Not sure why I want to go back to this. Maybe because this pedal is absolutely awesome. We had a guest post by Bobby Morelli about the Bad Cat 2-Tone which was extremely great, and I was just re-reading that today.
In my band, our other guitarist uses the Bad Cat 2-Tone in conjunction with a Matchless DC-30. It sounds amazing, and I’m a big fan of the tone from that pedal. To me, there is no other pedal that adds the meat or growl to your tone in a ‘natural’ way. It’s almost like another amp in itself.
My largest.. and I guess only complaint, is the noise. The pedal is noisy, but for heavier work (like what we play) you never notice anything except between songs, etc. The chassis is one of the beefiest I’ve ever seen, and they’re absolutely built to last.
I found this video that nicely describes what this guitar can do.
As with all things, quality does come with a price. This pedal runs around $349 at Musician’s Friend, but it is a pretty amazing pedal if you’re after some awesome tone. Anyone out there have the Bad Cat x-treme tone?
