Sold my rat I built a while ago. It was so awesome, I decided to rebuild my Rat 2 to the same vintage specs+ better parts. I replaced all the electros in the signal path with tantalum caps, replaced some resistors so there`s only metal film ones, replaced the ceramic caps with film and silver mica caps..and most important I got rid of the lame thin sounding OP070P chip. The LM308N has got more balls! That`s about it! I also tried to make the wires a little tidyer. I will eventually replace the in and out wires for shielded ones.I ziptied the battery wires to the jack terminal for a simple but effective strain relief. Now the pedal sounds like a RAT should!
Here`s first before, then after:
