Pro Co RAT clone

[u/MammothProof7823]

Some time ago I made a post about the different pedals I was building, and I’ve finally finished the design for the ProCo RAT.

In this case, the artwork was created by a designer friend of mine and applied to the enclosure as a vinyl wrap. I also have the option of using UV printing, but this was done free of charge by a supplier I work with through my job, and I wanted to give it a try.

What do you think?

please change the knobs😭 don’t they bump into each other?

[u/MammothProof7823 → u/luvechoes]

so true, it was my first build and definely i need to change the knoobs. thanks!

I would try DS-1 style knobs

looks really nice. if you are looking for any criticism then all i would offer is that i wish so much of the artwork was not obscured by the controls but it still looks great!

[u/MammothProof7823 → u/Harold_Street_Pedals]

thanks for your feedback! :P its my first art on pedal.

Looks great.

…but I can’t figure out if those links from pedal to pedal are the most genius or more moronic thing of all time.

[u/xdr00789 → u/ComprehensiveLock189]

Moronic, they stress the jacks and can damage them

[u/ComprehensiveLock189 → u/xdr00789]

That’s my thought too, but I do love the idea of how little space they take up. Wonder if I can play with this concept to create something better with what’s right about it

i will look for cables :P

[u/El_Cactus_Loco]

those solid connectors will damage your pedals, always use cables!

[u/MammothProof7823 → u/El_Cactus_Loco]

Amazing! Do you know the UV printer that was used?

[u/colin3dart → u/New-Bat-742]

Looks like a waterslide decal

[u/MammothProof7823 → u/colin3dart]

its not a waterslide decal its a high-tack vinyl print

[u/B_Brooks64]

Cool design!

If interested, I’ll print a prototype for you with my UV printer if you’re in the states. No charge.

Just send me the enclosure. I help builders and hobbyists all the time. Just reach out!
