OVERDRIVE- BMF EFFECTS High Roller ...a classic Rat with NOS transistor

BMF EFFECTS 
$195.00 USD
|HIGH ROLLER

ProCo only made a couple of hundred of the coveted Rats with a LM308 OpAmp chip. At one time there were a lot of the small shops making one 
but the fashion for a long time now is to make some kind of super Rat. Many have turn them into an average every day OD others have pushed them into a Fuzz. Some guys even know I expect would be happier with an original circuit Rat. BMF comes to the rescue. The layout is like all Rats. Volume Tone/filter and Gain.
CONCLUSION ___
Most of us that heard a Rat on a recording and loved it were listening to the Rat II.
There are thousands of them made not just the handful from
a few years. The Rat II has more bite and balz. If it's Metal 
and it is a Rat it is a Rat II. I own an old LM308 but it sits 
on a shelf. 
It is the Rat II that is on my board.  
......I Just checked ... Rat II $80.00 USD
