ProCo Rat-2 Distortion Pedal

The ProCo RAT-2 is one of the most iconic distortion pedals ever made, known for its versatility, raw character, and legendary tone. Since the late 1970s, the RAT has been a staple on pedalboards across genres—from punk and grunge to blues, classic rock, and metal.

At its core, the RAT-2 delivers a wide range of gain, from warm overdrive to thick, saturated distortion and even fuzz-like tones when pushed. Its simple 3-knob layout—Distortion, Filter, and Volume—makes it easy to dial in everything from cutting leads to massive rhythm sounds.

The signature Filter control sets the RAT apart, working in reverse to roll off high end as you turn it clockwise, giving you either biting treble presence or darker, smoother tones.

Built in a rugged steel enclosure with a true bypass footswitch, the RAT-2 is designed for life on the road. Whether you’re chasing vintage grit or aggressive modern distortion, this pedal delivers the legendary RAT sound that has stood the test of time.
