Ein Distortion-Pedal, das neun legendäre RAT-Schaltungsvariationen in einem Gehäuse vereint und einen umfassenden Überblick über die Geschichte eines der ikonischsten Distortion-Pedale aller Zeiten bietet.
The JHS PackRat is a masterclass in analog circuit replication, providing a definitive timeline of the ProCo RAT's evolution. Rather than relying on digital modeling, JHS utilizes a complex switching system to swap actual components, ensuring each of the nine modes retains the authentic grit, sag, and harmonic complexity of the original hardware.
The sonic range is staggering. The 'OG' mode captures that classic mid-forward bark and fuzzy decay, while the 'Turbo' mode offers the massive headroom and LED clipping favored by punk and indie players. For those seeking modern refinements, the 'Landgraff MO'D' mode provides a boutique, hi-fi take on the circuit that feels significantly more touch-responsive than its vintage counterparts. The 'Caroline' mode is a standout, offering a unique gain structure that pushes into heavy, textured territory perfect for shoegaze.
Ergonomically, the pedal is straightforward, though the rotary switch requires a firm hand. While the price point sits at the higher end of the distortion market, the value is undeniable when considering the cost of sourcing even two of these vintage units. The lack of presets is a minor workflow hurdle when switching between radically different clipping styles, but for the session guitarist or RAT purist, this is the most comprehensive dirt box on the market.
