The TC Electronic PolyTune 3 is an ultra-compact tuner pedal that combines fast operation with exceptional accuracy for guitar and bass. Its innovative polyphonic technology lets you check the tuning of every string with a single strum while chromatic and ultra-precise strobe modes provide detailed single-string tuning when required. An integrated all-analogue BONAFIDE Buffer helps preserve your tone across long cable runs and complex pedalboards with switchable true bypass and buffered bypass modes to suit your setup. The bright adaptive LED display automatically adjusts to ambient light for clear visibility in any environment. Complete with support for Drop D alternate tunings capo modes silent tuning and Always On operation the PolyTune 3 is an essential pedal for reliable tuning on stage in the studio or at home.

Founded in Denmark in 1976 by brothers Kim and John Rishoj, TC Electronic first made its mark with the Stereo Chorus Flanger (SCF), prized for its transparent modulation. The company later developed the TC 2290 digital delay, a landmark studio processor, and extended its guitar range with compact effects, loopers and TonePrint-enabled pedals. JustPedals listings include the MojoMojo overdrive, Dark Matter distortion, Spark Booster, Ditto X2 looper and Flashback Triple Delay. TC Electronic now covers guitar, bass and voice products, so compare the exact model’s stereo routing, presets and control method.

Tuner Pedals
A tuner pedal measures the input frequency and shows whether the played note is sharp, flat or in tune. Detection speed, display resolution and note range affect accuracy, especially for low tunings and extended-range instruments. Buffered or true-bypass switching changes the signal path, while mute, strobe display, reference-pitch calibration and alternate-tuning modes shape operation.
Tags
Analogue
The signal is shaped by continuously varying electronic circuitry rather than being converted into a digital effect algorithm. Component choice, operating voltage and circuit tolerances influence headroom, noise, clipping texture and the small variations in response between designs.
Bass
Voiced or equipped to retain low-frequency fundamentals and the higher headroom of a bass signal. Clean blends, crossovers and bass-specific filter ranges can preserve weight and articulation while the effected portion adds harmonics, movement or ambience.
Buffered Bypass
Keeps an active buffer in the signal path when the effect is bypassed. The buffer converts a high-impedance input to a lower-impedance output, helping long cables and multiple pedals retain level and high frequencies, although its headroom and noise remain part of the path.
True Bypass
Connects input directly to output through mechanical or relay switching when the effect is off, removing the active circuit from the audio path. It avoids buffer colour but leaves cable capacitance and switching design to influence high-frequency loss and possible switching noise.
