Amps that pair well with the ProCo RAT 2

Quilter Aviator CUB

The Aviator CUB's own pedal-platform design gives the RAT's cutting distortion real headroom to push into without choking the amp's chimey voice.

Bad Cat Black Cat

Push the Black Cat's glassy, headroom-rich clean gain with the RAT 2's bright, cutting distortion and it opens up into real dirt instead of just breaking up.

Fender Super Reverb

The RAT's bright, cutting distortion pushes the Super Reverb's clean, spacious breakup into gritty territory.

Soldano SLO 100R

The RAT's low-gain, cutting distortion gives the SLO 100R's quiet, touring-grade clean channel a rawer analog gain stage to drive into.

Milkman Sound Beekeeper 18W 4x8 Combo

The RAT's cutting distortion pushes the Beekeeper's sag-heavy, chimey clean platform into rawer territory than the amp's own gentle breakup.

Omega Darkglass AO900 Alpha 900 Bass Head

The RAT's cutting, low-gain distortion stacks well into the AO900's modern, saturated bass headroom for extra grit on top of the amp's own drive.

Supro 1612RT Amulet 15W 1x10 Combo

The RAT's raw, cutting distortion suits the Supro's already-gritty garage voicing, adding more bite without smoothing over the amp's rawness.

Gallien-Krueger Fusion 500 S

A RAT 2 out front gives the Fusion 500's organic, harmonic-rich preamp the low-gain grind it doesn't produce on its own.

Revv Generator 100P MkIII 3-Channel Head

The 100P's clear, high-gain hard-rock distortion pushes the RAT 2's bright, cutting distortion into much heavier territory.

Mesa Boogie F-30 1x12 Combo

The RAT's cutting, low-gain distortion stacks into the F-30's blues-voiced clean channel for a rawer, punkier edge than the amp's own crunch.

Two-Rock Vintage Deluxe 6L6 35W Head

Into the Vintage Deluxe's glassy, sag-driven touch response, the RAT's dark, cutting distortion pushes harder than the amp's natural breakup alone.

Marshall Origin 50 Head

Push the Origin 50's driven midrange headroom with the RAT 2's bright, cutting distortion and the two stack instead of just adding volume.

Cornell Romany 10 Tweed 10 watt Tube

Push the Romany 10's chimey, musical tweed breakup with the RAT 2's bright, cutting distortion and the two stack into real dirt.

Milkman Sound Pint 10W

Push the Pint's transformer-driven breakup with the RAT 2's bright, cutting distortion and the two stack instead of just getting louder.

Fender Bassbreaker 007 7-Watt

Push the Bassbreaker's chimey, vintage clean tone with the RAT 2's bright, cutting distortion and it opens up into real dirt.

Mesa Boogie Subway D-800

Push the Subway D-800's bright, cutting preamp with the RAT's low-gain drive for aggressive, stage-ready bass grit.

Fuchs Blackjack 21 MKII

The RAT's dark, cutting distortion is a sharper edge than the Blackjack's own touch-responsive breakup offers on its own.

Blackstar Unity 500

Push the Unity 500's transparent, mid-forward drive with the RAT 2's bright, cutting distortion and the two stack into real dirt.

Magnatone Starlite 1x8 Combo

Push the Starlite 1x8's sparkling clean tone with the RAT's cutting drive for grit that still keeps some of the amp's own harmonic character.

Hartke LH1000 Bass Head

A RAT 2 out front gives the LH1000's punchy, warm preamp the low-gain, cutting distortion it doesn't produce on its own.

Magnatone Starlite Reverb 10

Push the Starlite's clean, spring-reverb voice with the RAT's cutting drive for grit that still lets the harmonic reverb shine through.

Fuchs FBS-700

A RAT 2 in front of the FBS-700 adds low-gain, cutting distortion the bass head's own clean headroom doesn't otherwise offer.

Soldano SLO-30 Super Lead Overdrive

The RAT's dark, cutting distortion is a sharper, brighter edge than the SLO-30's own buffered, clean-club fundamental voice offers alone.

Laney Richter RB2 Bass Combo

The RAT's bright, cutting drive gives the RB2's clean bass tone real grit without losing low-end presence.
