NAMM 2015

To the RGS family, 

In the industry there is something that been deemed the "NAMM hangover". I am experiencing this for the first time. With the overdose of musical prowess, 92db of constant noise for 8 hours a day, weak hands from handshakes and high fives (that part is actually fun), and a slight stench of gym room still lingers in my world. With all that said, I can't say enough how incredible it was to hang out with those in the RGS family. Over the years our customers and manufacturers have resulted in much more than a business relationship. We know these people and they know us. We push them for new and exciting things and, in turn, they push us to do more. We were lucky enough to share meals and our love of gear with some of those that inspire us the most and whose words were timely and meant a lot. It was much more than hype and new gear at NAMM, it was coming full circle and rediscovering the truest reasons for why we do what we do. 

So over the next month we're going to translate all these moments that we've experienced with looking into some of those that we know well in the industry and show you a bit of what we discovered at NAMM 2015. 

This week we're going to look at BadCat Amplification and the stellar new product that they're releasing in about 6 weeks. 

BadCat Amps is a amplification company whose success just keeps on coming. Here is a little blurb from their site.

Bad Cat takes a 'no compromise' approach when designing and producing amplifiers. Our goal in each classic style, hand built amplifier is to achieve great tone and sturdy construction. Bad Cat Amplifiers are designed and built entirely in Southern California. Each step of this process is where the quest for perfection really begins. Our team gets really excited about what sets Bad Cat apart. We call it the 'Bad Cat Difference'. Meticulously paying attention to each component affecting the sound and performance of our amplifiers is a journey we love to undertake every day. Our users benefit from our passion every time they plug in and crank up their favorite Bad Cat amp. Since we also play what we build, it is truly gratifying for the Bad Cat Team to be a part of bringing each product to light.

We all know that when you offer such an incredible product you can still fall short without the customer and dealer support behind it. With BadCat Amps we've experienced some of the best support in the industry. Not only in the build quality of their amplifiers but in the relationship and customer service that they offer. They're a full circle company.

We're really excited for this new line up BadCat announced and showed off at NAMM 2015.
