The Maxon RTO700 Tube Overdrive Pedal has no clipping diodes in the signal path - All distortion comes directly from the dual triode preamp tube and hi-gain amp circuit.  This design makes the RTO the best tube overdrive pedal for use with clean and semi-clean amps to effectively add a 2nd or 3rd channel of pure tube tone to your rig.  

Every aspect of the Maxon RTO700 has been re-thought and redesigned to provide a lifetime of trouble-free performance.  As soon as power is applied to the pedal, an In-Rush Current control begins heating the tube at a very low voltage (much like a tube amp standby switch) to dramatically extend tube life.  When the pedal is engaged, a charge pump circuit bumps incoming voltage to feed the tube with 12.6 VDC.

Unlike other tube overdrive pedals, the RTO700 places the tube AFTER the OD/Distortion circuits, making it the best tube overdrive pedal to recreate an authentic tube-amp tone.
