Description
The Bad Cat Lynx 50W tube guitar amp head was designed for modern high-gain players. It delivers a tight, low frequency that punches and reacts quickly to staccato palm muting, high frequencies that cut without being harsh or grainy, and effective mid-range shaping with complexity and articulation. The Lynx amp head has two distinct channels—Channel 1 is classic high gain, spanning gritty and crunchy cleans to ’80s thrash-metal tones. Channel 2 is an ultramodern high-gain voice that has a massive sonic footprint, yet remains articulate and revealing. The Lynx is loaded with percussive, heavy, tight saturation and incredible string-to-string note articulation. It has a highly effective, patent-pending noise gate, along with a buffered active effects loop to run all your pedals transparently.

"Half magical or something"

After a lot of research I landed on the bad cat lynx. It sounds unlike anything else! All the controls have a huge range and the noise gate is so good it almost doesn't make sense! I purchased the matching 12x2 as well. As ola England said it's like "half magic or something"
