Maxon RTO700 Review

This summer, Maxon released the latest in a line of great overdrive pedals, the RTO700.

Review: TC Electronic TonePrint Pedals

Today's pedal market is flooded with limited-run pedals in handmade art-covered boxes. The majority are barely-modified clones of vintage circuitry pretty boxes prizing visual panache above sonic potential. While many mainstream effects-companies scramble to 'boutique-ify' their lines, industry-stalwart TC Electronic has dived headfirst into deep-end of the pool, reinventing guitar…Click on the title for more
