Members rinkrat6821 Posted April 23, 2008 Members Share Posted April 23, 2008 The search is over! It's missing the battery cover but who cares...Its pretty dinged up looking. Gnarley! Can't be beat for $65... I'm stoked. Only a few pieces left for the current puzzle...I'll let you all know how I like it when It arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like the emoticon is being added to the end of it causing an error msg. But I listened to your songs on MySpace-- cool stuff, man. Not the kind of music I usually listen to, but I liked it.

Members booher Posted April 23, 2008 Members Share Posted April 23, 2008 I've got a small box and big box rat right now. both are 80s versions, not RII or the Vintage Reissue. I like the small one better for some reason. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Philly Fuzz Posted April 23, 2008 Members Share Posted April 23, 2008 Funny story (and by funny I mean it shows my stupidity). Had a Vintage RAT and an American Telecaster, both great, both beautiful. However, I wasn't playing guitar very much partly due to graduate school and was low on cash so sold my Tele and my RAT. A year later I was jonesing to play again and had to go out and buy another guitar and search eBay to find another Vintage RAT which were discontinued in the interim. (I've done this kind of thing numerous times... ).Moral of the story: don't sell your RATs. Here it is: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jbrazz Posted April 23, 2008 Members Share Posted April 23, 2008 the originals dont have those white dots right? but its still late 80's early 90's lm308, i think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members concretph Posted April 28, 2008 Members Share Posted April 28, 2008 Yeah i love my rat.I did some tweaking and my rat is starting to really shine through. Great pedal.I can't wait to compare it to the Shredmaster. I used both in my rig for a few years, totally different animals but they worked together. My late 80's small box is fuzzy and bright while the SM (contour & treble at 5oclock) is broad and warm. I tried different chains but the most useful for me was RAT before the SM. The overdrive contour on the SM didn't seem to effect the RAT as much as the RAT did to the SM.. At least that's how I dialed them into my 65 Twin RI. The SM sounded a bit better to me when I was playing through a SF Vibrolux, now I cant seem to get enough treble out of it and I have been looking for other overdrives to replace it (so far, a keeley mod TS9 is doing ok).. but I don't want to mod it, for sentimental reasons. Versatile pedals, good luck with em Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
