The original 1980’s PT-9 Phaser was a great pedal, but a little known fact is that Maxon also offered a different version of that model that was only sold in Japan under the Maxon brand – dubbed the PT-9 Pro, this silver-boxed rarity featured optical circuitry for a lush, drippy, 3D phasing effect similar to vintage units such as the Mu-Tron Phaser II and the Shin-Ei Uni-Vibe.

The PT-9 Pro+ Phaser takes this ultra-rare version of the PT-9 and adds a voltage-doubling IC to offer massive headroom and an improved frequency response, yielding fat, full-bodied phasing with incredible clarity and transparency.

Looking at the OD-9’s circuit, you’ll realize that this is not some redesign being cleverly marketed as a reissue – this is THE original OD-9 (TS-9) circuit, yet with the addition of true bypass switching.  Even the PC board is the same one that Maxon’s been using for the past 30+ years, complete with empty slots where parts for the FET switching circuit have been left out!

Like the original, the current production OD-9 features the NJM (JRC) 4558D Op Amp – an essential component for authentic “TS” tone.  The NJM is smoother sounding and less compressed than other Op Amps, offering superior sound quality with low noise.

OD-9 Overdrive

The Maxon ST-9 Pro+ Super Tube Pedal stakes a big claim for being one of the most sonically customisable overdrive pedals ever invented. The secret behind this incredible functionality and tone lies in the design which was loosely based on the late 70s OD-808, just with some major upgrades.

The Mid Enhance control lets you vary the amount of iconic mid-boost that Maxon overdrives provide, while the Low Boost switch allows a rumbling low-end response with increased saturation thanks to an alternate set of clipping diodes. Add to this, the pedal can operate at either 9V or 18; run at 9V for the classic 808 sound or switch to 18V for increased headroom, improved dynamics, and thicker, chunkier overdriven textures.

ST-9 Pro+ Super Tube

The CP-9 Pro+ is that rarity of rarities – a compressor with tons of squash that does not color your guitar tone or create excessive noise.

The RTO is an amazingly amp-like overdrive. While many companies claim to offer “amp in a box” pedals, the RTO is in actuality a tube preamp circuit in a stand-alone stompbox format.

The RTO700 has all the tone and responsiveness of the best boutique tube amps.  From bluesy overdrives to the elusive “Brown Sound” and beyond, all can be easily achieved with any amp at any volume when using the RTO.
