This intro shows up the rock flow in your veins! As a Guitarrist, when you see someone playing with that sense of ease and flow, denotes talent and mastery! Happy holidays
Bad Cat is a great, little company. I remember them sending me pictures of my 5-watt Mini Cat II being built. Somehow it made the amp more "mine". I doubt I'll ever part with it. Awesome playing as always, Mr. Thorn! 🙂
Great review Pete! Recently, I went down to Angel City Guitars and picked up a Bad Cat Cub. Totally dig it. I’m liking the Jet Black also! Great original tones and sustain from these newer iterations that Bad Cat has put out. Peter (not Thorn) is behind these crazy new tones. The Ampete guy….spoke with him at Angel City. Cool cat designing Bad Cat’s.
Played this at the Namm booth......unreal! Through their 3 x 12 cab was just insane....one of the things I look for is how it feels under fingers......this amp has the thing! feels great to play.
Cub, hot cat, lynx, black cat, I want them all! A lot of my unused gear is ready to get listed, getting some of these bad boys is kind of a new year resolution!
Pete's videos are deceiving, because he could plug into a toaster and make it sound like the Holy Trinity signing lullabies to a sleeping baby. Dude is a living legend.
Got a chance to play though this -- I like it a lot -- still thinking about it. I have a Lynx 50 I bought new in '08 that to this day is still my favorite amp. The new Bad Cat line of amps are def cool sounding, but they have cut corners in overall build quality for sure. Not even close the the Sampson-era builds and ones that came shortly after. Playing the SuperUnknown riff -- so good, I love that tune.
Dang!! Awesome playing... Think i will try a different instrument now lol. How clean are the cleans compared to fenders and voxs? Someone told me that have similar voicings to a mesa not sure how true that is.
I have a Bad Cat Cub II Mark Sampson designed, American made, hand wired, point to point, 1x12 combo and it continues to sound awesome 20 years later!!
Everyone is jealous. They like the ones with all the plastic everywhere. Nowadays they love themselves some plastic on the front and back of their new BadCat amps.
Sounds great, but that Trainwreck Liverpool you demonstrated awhile back just ruined me for rock-voiced EL84 amps….but at least this amp is attainable $$$
"it's not a thrash metal amp" nothing against super thick saturated tone but I can turn a hard rock amp into a chunky screaming metal amp with.góod power tubes and a heavy pedal but when i play my Peavy 5150 i can do heavy, ridiculously heavy or nothing. I will take my Super Lead or Bass Breaker or black star club 40 any day if i need to cover a wide range of tones including super distorted chunky tight power chord rhythms and screaming saturated leads with sustain.
I am stunned at the amount of PLASTIC located on the back panel of that amp! What is up with that? The panel itself and all the input hardware is PLASTIC! Cheap bullshit plastic. I think they make some cool sounding amps - but all that plastic has got to go. It’s cheap garbage.

Thank you! 🎄
DUDE.. That intro jam is EPIC!! Some of the best playing I've seen on any TH-cam channel. Thank you!!
Nicely done @Petethorn!! I ended up getting the 25th anniversary model with the Cream Back speaker. MY favorite Badcat NOW!!!!!!
That intro was literally out of this world! Happy Christmas Pete 🎉

100% balls to the walls sounds! Great demo Pete! Greetings from Santa Clarita! Merry Christmas and let's have a great 2024!
AMAZING tone and chops Pete! Merry Christmas to you sir!
Wow, amazing intro song! I think someone suggested on a Sunday live to release your intro songs in a collection; great idea!
Beautiful amp and beautiful playing makes for a beautiful musical experience. God bless you Peter Thorn.
Holy hot shit that intro was on fire! Some of your best yet Pete!
Thanks!
Excellent demo , this amp reminds me of my Mesa Maverick with EL84s . One of my favourite for a warm responsive rock fusion tone

Man Pete! Furious playing on that tune!!

Cub, hot cat, lynx, black cat, I want them all! A lot of my unused gear is ready to get listed, getting some of these bad boys is kind of a new year resolution!
Thanks again Wow Pete is a Bad Cat on guitar and that amp sounds huge
Can’t wait till your next album comes out Pete!! Your playing is next level!!
Great video, such a versatile amp! Thank you Pete and Merry Christmas from New Brunswick Canada.
Merry Christmas!
Pete's videos are deceiving, because he could plug into a toaster and make it sound like the Holy Trinity signing lullabies to a sleeping baby. Dude is a living legend.
Holy crap Pete what did you have for breakfast this morning you're on fire man!
Awesome thx Pete!
Sounds wonderful 🤘🎸🎄
Synergy and bad cat should do some modules together, this and the lynx
That Les Paul Custom is to die for!
God I hate Les Paul's hahaha too heavy over rated , corny and ugly
@@randym3982 cool man
@@lsraudio sorry for the rant , guess that's been pent up for awhile and finally had to come out hahaha
Awesome tune and playing!

Man YOU'RE a Rocker!
The Jet Black sounds great, another cool Bad Cat amp. Awesome choices these day.
I would really like a TH-cam of your process of laying down the tracks for this stuff.
The new floyd suhr is killer 😎 as is the vid and playing as usual 👌

Bad Cat has knocked it out of the park with their new line of amps!
rightey. i kno youre a suhrchild, but please, pretty please: could you bring out that guild s1 more often and do some soundgarden riffs? please?
Your a bad cat, suhr 😂🤘 some people are born for music and your a great example of that. That instrument is an extension of you and it shows.
Incredible riffs Pete….sounds stellar….
Hi Pete youre a Master i love youre reviews ¡ 🤟✌🎸
That FU Tone is sounding great
Dang!! Awesome playing... Think i will try a different instrument now lol. How clean are the cleans compared to fenders and voxs? Someone told me that have similar voicings to a mesa not sure how true that is.
supercool intro 😎👍
Is this vid about the Bad Cat or that sick new sparkle shred machine?!
I have a Bad Cat Cub II Mark Sampson designed, American made, hand wired, point to point, 1x12 combo and it continues to sound awesome 20 years later!!

Epic
☆Very nice intro ☆
Really cool sounding amp I just can't ever find Myself using a built-in tremolo or reverb, given all of the pedals Out There and my digital stuff.
And wearing a shirt from Newfoundland and Labrador! :D
That sparkle suhr is smexy
Damn Pete! You got chops…
I support this behavior.
The Superunknown is now known! Thanks...
Isn't this the amp that Steven Wilson uses?!
Nothing to see here. Just another album track! Have a great holiday Pete!
Thank you, you too!
You should get a bridge Thornbucker on that Suhr…. Oh wait … ;)
Alive...in the Superunknown!
Sounds great, but that Trainwreck Liverpool you demonstrated awhile back just ruined me for rock-voiced EL84 amps….but at least this amp is attainable $$$
🤘😎🤘

Christ Pete. Save some playing for the rest of us! :) I always thought BadCat amps sounded great.
Sounds amazing. $2200 is more than I’m willing to spend, unfortunately.
It's great, but I like Bad Cat Linx better. More chuggy.
