The "non-tube" category is pretty large, and I'd have to be a lot fresher than I am now to figure out the differences in behavior between NPN/PNP/enh. MOSFET/dep. MOSFET/P-JFET/N-JFET/etc. My gut feeling tells me it won't work exactly the same in any of them, but I could be wrong.
Yes, they sure would - the grid would diode-clip between roughly 1.2V positive, and approximately the Zener voltage in the negative direction. The diode above the Zener isolates it from the grid during the positive signal swing; back-to-back diodes would remove this isolation.
I don't know what to tell you - I uploaded it fresh from my hard drive to the 'Manage Attachments' section just liked I did before, then cut & pasted the shortcut using the 'Insert Image' button just like I did before, and it displays properly on my screen in both the text body and thumbnail footer, just like before - I'm looking at it right now, as I type. There's not even a thumbnail?

Ray, would that work for clipping in a non tube pedal? As back to back diodes do?
And in tube environement, would back to back diodes above a zener do anything intresting?
By the way, your atachement above doesn't seem to work!
