"Yes we definitely had an issue with our transformer supplier on the first batch. They made two mistakes that we weren’t able to catch until the amps were already shipped. We have since been replacing units and reaching out with repair centers and users to fix the issue"
They did sound great but it was quite stressful to have a brand new amp constantly blowing fuses before smoking and totally blowing to get it replaced with another doing exactly the same! I thought I was going mad! I had to call my tech and checked all the electrics in the house to make sure I was not doing anything wrong.
Yet, I'd still like to try a Hot Cat!

the hotcat is fantastic though. Done a few gigs with it now and it absolutely sings..
I bought a Black Cat over the weekend after planning to buy one of another couple of amps. The others were fine… but plugged into the Bad Cat and was so impressed bought that instead.
I know these have had QC issues so just wondering if there’s anything I should be checking? Read the comments about a discoloured transformer (not sure where that lives - do I need the chassis out?) and something to do with the trem/foot switch not working. Anything else I should be checking to see if I have one of the earlier ones with issues? Trying to do some sort of due diligence whilst I have the opportunity to get the shop to deal with the problems!
Cheers in advance.
