Members AaronF Posted May 27, 2006 Members Share Posted May 27, 2006 I need a new pedal for gain. I was using a DS-1 with my old amp which worked great, but now with my Mesa, it just ain't cuttin it. I'm using a strat thru a DC-5 and I'm looking for a crunchy-glassy Gilmour sound, and a real smooth sound. Which of these two pedals do you think is the most versatile/ will fit my needs best? Also, are the RAT 2 pedals as good as the originals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members murch33 Posted May 27, 2006 Members Share Posted May 27, 2006 I don't think of "smooth" when someone mentions RAT's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members L6Sguy Posted May 28, 2006 Members Share Posted May 28, 2006 when used with the drive way down low, and the level set 2pm-ish, the Rat can deliver some very, very shmoov tones. and its far more versatile than the bd, although what it offers may not be up yer alley.
