Jeff Beck

It has appeared on thousands of records and shared the stage with the world's greatest bands. It also graces the concrete floors of countless garages and basements, standing ready to assist the next generation of guitarists – The Sound of the Underground.

The Sound of the Underground

We realize that the success of our products is due to the bands that have chosen to use them to create their art. That's why we want to give back and help the new generation of RAT users.

If you have recorded a CD using RAT pedals on either a major or independent label, we want to list your band on our website.
