FS: Bad Cat Hot 30 Handwired Head-$1,100

Post by Lukeburke1 »

***EDIT: I have an opportunity for a big NAD today, so offering a fire sale price on this. If nobody takes it by the end of the week, I’m taking it to a local shop.

2015 handwired Bad Cat Hot Cat 30 head. 30 watts Class A with two EL34s (cathode bias). Non- reverb mode. Clean channel goes from pristine to crunch, and Lead channel gain ranges from crunch to high gain. Both channels feature Bad Cat’s K-Master volume.

The amp shows some slight cosmetic wear, but is in very good condition overall. It works well, and the logo still lights up when powered on. Power tubes were recently replaced with TAD EL34STR Red Base tubes, and the preamp tubes have only seen light use at home. Has a Tungsol 12AX7 in V1, a NOS JAN GE 5751 in V3, and a Yellow Jacket YJR solid state rectifier in the rectifier tube socket (I will include a rectifier tube with it).

Does NOT include a footswitch, but works with any generic single-button 1/4” footswitch.

Asking $1,100. Located in the Pittsburgh, PA area, but would drive a few hours for a meet-up. Would prefer not to ship, but may consider if buyer covers cost. NO TRADES

Quick and sloppy iPhone clip. Cab is a Janice Cabs 2x12 loaded with Creamback 65s. First half is straight into the amp, and the second half is boosted with an Xotic BB Preamp

Bump with a price drop. Hoping to raise funds in case anyone here sells a 2204 soon ;)

This is a great amp btw. I am not selling/trade any Marshalls at the moment but I wish I could buy it.

Bump with one last price drop. If it’s not gone by the end of the week, it’s going to a local shop
