  • The Cub was among the original Bad Cat designs - boutique and highly desired, it has been used on countless stages and recording sessions. Its original circuitry was simple and yet extremely versatile, offering punch and chime. It gained up smoothly and set the standard for touch responsiveness, establishing itself as a classic. Over the years, this amp’s design has been refined and improved. Every iteration brings something new to the table and the newest Bad Cat Cub is no exception.
    A single-channel amplifier now with two distinct gain modes, clean and overdrive. The original Cub circuitry has been further developed and is accessed in the clean mode on this amplifier. In this mode, the Cub Is capable of bright chiming, classic clean tones to smooth, touch-responsive edge of breakup. Switch the front panel toggle to overdrive mode to engage an additional tube gain stage for more harmonic content and complexity not found on prior Cub models. The new Cub also offers two switchable independent master volume controls that can be preset for lead and rhythm volumes. The Cub has been further expanded by adding a powerful midrange control, studio-quality reverb, and a fully buffered effects loop.
    You can understand why the Bad Cat Team is so excited to introduce the new Cub and how hard it was to stop playing it long enough to write this.

    Great demo!! I've been playing Bad Cat Cubs for well over 10 years with various Strats and I love them. Started out playing Cub 15R Handwired Combos and when they came out with Cub 40R USA Player Series, i switched to that platform for the additional head room and fidelity. Just as you said they are a great pedal platform and killer with a Strat. I'll be getting one of these new gems soon!! BadCat Amplifiers are the BEST!!

    Thanks for the show. Man, you are a riot! Such an entertainer. Props! This amp looks great. Like it's advertised "just what you need, and nothing you don't". Right up my alley. If my playing justified it I'd buy one right now. Well, plan on carrying the head in your store?

    Nate my brother! That amp is sick man. But your playin is smokin good too.
    And I love me some gravy on them taters,,lol but that was the Lynx, this is the Cub.
    And I am diggin. The versatility of tones you are pulling out from all of those pickup
    Variations. Excellent video’s no doubt a Bad Cat is on my path for the future. But as to
    Which one. All the Cats bring a unique flavor to the table. I think I am going to be a pedal man.
    So the Cub may be my choice. But I am sure digging them all. Best of wishes to Nash as well!
    You guys rock!

    • @naterevolution
      @naterevolution Рік тому

      Great question! Instead of the EF86 preamp tube option there is a new gain circuit that is foot switchable. To my ears its almost like having a really great tube screamer type pedal built into the amp. Check it out: 2:38

    Is this their "voxy" model? Like the black cat once was? I'm confused what these are trying to be besides decent sounding amps

    • @naterevolution
      @naterevolution Рік тому

      No, the Blackcat is the more “Voxy/Matchless” sounding Badcat. The Cub is the “Swiss Army knife” of tones and probably the most unique to Badcat. 👍
