Bad Cat Lynx Head 50w EL34 2-Channel Amplifier
The Lynx has two distinct channels and a massive 7 gain stages. Channel 1 is classic high gain which covers gritty clean to 80’s metal tones. Channel 2 is modern high gain with a massive sonic footprint yet it always remains articulate and revealing. Further, it has been reengineered with a Lo/Hi switch to access
a new type of gain stage topology not yet found in any other amplifier from Bad Cat. The Lynx is loaded with percussive, heavy, tight saturation and incredible string to-string note definition. Lastly, a highly effective, uniquely designed noise gate - patent applied for - is included along with a buffered active effects loop to run all of your pedals transparently.
From the beginning, the new Lynx was designed to be special and unlike anything else.
