Overdrive, distortion & fuzz effect pedal
In 1978, Pro Co's RAT was invented in Michigan, USA, an effect that marked its era and remains emblematic today. The PackRat is the ultimate tribute to 40 years of RAT evolution via 9 legendary or rare modes, all of which are entirely analog and perfectly reproduce this mode, right down to the wear and tear of the components.
The 9 available modes feature the circuits and characteristics of RATs from different periods: 1. The OG V1 (1979-83) The OG mode is a perfect reproduction of the first v1 RATs ever built. 2. White Face V3 (1984-1986) This model has a more traditional Filter setting than the Tone. 3. Turbo V5 (1989) The Turbo RAT was the first to use LEDs in the clipping section of the RAT instead of diodes, enabling more powerful distortion. 4. BRAT V6 (1997) The BRAT was an entry-level RAT with a big sound and lots of unique modifications, and is without doubt the most original variation of all. 5. Dirty V7 (2004) This model uses germanium diodes instead of silicon, for an even dirtier sound. 6. LA (1986) The LA Metal is one of the most interesting versions of the RAT circuit from this period. 7. Landgraff MO'D (1999) A certain Mr. Landgraff designed the MO'D, one of the best RAT-type distortions. 8. Caroline Wave Cannon The American manufacturer Caroline Guitar Company developed the Wave Cannon, a superb variation on the RAT circuit that PackRat had to offer! 9. JHS Mode This is the modification that JHS Pedals has been making for years, taking everything Scott loves about this circuit and adding his favorite modifications. ?
