Aggressive distortion and dynamic responsiveness — a refined take on the classic “Rat” formula, built for players who demand clarity, flexibility and attitude.

Rattler MKII brings the iconic distortion character of early‑80s rat‑style pedals into a modern, pedalboard‑ready package — with updated circuitry and enhanced tonal control. Whether you want gritty vintage‑style distortion, saturated rock crunch, or a tight modern drive, this pedal delivers with nuance and punch.

🎸 What It Does

• Classic distortion with attitude: The asymmetric clipping circuit (and optional symmetrical clipping) gives you that crunchy, harmonically rich distortion — from biting edge to full saturation.
• Switchable clipping modes: Toggle between original asymmetric clipping for classic grit or symmetrical clipping for smoother, tighter distortion.
• Mid‑boost footswitch: An onboard footswitch lets you engage a mid‑boost before the distortion for extra presence, punch and sustain — ideal for solos or heavier passages.
• Tone shaping & control: Dedicated Gain, Tone and Level knobs give you control over drive texture, brightness, and output volume — enabling everything from subtle overdrive to high‑gain distortion.
• Hand‑crafted build & pedalboard‑friendly: True bypass switching, standard 9 V DC power, robust enclosure and reliable components — built with touring and pedalboard use in mind.

✅ Ideal For

• Players chasing classic “Rat‑style” distortion with modern flexibility.
• Guitarists who want a distortion pedal that handles everything from classic rock crunch to saturated leads.
• Musicians needing a distortion with additional control — clipping options and mid‑boost — for more tonal variety on one pedalboard.
• Those wanting a reliable, handmade distortion pedal with boutique‑level build quality.
