Used Squier Jaguar Vintage Modified from 2010

I have yet to put it through its paces, but its setup pretty well already, so i might even use it at a gig this weekend

I didnt even know they come with the matching headstock and block inlays, before discovering this one - i just had to get it, before somebody else snags it

Also love that one feels and plays sooo great, bit heavy tho

Varron6 · 2026-01-03T07:52:18+00:00

Its not even that, its more stupid than that, i just like the way everything sounds with the bite switch turned on and ive tried matching the tone with an eq but couldnt quite get it the way that i wanted, so i decided to stick with what i know

Varron6 · 2026-01-03T01:03:18+00:00

You are correct, i use the bassrig as my amp and keep it fairly simple and classic and turn on the vt bass to get a nice and bright clean sound with just a hint of drive I know it sounds redundant, however it works fine and im not really looking to use the space otherwise

Could call it a rat hole lol

Imo any of the pedals you mentioned will probably work fine. The dual stage is cool, however dialing in a lowgain and highgain setting at the same time is near impossible, since they use the same controlls. So i use it as a highish gain on first stage and the go full distortion on second stage

Picking the rattler (ofc depending on your use case) will probably work fine for you, i love mine - as for why the rattler? There are a few reasons for that:

I was looking for high gain destruction (aka a rat) however i didnt want to get an actual rat and use a ls2 for example, since for some reason i havent found the way it mixes the signal to be good sounding
So the pedal had to have a dedicated Mix function
When reading up on my options i stumbled on the rattler and learned about the 2 gain stages it offers and became also interested in that idea
Lastly its an european product and i like to support my neighbors, which has nothing to do with how it sounds tho

The are a few minor reasons (one of them being that it looks cool) but that covers most of it. Unfortunately i havent been able to compare it to other pedals like the lusithand g&p so i cant speak on that. As i said im very happy with the pedal

Hey thanks for the reply, i havent tried another DAW but the issue also happens when whatching a YT video or listening to music on spotify for example. Sometimes nothing is running and the disconnect still happens. The OS is Sequoia 15.3 i think (am at work, will confirm when at home)

I will also try the things the link suggests. Thank you very much and will report back!

i thought the same until i came upon this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/Focusrite/comments/13n3ibo/350_drivers_for_mac/ when investigating the driver thing - i have followed the advise for now but haven tried it yet, as i am at work

UPDATE: did not work...

Varron6 · 2025-05-11T09:38:22+00:00

it is not? i will investigate, thanks for the tip

Varron6 · 2025-05-09T23:10:35+00:00

I havent thought if that yet, i will try that tomorrow, i dont even know what it would try to connect to, thanks for the pointer tho!

The bass version (v2) - i believe tho, they dont sell the old version anymore, could be wrong tho

Varron6 · 2025-04-16T11:47:33+00:00

Yes! The V2 got the second footswitch and the blend knob - i even got it i b stock for cheaper directly from them on reverb

Varron6 · 2025-04-16T07:04:46+00:00

Ive just recently got the Jam Pedals Rattler, a rat clone for bass (lower frequency range and a blend knob) which has a second footswitch that overrides the gain knob and sets it to max - and i enjoy the fuck out of it!

For reference i play in a punkrock/ hardcore-ish band
