This is the most classic-sounding RAT distortion pedal. Think '60s garage rock. Think early punk. Think of the bands that revolutionized the sound of rock 'n' roll.
The secret to the You Dirty RAT's sound lies in its germanium clipping diodes. Any pedal aficionado will tell you: nothing compares to the warmth these sought-after components provide. This pedal offers the perfect compromise between distortion and fuzz, combining the characteristic bite of the RAT with the warmth of a classic fuzz.
The You Dirty RAT also offers 3 dB more compression than the original RAT. This not only adds more warmth, like a tube amp, but also increased sustain.
The You Dirty RAT features the legendary RAT filter control. Turn it clockwise to attenuate harsh high frequencies. Having trouble cutting through the mix? Turn the filter down and let your instrument's natural brightness shine through. The distortion and volume controls allow for precise gain adjustment while maintaining a consistent level for your clean tone. There's no mistaking it: the legendary RAT sound is unmistakable when the pedal is engaged. True bypass ensures no unwanted noise in your signal when it's off.
