true-bypass footswitch ensures signal purity. Though not ideal for high-feedback settings, it excels in delivering subtle modulation, making it a strong contender for those seeking vintage sounds on a budget.

Not bad for £40.

This pedal is great for the money but it definitely isn't likely to be a permanent fixture on a board if you want clean phaser sounds.

Positives: A positive is the range of sounds you can get from it. As well as the regular phaser sound, you can turn the rate anti-clockwise and have a range of mid heavy filter tones by manipulating the depth and feedback controls. In addition when the controls are in good positions it can sound very nice.

Negatives: There are however tangible negatives. One is the frequencies the pedal seems to focus on. It is largely focused, from what I can hear on treble and high mid frequencies making it difficult to make it work with some of my pedals. In addition, the pedal is very temperamental, meaning that one sound is often achievable only once with the controls set a certain way.

Overall I would say get it if you want an introduction to phaser or something a bit gritty and characterful but if you want something reliable I would say go for a Phase 90 or an EHX Small Stone.
