Pro Co Deucetone RAT Dual Distortion / Fuzz / Overdrive Pedal Reviews
The Pro Co Deucetone RAT is a rodent-themed-pedal fanatic's dream come true. This robust distortion stompbox is jam-packed with two independent channels of RAT-style dirt. But that's not all! Each channel boasts three switchable voices based on popular historic iterations of this classic circuit. Channel A includes Vintage RAT, Turbo RAT, and Dirty RAT, while Channel B sports Vintage RAT, Turbo RAT, and a Deucetone-exclusive Clean RAT that guitarists here at Sweetwater appreciate for its ample clean boost capabilities. In essence, the Deucetone crams six RAT pedals into a single near-bulletproof steel enclosure. Best of all, this pedal's channels can be used separately, in stereo, or cascaded into a cacophonic sludgefest. Each of the Deucetone RAT's channels features a familiar Distortion, Filter, and Volume knob, along with an independent on/off footswitch. Whether you're hot-rodding your British high-gain head, sending your on-the-brink American-style combo into sweet overdrive, or injecting your squeaky-clean high-headroom amp with a dose of heavy-duty grunge, the Deucetone RAT makes a worthwhile addition to any electric guitarist's pedalboard.

Yes, I've had the Proco Deucetone RAT for 16 years. It has literally been on my board ever since. I would have to say, after all of these years, that it is my best pedal, and the best pedal I've ever had. I'm surprised it doesn't get brought up more than it does. I've tried basically every conceivable setting on this pedal, and combination.
It will fatten up a cheap amp. The cascade function is excellent, multiple RATs actually work amazingly well together (one can boost the other). I also have a WFRI on my board. Both pedals are superb. It is a really close call.
I've stepped on the Deucetone tens of thousands of times. I just love it. I'll never part with it, and it will probably never come off my board.
Proco Deucetone Rat.
I am an absolute Rat junkie, I've played through them all & I've owned / still have the most sought after variations available. The Deucetone is the final rat I am adding to my collection & is now probably my favorite (although beating the Fat Rat is near impossible) mainly because of it's convenience of cascading / stacking two rats together without
the addition of another patch cable, but it's also got Turbo, You Dirty Rat & a Clean Rat settings which puts this thing over the top. Giving you that instant Sunn o))) drone doom metal sound is so easy with this pedal.
The only reason why it's a 5 star pedal is only because of it's size, but it's heavy duty.
Save yourself some money & buy this thing, you won't regret it.
