Title: I have a Keeley RAT and...........
Post by: timrand on February 12, 2004, 08:17:52 AM
Well

I thought I would invest in a RAT and after searching around I thought I would spend the extra and buy a Keeley modified RAT. OK the pedal sounds great in the Keeley mods mode;s however the actual pots are really touchy I don't turn any pot above 7'o'clock the gain is crazy the pedal sounds awesome however completely UNUSABLE in its current form. I got caught up in the harmony central Keeley is great he always reply's to your emails I only have had one reply out of 8 that was to thank me for the order. Now I am searching for a linear pot to replace the log pots as I have just come back from rehersal and adjusting the volume with my big toe I need more range in the POT. Sorry Keeley but the pedal sounds great but I can't understand how you can send it out like this. Can somebody send me in the right direction to source a linear pot ?
Cheers

If you know the value, take a look in local stores, I think they have the pots. Ask for mini pots, they are smaller and cheaper, if they don't have ask for common pots. Or maybe Small Bear.

Here they costs R$1.50 ($0.50 in dollars). The common pots costs R$5.00 here ($1.70 in dollars).
