*SOLD* FS Bad Cat Hot Cat 30 Head + Custom Flight Case *SOLD*

What's Hot

edited August 2014 in Amps £
Couple of scuffs, but overall good condition 8.5/10.  Flight case is in fair-good condition 6.5/10.  Those ratings are on the 'harsh' side.  Silver sparkle finish.

Need to get this shifted so was 1200, then 1095 then £1050.... now priced to sell so.... £995!

Amazing amp with an extremely matchless-like clean sound (reminds me of a Chieftain's clean sound).  Dirty channel is excellent and you can get excellent David Grissom/Billy Gibbons like Rootsy rock.  This is the original Mark Sampson (original designer/founder of Matchless Amps) designed Hot Cat 30 so there is no reverb and no effects loop.  Although I believe this particular model was made after he finished his tenure with the company.  I think Steve Wilson (Porcupine Tree) used to use these too (now uses a Bad Cat Lynx which is even bigger and even louder - similar sound though).

Can meet people in Southampton or London (and possibly along the M3 at my convenience).  Any questions please don't hesitate to ask!

Stephen

    Thanks fellas! I'm probably going to regret it but I'm just not using it enough at the moment. Deserves a good home.

    meant to say also you can do some pretty clever stuff with this amp using an ABY box.  Either use it as a standard channel changer (and stick pedals after it if you only want them to affect one channel.... or stick it on 'Y' and blend both channels (try placing a volume pedal after the dirty side to blend in the amount of dirt with the clean channel on the fly!).

    good find! Nice when you have ready made demos available.  That one is pretty much the same age as mine too!

    Good point! Tone over gold though - that's what I say! (to loosely paraphrase a dire straits song title)
