The Lil' Rat by ProCo is a compact recreation of the classic RAT 2 distortion pedal, measuring only 2 inches wide. It is designed with a heavy-duty steel enclosure and features the same controls and tone as the full-sized RAT. The pedal is built with rear-mounted power and audio jacks, conserving valuable pedalboard real estate while providing full-sized RAT tones, attack, and sustain.
The Lil' Rat is known for its versatility, excelling at arena rock rhythm tones, soaring leads, and serving as a dirty channel for powerful amps with too much headroom. It can also be used as a boost for solos. The pedal features the legendary RAT filter control, allowing users to roll off brittle high-end frequencies or enhance the natural brightness of their instrument to cut through the mix.
