The simple single channel preamp is based on the EF86 side of the Wild Cat. It has a 40W, EL34 based power section, running in class A. The control panel consist of the classic Bad Cat preamp: volume, five-way selector, bass, treble, cut and a master volume that can be switched out of the circuit. The Stella offers an EF86 front end for all of the sweet grind and chime that you have come to know as the classic Bad Cat sound. Combine this with the full force of the two EL34 's running in class A and you have a pure single channel amp capable of going from sweet ringing chime, to full force roar with a change in pick attack. The Stella was made custom for touring artist James Duke and was just so good we had to offer it to everyone. Let us make one for you.
