I got this used ca. 2005 Bad Cat Trem Cat 30 around the end of the year. I haven't had too much time to play it yet, but I like it. My wife even thinks it's cute! Which means it can stay in the bedroom, replacing my Bandmaster Reverb (in Super Reverb guise) for now at least.
It's got an EF86 preamp, 4 x EL84 power section and reverb and trem. I got my first EF86-equipped amps (a 5-watt Winfield Typhoon and a 15-watt Winfield Cyclone) last year and have been digging those amps lately so was happy to get this one. On the Bad Cat, you can choose between the tone switch (selects different capacitors for mid-range), the active (I think) treble-bass tone stack, or both for a variety of tones.
