Notes: The JAM Pedals Rattler LTD is a boutique, hand-built distortion pedal that elevates the classic RAT-style circuit with premium vintage components, point-to-point wiring, and one of the most sought-after op-amps ever used in a distortion pedal—the rare NOS LM308AH can-version chip. Designed as a limited-edition release, the Rattler LTD delivers the unmistakable character of vintage distortion while offering enhanced clarity, dynamics, and responsiveness for modern players.

Built with carbon-composition resistors, tropical fish capacitors, and meticulous point-to-point construction, the Rattler LTD produces a wide range of gain textures, from rich low-gain overdrive and amp-like breakup to thick, sustaining distortion and singing lead tones. Its symmetrical clipping architecture, driven by the coveted LM308AH chip, creates a smoother and more refined voice than the standard Rattler, with a warm, harmonically rich character that excels with both single-coil and humbucker-equipped guitars.

A dedicated gain-stage toggle switch allows players to select between a full-gain distortion mode and a more open, lower-gain setting, providing exceptional versatility for everything from transparent drive tones to classic rock saturation and soaring lead sounds. The pedal's responsive dynamics and touch sensitivity make it equally effective as an always-on foundation drive or a primary distortion voice.

Housed in JAM Pedals' distinctive leather-wrapped enclosure, the Rattler LTD combines collectible craftsmanship with professional-grade performance. Its limited production, rare LM308AH chip, and premium construction have made it one of the most desirable offerings in the JAM Pedals lineup.
