The Bad Cat Jet Black guitar amp is a two-channel, 38-watt mean machine loaded with four EL84 power tubes, three 12AX7 preamp tubes, 3-band EQ, bias-modulated tremolo and reverb. “Our Black Cat amp is typically a smooth-sounding template,” explains Bad Cat CEO and designer Peter Arends, “so what I was going for with the Jet Black was the rougher brother that’s targeted more towards the rock crowd.”
“The Jet Black is such a fun amp to play,” adds Marc Ford (Black Crowes, The Magpie Salute). “It has a pure voice, and it never sounds like it’s choking out. It’s also very open and expressive-you hear all the notes. The Jet Black listens to what you’re doing, and it’s there for whatever you’re doing on the guitar.”
The Bad Cat Jet Black is a road-hardened beast with a cabinet constructed from tough Baltic birch. The combo version includes a 12” Celestion Vintage 30 speaker, and both models (head and combo) are designed for versatility with a buffered effects loop, a line out (for reamping or using IRs), a two-button footswitch (tremolo on/off, channel changing) and a full complement of speaker outputs. Bad Cat amps are designed and built in Southern California.

Great sound

[@johnnyelvis]

I love this amp, i wasn't impressed with the new black cat, but in my opinion this is what the new black cat should have been, this is an awesome sounding amp. Personally I don't like digital reverbs on an amp but isn't a complete deal breaker.
