Wampler Ratsbane Distortion Effects Pedal – Gray, High-Gain Guitar Pedal

The Wampler Ratsbane Distortion Effects Pedal in Gray is a versatile, high-gain distortion pedal based on a legendary 1980s circuit. It offers multiple gain stages, from subtle overdrive to extreme fuzz tones, making it a single-pedal solution for a variety of musical needs. The pedal features a dynamic range and sonic force characteristic of a true benchmark amongst guitarists. The Distortion control allows for a range from a deep gain booster to rich, harmonic overdrive. The Filter control adjusts high-end roll-off, enabling a precise, high-frequency attack or a warm, buttery tone. Two innovative switches – Gain and Voice – enhance the pedal’s flexibility. The Gain switch provides three distinct gain settings, including two turbocharged options, while the Voice switch alters compression and clipping for a more manageable, modern high-gain distortion. Suitable for blues, rock, and metal, the Ratsbane is designed to be a standalone distortion solution. Controls include Distortion, Volume, Filter, Gain Switch, and Voice Switch. Powered by a 9V or 18V DC source, it’s optimized for 9V operation. Key features include true bypass, high-grade components, and U.S.A. manufacturing.
