Overdrive, distortion & fuzz effect pedal
JAM PEDALS Rattler Distorsion MK2 will get you all the amazing tones of great early 80s ProCo RAT® distortion boxes and put in the time and R&D to make it more responsive to picking and fretting nuances resulting in an open, dynamic, overdriven tube-amp feel !
Its asymmetrical clipping circuit, carbon comp resistors stay the same but with the LM308 chips being long discontinued and hard to find, JAM developed a custom op-amp to ensure a dependable supply. Proprietary design, featuring discrete components, preserves the open, dynamic, and tube-amp feel that made the original Rattler so revered.
These componets are the main ingredients of a great recipe resulting in the Rattler shining through any rig, whether modern or vintage.
Enjoy fat and creamy distortion courtesy of the devious snake !
Used by Nels Cline, Bill Frisell, Kurt Rosenwinkel, Robert Randolph, Julien Kasper.
WHAT'S NEW:
1. MID BOOST:
Use the second footswitch to engage a mid boost before the Rattler, adding new dimensions to your tone. Don’t think of this as a volume boost but as a tone enhancer!
With internal controls for the boost’s level and bass content, we made sure it will deliver through any setup.
2. CLIPPING OPTIONS:
Use the onboard 2-way toggle-switch to choose between the new symmetrical and original asymmetrical clipping options for distinct feel and saturation profiles.
3. Featuring click-less footswitching for smoother operation.
4. You can also select the startup state of the RATTLER upon receiving power to be On or Off.
