The JHS PackRat is a tribute to one of the most iconic distortion circuits ever made, capturing nine distinct versions of the classic Rat sound in a single pedal. Covering early vintage tones, high-gain variants, boutique interpretations, and modern takes, the PackRat gives players a complete library of distortion styles. Whether you play rock, worship, alternative, punk, or modern guitar, this pedal offers a full range of saturated tones that can fit almost any guitar effects setup.
The PackRat delivers everything players love about the Rat family, but with true versatility thanks to the nine selectable modes. It is articulate, heavy when needed, and extremely flexible. It stacks well with boosts, delays, reverbs, and other JHS pedals, making it a powerful main distortion or a perfect addition to a gain-stacking setup.
