I've seen a lot of distortion pedals. There must be a million of them. What does the RAT distortion pedal have to offer that the other devices don't? (1) Better sound (2) More controllability (3) True bypass switch (4) Micro power operation (5) Improved reliability. Why does the RAT distortion pedal sound better? Because it was carefully designed to produce "musical" distortion. Most conventional distortion pedals clip the signal in a totally haphazard way, producing a lot of extremely "brittle" sounding high-order odd harmonics that result in that tinny "fuzztone buzz". The RAT pedal has specially contoured EQ circuitry that alters the frequency response as the distortion is increased to simulate the smooth sustain of an overdriven tube amp like a Marshall or a Fender Twin. This "sweet" but raunchy sound is what we refer to as "musical" distortion, because it enriches the signal in a musically desirable way.

This is why it has been a main ingredient in the post punk/indie rock movement of the past twenty years.

You Dirty RATLet's get right to the point. Did most of the clothes in your closet hit the racks before the Reagan administration?

Juggernaut Bass RAT
Are you a bassist who won't be relegated to the shadows? Can you do as much with four strings as your bandmates achieve with six? The Juggernaut distortion pedal is the first RAT built for the bass clef. Take the low frequencies from the back of the mix to the front of the stage! This is an updated version of the infamous Juggernaut, which was available from 1979 to 1984 as a custom order-only product. Back by popular demand, that classic design has been modified and improved upon to become the ultimate bass effects pedal. What sets the Juggernaut apart from other bass distortion pedals? Most of these units are just repackaged guitar pedals. Try one and listen to the bottom end disappear. The Juggernaut was designed from the bottom up for the bass guitar, allowing the clarity of the instrument to shine through. However, the Juggernaut is not just a distortion pedal. In addition to the dirt it provides, its external effects loop makes the Juggernaut the control center for all of your effects. The left side of the Juggernaut acts as a typical RAT pedal. The Amount and Volume controls dial in the perfect amount of gain while keeping the level consistent with your clean tone. The Tone control is a low-pass filter, allowing more low-end into the signal. On the right, the Mix controls the ratio of clean to effected signal, while the Master Volume adjusts the output level of the entire unit. The Juggernaut also features a true bypass Master On/Off footswitch, which guarantees that no extra noise will creep into your signal when the unit is turned off. All RAT pedals feature: * 100% analog signal path * Pro Co's classic, virtually indestructible steel enclosure * Heavy-duty, industrial footswitches, knobs, and jacks * On/Off LED indicator * Sloped face for easy stomping * Glow in the dark graphics * Military-spec glass-epoxy circuit board * AC jack (RPS-1 power supply sold separately) * "No tools required" battery compartment (9 volt not included) * Five year limited warranty
