Incredible boutique Vox/Matchless tones. EF86 and 12AX7 channels feeding 15 class-A watts (two EL84s) and tastefully seasoned with studio-grade reverb. The master volume control (patented "K-Master") is truly useful at all volume levels. Sounds great with all pickup types - the Cut and Fat controls are great for compensating between different guitars. Channel selection and Fat switch on/off can be controlled via footswitch (not included).
Comes with custom Studio Slips clamshell case with double padding, side handles, top duffle handle, accessory pocket, and leather bottom (cost $230).
For a complete rig, see my Matchless ESS112 1x12 Cabinet ($650). It is an excellent all-around cabinet but especially perfect for the Bad Cat given its Matchless heritage. It sounds and feels more like a 2x12. This is the newer model with Matchless’s treated Celestion Creamback (G12H-75). Road case available for additional $250.
All items in excellent condition and stored in non-smoking, climate controlled home studio.
