Rooted in Bad Cat’s iconic tonal history, the Cub V EL34 40w Head is an inspired fusion of vintage warmth and contemporary innovation. It offers a commanding 40 watts of power driven by EL34 tubes, producing the Cub’s distinctive rich tones, now enhanced with modern upgrades.

At the heart of the Cub V is the switchable EF86/12AX7 preamp tube feature, allowing you to explore tonal flexibility across styles and genres. Paired with a tube-driven spring reverb, the amp delivers a wide spectrum of sonic textures, from clean, glassy highs to dense, saturated overdrive, making it ideal for both recording and live performance.

Handcrafted in Southern California, each Cub V EL34 head is meticulously point-to-point soldered by expert engineers, showcasing exceptional quality and precision. The amp also features the brand’s reintroduced “Bad Cat eyes,” a design tribute to Bad Cat’s legacy and an unmistakable hallmark of its high-end craftsmanship.

Available as both a 15-watt EL84 or 40-watt EL34 model, the Cub V can be chosen in head or combo configurations, complete with a custom UK Celestion 12-inch speaker for unparalleled sound delivery.

A powerful blend of heritage and versatility, the Cub V EL34 40w Head is designed for musicians seeking both classic tone and modern capability, ready to transform your sound on any stage or in the studio.
