Cat's Ass
Battery Powered Amp


Garnet's answer to the popular Pignose battery powered amps is the famous "Cat's Ass". Another irreverent model name proved once again that Gar and his crew had a great sense of humour. If that wasn't provocative enough the initial run of units made for distribution at a US trade show had the dirty input jack placed in an anotomically correct position on the cartoon cat stenciled on the front. Needless to say it was a sensation! Despite moving the input to a less controversial place for production models many stores simply wouldn't carry these small amps based on the name alone.
