Members surfcat Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 I have a Rat II-pre '03 with the lm308n chip. I use it with my amp's overdrive for more gain/grit. It's got more grit/fuzziness than my Direct Drive, but I use the DD more for Marshally tones and the Rat for ruder sounds-can work as a fuzz for Hendrix type stuff-doesn't mud out like a germ fuzz face can-it's different but can cover some of the same ground.

Members only_shallow Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 Can a Turbo Rat have the RAT2 sound though? I'd like a TR but I also like Graham Coxons sound on Song 2 and that was from a RAT2. But can I get this sound with a TR? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members sa1126 Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 i have a rat 2. i run the distortion at 1 o'clock, filter at 3 o'clock, and volume at 3 o'clock. i also have a brat. you can almost get the identical tone using the reverse settings on the tone and distortion knobs. i don;t think it would stand up to the abuse i would put it through since it only has a plastic switch.

Members theweight Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 I prefer the big box Vintage Rat reissue over the others, but I'll bet that early Rat 2 with the lm308 chip sounds pretty sweet. I had a Deucetone for awhile and it was really great. I only sold it because I just got an FKR. Someone over at TGP is selling a Keeley modified vintage Rat 2 for $120 right now. If I wasn't set with that tone I'd be all over it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members surfcat Posted March 20, 2007 Members Share Posted March 20, 2007 I have a question about the switch on mine-it's the pre-'03 Rat II like I said earlier, but someone said those aren't true bypass because of the led-it doesn't click like mechanical tb switches-it's more electronic, but when I take out the battery it still works when bypassed. When I switch it on there's no signal. So wouldn't that make it true bypass? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
