Daredevil Pedals "The Chicago Rat" Fuzz / Distortion
Description: Up for sale is a Daredevil Pedals "The Chicago Rat" distortion and fuzz pedal. Designed in true collaboration with musician Rob Scallon, it is important to note: this is not a standard Rat circuit! It is a completely original 2-stage op-amp gain pedal built in Chicago, designed to deliver everything from hot-rodded old-school distortion to heavily gated, sputtering vintage fuzz in one enclosure.
Condition: Used and in excellent condition. There are only slight cosmetic blemishes on the front of the enclosure; otherwise, the pedal looks brand new. Please see the photos for complete details on the physical condition. The original box is included.
Key Features:
-
Normal Mode (Distortion): Delivers a hot-rodded, crunchy high-gain distortion with massive output. The "Bleed" starve control is bypassed in this setting.
-
Rabid Mode (Fuzz): An aggressive, over-clipped fuzz setting that adds heavy gain and tons of clipping.
-
Bleed Control: A variable voltage starve knob—active only in Rabid mode—that lets you dial in the gating, taking the tone all the way to sputtering filth as you turn it clockwise.
-
Build Quality: Hand-built in Chicago by Daredevil HQ using through-hole components.
-
Hardware: Features true bypass switching and a standard external 9V DC power supply jack. 9V DC power supply not included.
