JAM Pedals Rattler Bass Pedal

The Rattler Bass delivers fat, creamy bass distortion with the headroom, articulation and low-end authority modern players need. A custom discrete-component op-amp preserves the open, dynamic feel of the original LM308-based circuit, while clean blending and a second gain stage keep every note defined. Use the Mix control to restore exactly as much dry signal as the part requires, from full distortion to parallel grit with a solid fundamental. The dedicated HIGH GAIN footswitch adds instant saturation for heavier sections and lead moments. Clickless switching and programmable startup states make the Rattler Bass as stage-friendly as it is expressive.

FEATURES

• Custom discrete op-amp
  - A proprietary discrete-component design preserves the open, dynamic and tube-amp-like response associated with the discontinued LM308.
  
  
• Clean blend
  - Mix sets the ratio of clean and distorted signals, retaining low-end impact and note definition at heavier
  gain settings.
  
  
• Footswitchable high gain
  - The left footswitch activates a higher-gain stage for instant bursts of added saturation.
  
  
• Controls and startup
  - Level sets output, Gain controls saturation, Tone shapes the response and Mix blends clean and distorted signals.
  - Effect and high-gain startup states can be saved independently by reconnecting power while holding the corresponding footswitch.
