What's included:

  • JHS Pedals PackRat Distortion Pedal

The JHS Pedals PackRat is a compact analog distortion pedal built for players who want a wide range of classic gain textures in a single stompbox. Inspired by decades of legendary RAT-style circuits, it delivers nine carefully selected distortion modes that cover everything from low-gain grit and punchy crunch to saturated lead tones and raw, fuzz-like aggression. This makes it an excellent choice for guitarists who need flexibility without sacrificing pedalboard space.

Intuitive controls for Volume, Distortion, and Filter let you quickly fine-tune output, gain, and top-end response, while the dedicated Mode selector makes it easy to switch between distinct clipping flavours and tonal personalities. Whether you’re chasing articulate rhythm tones, cutting solos, or heavier garage and punk textures, the PackRat gives you a broad palette of usable sounds in a straightforward format.

Built with true bypass switching and housed in a durable, road-ready enclosure, the PackRat is designed to perform reliably on stage, in the studio, or at home. Its standard 9V DC power compatibility makes it easy to integrate into most existing pedalboard setups, while the all-analog signal path preserves the responsive feel and character players expect from a premium distortion pedal.
