^But why!? Binenta ko lang talaga yung Rat2 ko kasi may kailangan ako bilhin nung time na yun eh. DS2 rin gusto ko matry para sa frusciante fandom ko haha. Hirap ako magdescribe ng mga tunog nila, sa words.. Sana may shop na nakahilera lahat mga test units sasaksak ka na lang ng own guitar mo..
@sir nikko, I think kinukulang ka sa SBP kasi marketed siya as overdrive, not really "distortion" (I think SCB yung flahship distortion pedal nila). Although yes mataas ang gain na naaabot ng blues pro ko (not SBP) compared to some "overdrive" pedals like the bad monkey which for me is a very low gain od. That's why I sold mine and bought the bluespro.
I bought the SBP to replace a dying TS9(Keeley Mod) because of the switchable clipping modes of SBP and the different fancy coloration for the sound and undoubtedly with the amount of shaping you can do with the tone makes it very versatile, pero yun nga nabitin ako sa SBP "preference" wise siguro dahil na rin na bingi yung tenga ko sa TS9,But I'd take a SBP any time of the day for some arena rock tones and gritty blues,and yes you can get centaur-ish drive from SBP mas sobrang simple lang talga ang soulfood kaya yun ang naiwan sa board ko.
The RAT is an ok pedal,but if you're planning to cover a lot of ground,the RAT will be useless standing alone. It really do need a decent amp yung distortion kasi nang RAT parang sobrang lo-fi compared to recent incarnation of distortion pedals.
kung unconventional distortion hanap mo check Malekko Heavy Industries' Sloika,Catalinbread's Perseus and Octopussy, or punch your amp's speaker cone(Friendly Reminder: Please ensure that the unit is isolated from any electrical supply before doing so and wear an awesome costume just for the heck of it, this act may induce feral rage might as well put up a 300 mile radius perimeter fence; you have been warned
). hahahaha
