So, does anyone know? I'm looking to get that sick bass sound Mortician uses. I think it's some green pedal, but I don't know. Any ideas?

I dont know but the RAT pedal is pretty fuckin nasty. Thats all ive used for over 10 years. And they never break, built like a tank.

take any distortion pedal, turn everything all the way up, making it sound like absolute shit, and you have mortician's bass.

Youve also gotta throw your bass down the stairs a couple of times to get the proper tuning they use.

ProCo RAT is all I've been using since....I was 12. I'm gonna be 24 this year.

truly built like a fucking tank.

the new ones are shit though...see if you can get one of the older ones, they are made of thick fucking steel. RATs get better with age....they break in.

cheap as hell, too.

"God Rules! God Rules!" repeat x10,000...

I fucking love that CD.

I like anything with a blend knob, I try to get a nice Cnic/Atheist syle midend tone, with just a hint of growly distortion that only comes through when the bass is solo. Ibanez makes a decent one, and I think the Boss one's ok, I've used that. Of course, when you're talking about distorted bass - Danny Lilker swears by the SansAmp GT2 - the guitar pedal, not the Bass Driver. :nuke:

Never used the bass rat, but Ill agree with nickcigs, that the newer rats arent as good as the old ones.
Im sure, its the same as old thing as any 'buff' or fan of some product would attest to. Old Gibson paf afficianado's said when they removed the gold sticker from the bottom of the pickup, they lost their 'tone' and demanded only P.A.F. 's and not the newer models.
I saw a proco BRAT and it was like bright pink and I thought, hmm Rat has gotten gay.
The main reason Im not a RAT fan, is...............................................
My dad used to use one !!
Were talkin Molly Hatchet, were talkin Boston, were talkin Fucking Johhny Winter.
It all made me say....."MORE SATURATION NOW!!!!"

hmm, I can see what ya mean, kinda like my encouraging my bandmate to get a JCM900 instead of JCM2000, older is better with the Marshalls too
