This one is kind of obvious for the "limited" quality of this pedal.

It is a low-voltage tube circuit. There is no voltage boost circuit in sight. It uses a 6N21B sub-mini tube.
From what I can see it looks like a zendrive with a tube. There are even 2 JFETs? next to an 8-pin IC that is probably an OPamp, resembles a Zendrive clipping.
Other than that, the single gain stage used as a boost.

I am more interested in seeing how the tube is used as a clipper. It is said to be used as a cold clipping tube in a circuit.

It uses a 2N16 sub-mini tube.

6N16?

There's similar project on FSB forum.

I already edited the post. Wrote the wrong type at first. It is 6N21B. Visible in the gut shot.

Always down with anything involving a tube. Drunk Beaver has released a couple of these miniature tube pedals in limited releases. I don’t know when he releases these…guess I’m not in the in crowd like Guitar pedal X is lol

I can't quite figure out guitarpedalx. Half of his "reviews" are just commentary on feature sets and taking ad copy at its word without actually using the pedal. The rest is like coin collector type building a collection and arbitrarily categorizing it by color and genre.

@therhodeo It is a strange site indeed. Only guess I have is the guy started off with good intention being a pedal collector and the site ended up being noticed causing vendors to start sending him pedals for positive reviews. There’s a good bit of misinformation on there as well…must be what he actually wrote lol. Nevertheless it appears to have sponsors now and the site has updated. I’ll admit it is a location to go to see what’s new along with videos in one location. So he has that’s going for him lol. Along with a pedalboard of around 100 pedals most of which he he claims to use once or twice a set.
