RATs are all made in the USA.

But why do you care? It's not like people in China, Japan and Mexico can't make good products - they clearly can.

Robert "Crispy" Keeley won't mod Rats with serials post-300000, which yours is well within, due to "issues with quality". Mike's Rat mods are much better anyhow.

Weird, all the RATs I've worked on are US made.

Anyway, that Keeley is complete B.S - he's clearly just not wanting to do the mod stuff anymore.

just recive answer from proco support
"Your pedal is definitely made in the USA. It was built some time in the early 90s. Unless it was modified, it would have the original LM308 chip.
My understanding is that China made Rat are, generally speaking, serial # 300000 and above"
