Guitar amplifier (head) Bad Cat Lynx Head

The Bad Cat Lynx Head is a modern tube guitar amplifier built for players seeking tight, fast response with crystal clarity—even under extreme gain. Powered by two EL34 tubes in a fixed-bias Class AB configuration, it delivers 50 watts of power with exceptional accuracy and detail.

This amp features two independent channels with separate Gain and Volume controls, allowing for a wide tonal range from smooth crunch to aggressive high gain. The unique Lo/Hi Gain switch lets players explore new gain stage topologies never before seen in a Bad Cat amp, unlocking fresh tones and textures.

Global controls for Bass, Mid, Treble, Presence, and Master offer fine-tuned tone shaping, while an integrated adjustable noise gate (patent pending) ensures a clean signal even at maximum gain. The buffered effects loop guarantees seamless integration with pedalboards without sacrificing tone.

Designed and hand-built in Southern California, the Bad Cat Lynx Head is the ideal choice for modern guitarists demanding high gain precision, articulate response, and total control.
