Bad Cat players series

Did anyone see the Bad Cat players series announced at NAMM?

I've been looking for a Voxy sounding amp and these look quite portable and the PCB construction brings the price into a more bearable range. Only other thing I can see different is they have a SS rectifier. Any other differences? I hope they're awesome, I want one.

They look very interesting. Depends what price we see them at over here, but they have a great spec.

Assuming they sound like the regular ones I'm fairly sure one of these will be my next amp

I'm a big fan of Bad Cats - but based on ones which have been in the classifieds recently - they have lousy residuals.

I think if I were looking to buy at the moment I wait to pick up a used 'full fat' version at the right price.

^ Nah, I'll just wait and picked up a used one of these!

Yes, they are a SERIOUS bargain used. My Black Cat has see off 3 Matchless' - or should that be Matchli..?!

I was expecting the UK price to be higher than that.

A brand new 40W Bad Cat head for under a grand!
