Bad Cat Ocelot

Inside the Ocelot’s precision-milled aluminum chassis are a pair of EL84 power tubes and three 12AX7 preamp tubes, delivering dynamic response with harmonic depth. You can knock the output down from 20 watts to 1 watt for late-night sessions without sacrificing tonal complexity. Both channels feature their own volume controls, complemented by shared Treble, Middle, Bass, Presence, and Master Volume knobs. A buffered effects loop rounds out the all-analog signal path, allowing seamless pedalboard integration.Built-In Two notes Torpedo Cab Sim with Internal LoadWhat truly sets the Ocelot apart is its built-in Two notes Torpedo system. Six custom Bad Cat DynIR cabinet presets come loaded onboard, along with a speaker load for silent operation. You get direct-to-PA and headphone outputs with full cabinet simulation, plus USB-C connectivity for firmware updates and cab management. Cab Level and MIDI input let you tweak your rig with studio-grade precision, whether you’re tracking at home or playing live.Heavy-Duty Construction, Road-Ready DesignDespite its size, the Ocelot is built to endure with a rugged aluminum chassis, durable top-mounted handle, and premium hardware throughout. Weighing just 12 pounds, it’s easy to transport but feels rock-solid under hand. A 2-button footswitch is included to control channel switching and gain mode selection on the fly. This amp doesn’t just play big—it feels big.Designed for Players Who Demand More from LessWhether you’re a gigging guitarist, session player, or tone chaser looking to streamline your setup, the Ocelot offers an ideal blend of simplicity, power, and flexibility. It’s vintage tube tone reimagined with the digital tools today’s players need—without compromise. Pair it with your favorite cab or run direct into a mixer with cabinet simulation—this head is ready for anything.SpecificationsOutput Power: 20 watts switchable to 1 wattTubes: 2 x EL84 (power), 3 x 12AX7 (preamp)Channels: 2 with independent volume, Hi/Lo gain modesEQ: Treble, Middle, Bass, Presence, Master VolumeFeatures: Built-in Two notes Torpedo cab simulation, six DynIR presets.
