I love how the great pedal makers are also just super great people. Keeley, Josh from JHS and Brian are just a few examples but all super friendly and knowledgeable and they all advertise all kinds of pedals, not just their own. Just ordered my first two wampler pedals, a tumnus deluxe and a ratsbane, replacing a sugar drive and a bd2.
I watched the Ratsbane announcement a few minutes after it posted, hit pause, found it on Sweetwater, ordered it, it arrived yesterday and now it is in my sweaty hands, most excellent!
Brian, I'm from Brazil, I own one of your pedals and I would like to say that you have the best pedals I've ever played. Thank you for your fabulous work.
So glad he’s on TH-cam. Brian seems like such a great dude that loves his craft and enjoys showing his methods. Super helpful, super interesting and tons of fun to watch! Thank you kind sir.
I just watched Pete Thorn's review of this pedal. He did a great job at showing how many different ways you can use this pedal, even on bass guitar! This pedal is fantastic! Seriously! You can do so much with it and it will sound great on any type of amp, whether you have a "bright" amp or a "warmer" amp.
I just ordered mine last night! It will be my first Wampler pedal. I made a joke on FB about Brian and he responded with a great sense of humor. A true gentleman, and cool guy. I'm so excited for this. I've been thinking about getting a rat for a while. I'm actually from Kalamazoo and I always wondered what was happening at that ProCo place and why all those metal heads were always outside smoking.
This pedal honestly sounds amazing. I would kill to have such a flexible rat sounding effect. Congratulations Brian. You continue to amaze us with your ability to grace the market with your talent. Thank you and rock on
Safe to say this will officially bump my Mooer Black Secret off the board. Better build quality and MUCHO versatility. I find every tone you pulled up to be quite gig worthy. Bravo Brian!!
The Black Secret has opened my eyes to Rat-style pedals! It's my favourite distortion pedal at the moment and I'm looking for an upgrade regarding build-quality. Because the sound from the Mooer is great actually!
Like it says on the Tumnus which I love, it's available! Which is way better and easier than chasing down vintage units. Although I'm not sure about the Rat availability.
Brian!!! You.. are.. da.... MAN!! I play guitar with Tommy Emmanuel and many other artists down here in Australia, and not only have I destroyed all my old Rats (I even have one of the original big bodied ones) from many many years of international touring, but to have YOUR mind do a re-creation is a dream come true. And may i say, while i'm at it here.. thank you so much for being a pedal designer that isn't 'anonymous', and that you do your own wonderful youtube videos and 'get amongst the people', so to speak. Its really awesome. This will be a wonderful addition to my other Wampler pedals. With great gratitude, Simon Hosford.
Thanks man... your pedals are one of the very few brands I trust out the gate. I know that ANY Wampler pedal I buy will be great and will last. I've never been let down by a Wampler pedal! This one's on the list 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Ok, just ordered one. Not only did you nail what I would tweak on a Rat, you thoughtfully included the op-amp socket!! Thank you!! I have used Rats for 35years and the LM308N chip does make a difference on a Rat. That voice switch is a godsend. Rats can tend to get a bit boomy. Get on a wooden stage and it can be ridiculous. Rolling off some lows while bumping 800hz-4khz is PERFECT! Thanks!!! BTW, this is my first Wampler pedal.
Brian, I just wanted to say I have all the respect in the world for you because you never do a straight up copy of anything. It always has your signature. I’m absolutely in love with the Euphoria. That, the hot tubes, and the ODR are about the only dirt pedals that sound good with my AC4 because it needs added bass content. Keep up the good work. I’m sure I’ll end up with more of your pedals.
I was kinda looking for a Rat circuit for a while. This sounds awesome and does so much more. I've never pulled the trigger so quickly on a new release that I remember. I'm sold. Dang, Brian. Ratsbane is on its way.
First of all, fantastic job on that pedal. Second, fantastic job on the demo video. Third, I totally love the additional Pedal Nerd stuff at the end. I wish recipe bloggers would follow this order...
Here we go again. Awesome,gotta have it.been waiting to buy a rat ,it has been a staple for yrs if thats what you need, and this thing goes way beyond that but in the same wheelhouse, it sounds great .fantastic job !!
I love seeing Brian this stoked on a new dirt pedal! Sounds awesome, man! I’m adding it to my list of Wampler stuff I need. He loves dirt pedals. He loves making dirt pedals. And I love that.
Sounds amazing! Can't wait to get my hand on one! I have to agree with another commenter that I wish it wasn't mini. Top-mounted regular size takes basically the same space on a board and knobs are not so small and crowded. I guess there's more demand for minis, oh well...
This afternoon: thinking I would put a Rat in my rig, if only it was a little bit smaller and more tweekable. Then I saw this. Brian is strong with the force no doubt 👍😁
This looks awesome! Can't wait to check it out at my local store when they reopen. If only it had been called the WampRat from Star Wars. Maybe that's trademarked already though.
Just picked one of these up today! Its like my Rat but on steroids!! I love it!! Can't wait to put it through its paces and see how far I can push it this week!
I got this. And the voice switch on the right position is genius! Other settings are great, but that's what sets this apart from others! I have Tumnus Deluxe, Plexidrive deluxe and Ratsbane now on my board, i am a happy camper!!
Very cool stuff as always! Really appreciate that you share the nerdy stuff about your creations and even though I know nothing about electronics it just explains why things sound like that. Keep it up!
Now that's my kind of demo, no waffle, no gilding the lily, just straight forward "it does this " Damn you and yer hard sell! Looks like I'm putting me hand in me pocket again!
So on the same day Josh Scott at JHS says the "rarest pedal in the world" is essentially a Rat circuit but he won't clone it to "preserve the mystery", and Brian Wampler announces that he's gone ahead and made a Rat clone/variant.
Love it for the graphics alone!! A plague doctor! So fitting for our times. Reminds of when I lived in the USA a few years ago and my son went out at Haloween dressed as a plague doctor and very few people knew what he was!?! I love the fleibility you have built in to this. I have a Jam Pedals Rattler which is going to have a little competition for 'board space now.
Man…..this pedal with the gain dialed back, and used to tighten up a pushed Marshall styled amp is absolutely magical….very Nuno Bettencourt-esq (first Extreme cd). Apparently, he used it to hit the front of a JCM 800 in that exact manner. And, his tone on that record is right up there with DiMartini (Invasion) and EVH (Fair Warning), IMO. For whatever reason, you don’t se see any TH-cam demo’s with it dialed in like that..
Love the rat sounds. Really enjoy these videos where you use the frequency analyser to show what’s happening with controls. The visual reference makes it so easy to understand what’s going on.
When I thought it was just a cool Rat I wasn’t interested but that second voice though takes it to dual pedal territory in a mini, in my opinion! Great job! 🤓🤘🏻🎸
Haven't got the ratsbane yet but this video is amazing !! Thanks for talking us through the frequencies and the circuit. Other brands need to take note !
OMG! I was searching for a Rat 'cause I need its fuzz/distortion sound in some of my own songs that I'm about to record! You released this pedal just in time! I'm definitely buying one!
I was interested in this pedal as soon as I found out about it but was trying to tell myself to put it off for a while. I watched a few demos and was even more tempted, but this video is what cinched it. Not only Brian's playing, but also his charisma and earnest are what made me say, "Yeah, I'm spending money on this." Just ordered it. Anyone want to buy my Rat?
Love these videos Brian - thanks! Just to confirm for you, you are both the best and worst person in the world, with the coolest and most lame pedals. Love, TGP
Well...I got my Ratsbane yesterday and I have to say,I am impressed.Every setting that I used was actually useful,musical and feel great under the fingers.Naturally it has a ton of gain (with a respectable noise floor) but even at low gain or low guitar volume,it still has a very full,pleasing tone.All in all...good job sir!
Thank you for making this. I love Rat style pedals. This looks very useful with the features you chose to include. I will look into getting one of these!! Wise choice making a Rat!
A minute into the demo I purchased this. Sounds great. Been on a RAT search lately. Just sold a Skinner Box. The idea of a killer tiny RAT is awesome. And it’s from Wampler....so...
Great pedal! Used a rat all through to 80's and this pedal is every bit as good, even better considering the extended options. Wish it was bigger but other than that it kills.
I like it Brian. I only have one of yours on my board. The Ego and I can tell you I love that compressor! It's an always on for me because of it's flexibility.
Stock mode definitely sounds like a vintage RAT or big box reissue. The options to change gain, clipping and EQ really makes it much more versatile though. You've got boost, vintage overdrive, fuzz, and modern distortion in one small enclosure. Well done!
Had a 90's Korean dot that I sold and constantly kick myself for! I've bought and sold numerous Gibson's, but I miss the epi dot more than any except the lp standard dc, and those are close.
I really can't justify buying a Gibson Standard or Fender AmPro when Epiphone and Squier stuff is so good. It's not every bit as good but it's certainly not 5-10x worse than the real deal. My Affinity Strat is the only guitar I own that I would never part with
In '75 I had Charlie Wicks at ProCo build me some extension speakers for a Twin Reverb I had. To thank him for a tour of the place; I tossed in a overdrive or distortion pedal he said they just made. The brand name on it was Systech. This was before they made the Rat. I don't know anything about how close the design was to a Rat but it's sound was kind of like early Black Keys stuff.
Looks, uh sounds like a killer pedal. There seem to be many distortion pedals out there. Hard to choose which ones are best. Depends on what one is looking for. I like the versatility you offer with this pedal. Thanks Brian.
nice Brian, now can you do a video of how to power all these pedals of yours we're trying to fit on our pedal board. but seriously, loving lots of your pedals.
How is this not called the "Wamprat"?
Missed opportunity for sure
Pretty sure some "friendly rat" would come by his house with a lawsuit
@@thekramer1097 or at least a union protest with the giant blow up rat
Because it would double the price and that extra money would go to Disney :)
Like it
I love how the great pedal makers are also just super great people. Keeley, Josh from JHS and Brian are just a few examples but all super friendly and knowledgeable and they all advertise all kinds of pedals, not just their own. Just ordered my first two wampler pedals, a tumnus deluxe and a ratsbane, replacing a sugar drive and a bd2.
I have the Tumnus Deluxe and love the thing as a full bore lead tone - how you liking it so far?
I'd keep the BD-2 for a perfect trio of gain staging
I watched the Ratsbane announcement a few minutes after it posted, hit pause, found it on Sweetwater, ordered it, it arrived yesterday and now it is in my sweaty hands, most excellent!
Brian, I'm from Brazil, I own one of your pedals and I would like to say that you have the best pedals I've ever played. Thank you for your fabulous work.
Didn't Luke Skywalker used to bullseye Wamprats all the time?
Yep in his T16 back home
They’re not much bigger than two meters.
I WAS GONNA SAY THAT. DAMMIT
That should have been the name of the pedal. Wamprat...
@@Samana009 they would almost certainly get a cease and desist letter for that. Many pedal companies get them.
So glad he’s on TH-cam. Brian seems like such a great dude that loves his craft and enjoys showing his methods. Super helpful, super interesting and tons of fun to watch! Thank you kind sir.
True.

Ppl 000⁰⁰
I've been eyeballing this one for a little while now, and I finally got one.
I love it!
Good job Brian!
Thanks!!
I just got this pedal and use it as a clean boost. This pedal added so much to my tone. LOVE THIS PEDAL.
I just ordered mine last night!
It will be my first Wampler pedal. I made a joke on FB about Brian and he responded with a great sense of humor. A true gentleman, and cool guy.
I'm so excited for this. I've been thinking about getting a rat for a while. I'm actually from Kalamazoo and I always wondered what was happening at that ProCo place and why all those metal heads were always outside smoking.
Another fantastic pedal from Brian Wampler. He's a great guy and world class pedal designer/builder . Been waiting for this 🐭 for a long time !!
This pedal honestly sounds amazing. I would kill to have such a flexible rat sounding effect. Congratulations Brian. You continue to amaze us with your ability to grace the market with your talent. Thank you and rock on
Mr Wampler is a gift to Guitarkind.
Safe to say this will officially bump my Mooer Black Secret off the board.
Better build quality and MUCHO versatility. I find every tone you pulled up to be quite gig worthy. Bravo Brian!!
The Black Secret has opened my eyes to Rat-style pedals! It's my favourite distortion pedal at the moment and I'm looking for an upgrade regarding build-quality. Because the sound from the Mooer is great actually!
Love the black secret! This does look and sound pretty tempting though!
Always wanted a Black Secret but never pulled the trigger. Guess I was just waiting for Brian to show me the way to Maximum Ratness
I love how Brian doesn’t try to be coy about making a clone. He’s just like, “yeah I made a RAT, here it is”. 😂
Dude, Mr. Wampler did not make a clone...that's just it. This thing is wayyyyy better than a Proco Rat.
Wampler pedals are never direct clones. He always says they're his take on that style of pedal
Like it says on the Tumnus which I love, it's available! Which is way better and easier than chasing down vintage units. Although I'm not sure about the Rat availability.
Brian!!! You.. are.. da.... MAN!! I play guitar with Tommy Emmanuel and many other artists down here in Australia, and not only have I destroyed all my old Rats (I even have one of the original big bodied ones) from many many years of international touring, but to have YOUR mind do a re-creation is a dream come true.

Thanks Simon!
Great tone from the epiphone, this is the best hotrod version of The Pro Co R♤T I've ever heard, great job Andy
What a little beauty. Great pedal and video, Brian!
Thanks man... your pedals are one of the very few brands I trust out the gate. I know that ANY Wampler pedal I buy will be great and will last. I've never been let down by a Wampler pedal! This one's on the list 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

ANNNNDDDD I'm buying another Wampler pedal.
My thoughts exactly
As am I....
Is there a 12 step group for us yet?
Me too...
Why don’t you buy the real thing ? I bet it is cheaper too. And it looks so much better.
Amen!
This is one of your best sounding pedals right now. I love your guy’s stuff, but this pedal is absolutely filthy and I love it!
Just got this today and and I love it! It makes even a Princeton sound monstrous!
Best Nerd Pedal Channel There Is. Great Video!!!
Brian, I just wanted to say I have all the respect in the world for you because you never do a straight up copy of anything. It always has your signature. I’m absolutely in love with the Euphoria. That, the hot tubes, and the ODR are about the only dirt pedals that sound good with my AC4 because it needs added bass content. Keep up the good work. I’m sure I’ll end up with more of your pedals.
Its not a want, its a need. I NEED IT.
Great job, this thing sounds killer!
I was kinda looking for a Rat circuit for a while. This sounds awesome and does so much more. I've never pulled the trigger so quickly on a new release that I remember. I'm sold. Dang, Brian. Ratsbane is on its way.
Your pedals are just straight 🔥🔥🔥
First of all, fantastic job on that pedal. Second, fantastic job on the demo video. Third, I totally love the additional Pedal Nerd stuff at the end. I wish recipe bloggers would follow this order...
Here we go again. Awesome,gotta have it.been waiting to buy a rat ,it has been a staple for yrs if thats what you need, and this thing goes way beyond that but in the same wheelhouse, it sounds great .fantastic job !!
Dear Brian ...... You have another winner with this one ! This is a rat with big wings . Aerodynamic for sure . Dig it !
I love seeing Brian this stoked on a new dirt pedal! Sounds awesome, man! I’m adding it to my list of Wampler stuff I need. He loves dirt pedals. He loves making dirt pedals. And I love that.
By the way.. I will always call this pedal by the name it could not be called. It’s the Wamprat. Plain and sweet gang.
2020 was the year of the Rat so perfect time to design one 🤘🏽. I think UA Audio has the year of the OX (box) covered for the theme this year.
Sounds amazing! Can't wait to get my hand on one! I have to agree with another commenter that I wish it wasn't mini. Top-mounted regular size takes basically the same space on a board and knobs are not so small and crowded. I guess there's more demand for minis, oh well...
It’s almost like size should be the amount of time you use it? Small pedal=not often.
Like salt for a dinner, not too much.
. Great job, Mr Wampler My current favorite pedal. UPS brought to me yesterday. Fulltone Ranger into Ratsbane = 💙 BLISS
Wow that actually is the best sounding rat circuit i've ever heard!
This afternoon: thinking I would put a Rat in my rig, if only it was a little bit smaller and more tweekable. Then I saw this. Brian is strong with the force no doubt 👍😁

Hey "Big Wamp" Hope all is going well for you and yours! Love the "Rat Poison" Ratsbane pedal tone for sure man! Congrats!
Sounded awesome love the modern twist on a ckassic🔥
Great pedal! And I loved the nerdy circuit analysis, please keep doing it!
I got this. And the voice switch on the right position is genius! Other settings are great, but that's what sets this apart from others! I have Tumnus Deluxe, Plexidrive deluxe and Ratsbane now on my board, i am a happy camper!!
Thanks! Glad you like it!
This is my first Wampler pedal and I’m impressed!
i love these mini pedals, looks and sounds great too.
Very cool stuff as always! Really appreciate that you share the nerdy stuff about your creations and even though I know nothing about electronics it just explains why things sound like that.
Keep it up!
Now that's my kind of demo, no waffle, no gilding the lily, just straight forward "it does this "
Damn you and yer hard sell! Looks like I'm putting me hand in me pocket again!
I need this pedal! Darn it, that sounds killer. Once again Brian, another home run!
So on the same day Josh Scott at JHS says the "rarest pedal in the world" is essentially a Rat circuit but he won't clone it to "preserve the mystery", and Brian Wampler announces that he's gone ahead and made a Rat clone/variant.
I noticed that too lol. I watched the videos back to back.
Ditto
I thought he was making a joke of not revealing the circuit though he knew what it was, while revealing what it was
JHS' Series 3 Distortion is a Rat Clone. Josh says so.
@@kevinogorman7561 you happen to know what the 3 series delay is?
Love it for the graphics alone!! A plague doctor! So fitting for our times.

Dude putting that socket in is such a good idea. Can't wait to get my hands on one of these!
Love the rat sounds. Really enjoy these videos where you use the frequency analyser to show what’s happening with controls. The visual reference makes it so easy to understand what’s going on.
Such great videos, great sounding pedal, and cool graphic on it! Nice job Brian!
I bought 2 EQuator pedals because I think they are fantastic!...thanks for making them Brian.
I want this pedal! Love the name and the graphics!
Thanks for the visual on the scope!
This pedal offers SO much more than the classic...I hope you made 5000 of them for release!!!
When I thought it was just a cool Rat I wasn’t interested but that second voice though takes it to dual pedal territory in a mini, in my opinion! Great job! 🤓🤘🏻🎸
And you probably want to shave before those extreme close up shots 😜
🤣 I don’t think I’ve shaved for at least a couple of years now haha! The benefits of working from home!
Thinking this pedal, Terraform and a EHX Op Amp Pumpkins pedal will fit mini board nicely for some 90's Alt setlist action!! Awesome Brian!!👏👏👏
Haven't got the ratsbane yet but this video is amazing !! Thanks for talking us through the frequencies and the circuit. Other brands need to take note !
Cheers Brian you've made the best day clone I've ever heard. Going to try and buy one asap.
0:16 That's me! Thank you for blurring my name! Pedal sounds great, btw.
Wow! Been looking for a rat style pedal for a while. This nails what I want and in a small enclosure. Sold!
Yeah.. that's nice. You are an artist sir. I can tell that will sound good infront of any amp.
So, this is an instant must buy... lol Sounds awesome, thanks!
Sounds good Brian! Good luck with this new tone monster!
OMG! I was searching for a Rat 'cause I need its fuzz/distortion sound in some of my own songs that I'm about to record! You released this pedal just in time! I'm definitely buying one!
Oh Happy Day! I just got the Ratsbane yesterday! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🎸 🐀
Damn. I keep telling myself I don't need more drive pedals. But I could use a distortion pedal!
This is exactly what I e been waiting for in a fuzz/distortion morph!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I was interested in this pedal as soon as I found out about it but was trying to tell myself to put it off for a while.

You did a phenomenal job Brian.
Love these videos Brian - thanks! Just to confirm for you, you are both the best and worst person in the world, with the coolest and most lame pedals. Love, TGP
I've got a few overdrives and one fuzz, but this looks like it'll be a great first distortion. Thank you for making it!
Really awesome take on this classic circuit.
Well...I got my Ratsbane yesterday and I have to say,I am impressed.Every setting that I used was actually useful,musical and feel great under the fingers.Naturally it has a ton of gain (with a respectable noise floor) but even at low gain or low guitar volume,it still has a very full,pleasing tone.All in all...good job sir!
Thank you for making this. I love Rat style pedals. This looks very useful with the features you chose to include. I will look into getting one of these!! Wise choice making a Rat!
The modern side of the voice is absolutely amazing! I honestly prefer that tone more than the vintage pro-co.
Outstanding, thanks Brian! Mine is on the way.
SuperWampler. Wampler pedals are so good merci beaucoup
A minute into the demo I purchased this. Sounds great. Been on a RAT search lately. Just sold a Skinner Box. The idea of a killer tiny RAT is awesome. And it’s from Wampler....so...
So fucking stoked to grab this!
Awesome! Excited for this one.
Professor Wampler. Class is now in session!
Great pedal! Used a rat all through to 80's and this pedal is every bit as good, even better considering the extended options. Wish it was bigger but other than that it kills.
Thanks for playing a non premium guitar. Love the video!
I like it Brian. I only have one of yours on my board. The Ego and I can tell you I love that compressor! It's an always on for me because of it's flexibility.
Nice sounding circuit all without a LM308 I suspect. I like your additions are a nice added touch to make it a very versatile pedal. Good job.
Stock mode definitely sounds like a vintage RAT or big box reissue. The options to change gain, clipping and EQ really makes it much more versatile though. You've got boost, vintage overdrive, fuzz, and modern distortion in one small enclosure. Well done!
With that new Epiphone headstock, there's really no reason left to waste money on a Gibson ... (-: That thing sings!
I love it!
Had a 90's Korean dot that I sold and constantly kick myself for! I've bought and sold numerous Gibson's, but I miss the epi dot more than any except the lp standard dc, and those are close.
I really can't justify buying a Gibson Standard or Fender AmPro when Epiphone and Squier stuff is so good. It's not every bit as good but it's certainly not 5-10x worse than the real deal. My Affinity Strat is the only guitar I own that I would never part with
I went over to Sweetwater to look at the guitar. There's a review by a guy named "Brian W" from Indiana. Wonder who that could be? 🤔😊
@@NathanSink Does he rave about who great it sounds through all the Wampler pedals? Might be a clue ...
Thank you for the in depth breakdown of the circuit
In '75 I had Charlie Wicks at ProCo build me some extension speakers for a Twin Reverb I had. To thank him for a tour of the place; I tossed in a overdrive or distortion pedal he said they just made. The brand name on it was Systech. This was before they made the Rat. I don't know anything about how close the design was to a Rat but it's sound was kind of like early Black Keys stuff.
Looks and sounds great. One day I’ll buy a mini pedal.
Holy crap, now I know how to play "Everlong"
Bonus round!
Looks, uh sounds like a killer pedal. There seem to be many distortion pedals out there. Hard to choose which ones are best. Depends on what one is looking for. I like the versatility you offer with this pedal. Thanks Brian.
nice Brian, now can you do a video of how to power all these pedals of yours we're trying to fit on our pedal board. but seriously, loving lots of your pedals.
Fantastic pedal, Brian! Now time has come to pay tribute to Boss DS-1, with your fantastic approach. please, man!!!! It would be a no brainer
I'd love it if you could do a Power Boost style with a mids knob and stronger bass cut
did you...did you just link to your audience the actual rat product??
YOU MADLAD LEGEND. That is confidence right there.
Yep sir I did, everyone should have a rat in their arsenal 😊
