In a photograph taken at a show at the Southern in Charlottesville, VA, Jon Spencer can be seen using a TC Electronic PolyTune as a tuner and mute. The pedal is positioned in the "V" between his amps, and he also has his usual Way Huge Conquistador and Fuzz Face pedals in front of him. This setup was documented in an image available on Equipboard.
