Payed 120 for it with a two in one turbo/ classic mod, true bypass and a lm308 chip. Did I lose on this one? |

The keeley mod has a 3 way diode clipper, different caps, modified tone stack, blue LED, etc.
You got boned. |

Regardless, tonally a rat2 doesn't compare well to a vintage or reissue. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
