Bad Cat make great stuff -- I've owned a few -- Hot Cat a Panther and still own the original version of the Lynx 50. My favorite amp of all time. Bought a head with matching 2x12 back in '09. Their new line looks quite good -- this one and the new Lynx. Congrats on becoming a dealer.
I'm a Marshall, Orange and Magnatone guy. Magnatone amps have really been good to me even more than my UK amps. This Badcat intrigues me even though it's el84 like the Magnatones I own. It would be cool to have another new head to add to the ever growing collection
No doubt, killer tones and fender can’t possibly have ever even made an amp that came close to sounding this good no doubt fender and Marshall came up with great great ideas and great amplifiers that have served a world over but like everything else I am a vintage tone monster, but the truth is the hand wired amps we can have today versus the hand wired amps of yesterday. In my opinion there is no doubt my Friedman Box 50 is a better plexi than Marshall super league however we have come a lot of miles since 1959. This is no fender. It is definitely a beast and because of this video when I watched it the first time I just wanted to thank you guys, I was watching it again because I got my bad cat black cat 32 days ago. This is the first time I’ve stopped playing long enough to really do anything serious according to my wife, but I wanted to thank you guys for the kick ass demo and selling me on the app great investment thank you 14:04
Currently offloading a lot of gear to fund one of these to go with my new CS Jazzmaster. One stellar guitar and one stellar amp > 3 good guitars and one good amp for me.
I'm getting ready to buy my first tube amp.Been playing Fender/Positive Grid/Boss Katana for the last 3-4 years. Was looking into the Marshall Studio Series and Mojo Tone Black series. The Black Cat just entered the contest for me. NGL, Coopers' playing of that gorgeous Custom Shop Tele Thinline ain't hurting the Bad Cat one bit! Gonna have to learn those jams myself - so cool.
The blues Jr sounds a little thinner and sparkly, and the black cat sounds thicker and creamier. I fell in love with the neck pick up played clean on the blues Jr, but the black cat overdriven sounds like a baddie. 🔥
Clear and warm cleans and full overdriven tones. I use a BJ4 and the Bad Cat is clearly a better sounding amp. This is the first I’ve heard about these amps and you have certainly piqued my interest!
hey guys . ive come to really appreciate your opinion on guitars. if I have a question about a future purchase, is there anywhere I can send it for you guys? would love to know!
I'm skeptical. With any redesign it's not for the customers benefit. It's for cost efficiency. There's no way they made them better built. Cheaper boards. Shit component layout. I wish these reviews touched on that.
Same here man, I love the sound but I worry about the layout being too cramped making repairs costly just cause it's a bitch to work in. I need to see it under the hood before I buy.
I think people read to much into that. I have the latest Cub 30 and it's one of the best amps I've ever played. I've owned Matchless, Vintage, you name It. It's not really fair to critique a piece of gear that you haven't tried.

Always a fan of Cooper’s playing. Purchased a Jazzmaster because of him. Now I’m gassing for this amp and a thinline tele! Thanks dudes.

Teriffic playing on the demo, to show the better quality of the Badcat, and the best demo of a blues junior I have heard , it sound quite good.

That bad boy is the cat’s meow!

I have the previous version of the Cub, and it finds it's way on a lot of tracks in my studio. However, I would REALLY like that Black Cat!
I must say, that is a beautiful Tele and Cooper is a magician. I watched closely with his fingers never leave his hands.
It's called a CooperGreenberg magic fingers crush. I have one too.
@mydragon2356 I really liked the Telecaster but he does play very well. I play acoustic guitar daily and I rarely play electric but that is beautiful.
Wow, that guitar was the star. I will stick with my tried and true Deluxe Reverb.
My favorite amps. My Cub III R 25w is outstanding and part of the handwired series.

Thanks for the video! Could you do a comparison video between the Black Cut & Cub?
Really digging that Kenny Wayne shepherd strat
🤠
I prefer the black cat through a closed back however either way, Bad Cat has hit it out of the park with this one…
The Bad Cat has a much more hifi sound! 👍👍
I plan on having a bad cat but I do miss the eyes.
When deciding head and cab or combo keep in mind the combo weighs 49lbs. My old back doesn't like that heavy of a combo.
Nice amp! Tell me about the guitar. Tele with P90’s?
IMO I think this combo has the best overdrive tone across any combo amp.
Hey Chris,,,,,Is TAYLOR better than Bat Cat.?? lol
hey guys . ive come to really appreciate your opinion on guitars. if I have a question about a future purchase, is there anywhere I can send it for you guys? would love to know!
you can easily message us on the website. Cooper and I both typically see all of those messages - Chris
The Bad Cat sounds softer than the Fender Jnr.

Can you identify the guitar????
Looks like an Artisan Maple Burl Dual P90 Tele from Fender's Custom Shop.
You want small volume unique amps you need to stock Traynor tube amps from Canada……
Thats one baaaaad cat
New badcat isn't the same anymore!! & how can u compare those 2 amps. Wow
First view, first like, first comment. The trifecta! (PS : cool amp!)
Your parents are going to be so proud of you!!
Flubby bottom end with brittle top end No thanks
New cost cutting line up is FAIL.
Fender amps are built so poorly ! Bad Cats are great not harsh and musical.
