    RAT Ruetz mod.

    Did it to my homemade RAT today... Too bassy now for geetar. Guess I'll fiddle with the cap, or reverse it if that doesn't work. I think this would work better on a stocker, but I "tuned" mine. Oh well, it's all a learning experience.

    Oops!

    It does make it less bright. I can see where it might not work if you've done other things to tame your Rat's high end. My clone is completely stock, otherwise.

    Re: RAT Ruetz mod.

    I reversed this mod awhile ago. Today I made a "stacked" Chip to try out, since my IC is socketed. Not much change, if at all, from what I got going. This has got me thinking that the couple little mods I did are just about right. I still however plan on fiddling a little with the idea of what the Ruetz mod was doing. From reading the explanation, by adjusting the resistor and cap values I might be able to tune this section some. I am very happy with what I have going, but there's that part of me that can't leave well enough alone. Still trying to find a suitable replacement for my first RAT, which was a killer!
