ProCo RAT 2 (1986)
The Pro Co RAT is a legendary pedal effect, originally built in the 1970s when Scott Burnham decided he can produce a better distortion than the many famous units he repaired along the years.
Over the years there have been subtle changes to the RAT 's circuit which we've worked hard to showcase by presenting this 1986 RAT (the release date for these is down as 1987/8) along side both an '87 and a modern day 2022 RAT not only on Guitar but also on Bass. You can now hear for yourself if there really is any difference.
The Rat is so famous that other distortion pedals are measured against it. Hear the Rat on some of the most influential recordings from the last three decades, the list of famous guitarists is simply too long in order to list them here... but here are a few names that should be familiar to you: Kurt Cobain, David Gilmore, James Hetfield, Andy Summers, Joe Walsh and so on...
