The lineage of the Black Cat goes all the way back to the
original boutique amplifier designed and hand-crafted in
Southern California. It was overbuilt and overspec’d, made to be
the sonic successor to one of the most legendary and coveted
amps from the early 1960s.
Now Bad Cat has gone back to the drawing board. The
inspiration for the new Black Cat was to deliver on the original
promise. We set out to capture all that is magical about the
original designs but utilizing modern engineering and
manufacturing advances to fit the needs of the modern player.
The new Black Cat features two unique channels with bias-
modulated tremolo and studio quality reverb. Channel 1, a more
traditional Black Cat sound, is bright and clear without being
harsh. Highly responsive and complex in midrange character,
it delivers the sound you know and expect from this amplifier
design. Channel 2 has all of the complexity and chime of
channel one but with plenty of gain on tap, while preserving our
signature string-to-string note definition.
The new Black Cat is subtle and beautiful - an achievement in
timeless tone.
