NGB (new gear build): RAT

Post by Neiloler » Tue Sep 14, 2010 7:35 am

I've been missing a RAT pedal, so I got a kit a while back, and took my time finishing it. I put the finishing touches on it tonight.

Enjoy this pic:

Love it!!!! Tell us how it sounds as compared to the production Rat pedal (I'm a Rat lover from way back).

Thanks guys! This was another experiment in applying decals for graphics, I'm trying to sharpen my skills.

Aslan, I sadly don't have a vintage rat, but I love the sound of this one, able to do light grungy tones to almost a fuzz/muff sound, all while being very much its own tone to the distortion.

It has a OP108 or something like that, it's a work-a-like. I need to try the LM308 in it just for fun, I just haven't bought the chip yet. It sounds pretty darn as is!

Nice work! That one should be called the Rat Bastard if the name hasn't been taken yet.
