About this listing
The award-winning Hot Cat was introduced in 2005 to great accolade. Over time, subtle refinements were made, and the awards kept coming. As pleased as we are with the original, the time has come for a whole new Hot Cat. We took everything we have learned over the last 20 years and applied it to this cutting edge reimagining of the Hot Cat.Channel 1 features the signature Bad Cat sparkling clean tone with brilliant highs and abundant lows. Channel 2 is a flame throwing high-gain channel with extraordinary string-to-string note definition and rich harmonic content. We added a Lo/Hi selectable gain switch allowing Channel 1 to offer huge amountsof clean headroom or drive into 70’s-like crunch tones and everything between. In Channel 2, you can now toggle between two distinct flavors of gain from crunchy blues to metal. The gain combinations on the new Hot Cat are virtually limitless.Also new to the Hot Cat is studio quality reverb, custom-tuned to work flawlessly with each channel. Additionally, we have added a completely transparent, buffered effects loop that will work with both digital and analog effects. The new two-button footswitch allows toggling between channels and the Lo/Higain mode settings, offering four distinct tones all from one footswitch.Specifications:45W - 2x EL34 in fixed bias class AB configuration2 channels, each featuring LO and HI gain modesChannel-dedicated GAIN and VOLUME controlsGlobal BASS, MID, TREBLE, MASTER, and PRESENCEcontrolsStudio quality reverbBuffered effects loopLine-level output4x 12AX7 preamplifier tubesSilicon diode rectifierCustom hand-wound Bad Cat transformers2x 4Ω, 2x 8Ω, 1x 16Ω speaker outputsBaltic birch ply cabinetFactory finish: black vinyl, black-and-silver grille, silverpipingBacklit logo plateCompact footswitch included - channel selection and gainmode selectionPadded slip cover with embroidered logo includedAccess CHANNEL 1/2 and LO/HI gain mode selection via the included footswitch1x12 COMBO w/UK-made Bad Cat custom CelestionVintage 30 speaker - W 23.75” × H 19.00” × D 10.25”,47.00lb5 years non-transferable warranty on amplifier and cabinet, 3 years on speakers, and 6 months on tubesHand-built in Costa Mesa, CA USA
