Bad Cat Lynx 2023 vs Wizard MCII 40w 

Both hit pretty hard, these were at moderate levels, the louder they get the more thump

In the long run it’s not even close. The Wizard is the most versatile amp I’ve owned. I’ve literally used a MTL MK2 in a GD cover band. Nobody talks about the clean tones of these amps

This is boosted

​@@wizardsouthJP oh ! I guess the KSR Ares is almost the only amp that chugs without a pedal

@@anahowana there's plenty of mine that will chug without a boost, I just don't set mine up that way. If I did I'd need to add some presence, less bass, more treble etc. Boost/OD pedals are more about feel - not just using on amps that won't chug on their own. I don't generally buy amps that won't get some level of heavy tone - it's gotta deliver the chug!

@@anahowanamark v,uberschall,jvm, like tons of amps don’t need a boost , it’s about your guitar pickups and string and pick attack in the end

This is into a V30/Creamback 75 plus the Orange 212 with V30’s

Both amps were boosted - neither amp necessarily "needs" a boost to get mean - the Lynx does surprisingly well. thanks

@@wizardsouthJP Oh okay. I didn't know you were also boosting the Wizard.

Definitely, the Lynx does a lot and has a cool vibe for lower gain tones, although I wasn’t going for low gain here 😁

Got a Jet Black on the way after some back and forth with Peter, should be a good addition - thanks Jon for sharing your thoughts on this vid.

@wizardsouthJP Did you get the Jet Black yet? I have also been looking at it. Wondering if you will post a a demo of it.

@@christopheralexander4359 I posted a Short for a quick test. Check it out - it’s a killer amp
