This pre-owned unit is in excellent working condition and exhibits only very gentle external wear, with velcro applied to the bottom as shown in photos. Internally, it performs flawlessly, offering the signature growl, grit, and compression that defined a generation of rock tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"802\" data-end=\"850\"\u003eBoutique Adaptation of a Legendary Circuit\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"851\" data-end=\"1262\"\u003eBrian Wampler reengineered the classic distortion platform to deliver enhanced clarity, lower noise, and greater touch response. The Ratsbane captures that mid-forward bite with a carefully tuned voice that excels for riff-heavy rhythm work and lead lines alike. Toggleable clipping and filter voicing add flexibility, making this a serious upgrade for those chasing the original without sacrificing fidelity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1264\" data-end=\"1312\"\u003eVersatile Gain Staging with Modern Control\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1313\" data-end=\"1660\"\u003eThe gain range runs from edge-of-breakup crunch to saturated distortion, and the three control knobs—Distortion, Filter, and Volume—respond with precision. The Filter knob, a key part of this circuit’s DNA, allows everything from smooth high-end roll-off to aggressive bite, while the selectable clipping mode enhances harmonic content and feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1662\" data-end=\"1700\"\u003eBuilt to Gig, Record, and Travel\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1701\" data-end=\"1991\"\u003eCompact enough to slide into any rig but packed with high-quality components, this Ratsbane includes its original box, branded carrying case, product literature, Wampler stickers, and rubber feet. The pedal does not include a power supply and runs on standard 9V DC center-negative power.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"1993\" data-end=\"2033\"\u003ePremium Tone in a Portable Package\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2034\" data-end=\"2347\"\u003eWhether you’re stacking with other drives or using it as a standalone dirt box, the Ratsbane delivers a boutique take on a gritty classic that’s ready to punch through any mix. Its transparency, compact size, and broad EQ curve make it a distortion pedal that adapts to your playing rather than overpowering it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"2349\" data-end=\"2369\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"2370\" data-end=\"2687\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2370\" data-end=\"2456\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2372\" data-end=\"2456\"\u003eCondition: Pre-Owned, excellent with very light external wear and velcro on bottom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2457\" data-end=\"2517\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2459\" data-end=\"2517\"\u003ePower: 9V DC center-negative (power supply not included)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2518\" data-end=\"2558\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2520\" data-end=\"2558\"\u003eControls: Volume, Filter, Distortion\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2559\" data-end=\"2611\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2561\" data-end=\"2611\"\u003eSwitches: Voice toggle for classic\/open clipping\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"2612\" data-end=\"2687\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2614\" data-end=\"2687\"\u003eIncluded: Box, carrying case, product literature, stickers, rubber feet\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Wampler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44650772070591,"sku":"133938","price":74.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0899\/5804\/files\/Pre_Owned_Wampler_Ratsbane-68f6c107aade8_0696d77d-c2e6-4c26-a20e-efa91723c724.jpg?v=1761442570","url":"https:\/\/fivestarguitars.com\/products\/pre-owned-wampler-ratsbane","provider":"Five Star Guitars","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
