Peace & Love
Seriously impressed with this little thing. The trick i found with it is to take it easy on the mid and treble, as it’s a small speaker it sounds better letting it produce its own high end
I bought one for one of my sons last week for christmas.. had a go & now I want to keep it! :)
For someone like myself that has been playing for a while (mostly acoustic) but didn't learn any scales, modes etc and just learned basic open chords from books and learned riffs/songs I wanted to play, would this amp be a good choice for going through lessons like Musicisum or similar? Only have a bog standard cheap strat type guitar but hopefully that won't cause too many issues. Cheers!
Holy shit Rabea, never get rid of that beard. You look so awesome man. You made such a huge change in so little time! Especially with the weight loss!
Rabea Massaad does it include the power supply?
Simon Gummer hi, you batteries with it, but you have to buy the power supply extra. Was about £22
Rabea gradually turning into the Bob Ross of guitar
Luke Wren cant stop laughing

Rob Boss?
@@LordBransty ...by Rob Boss's Rabeard..
Boss got their money's worth out of this video. They're going to sell a ton of these, thanks to Rabea.
True Words David.
Agreed, he's really become a great presenter. I remember watching Andertons 6-8 years ago and he was there as Chappers friend or bandmate and seemed maybe a little camera shy, but not now. Smashing dude fro sure.
Fro sure
He’s one of the most reliable , non-biased reviewers out there. Hell, I bought one today only because of his advice. Not disappointed at all. Good job Bea!
@@codyhilton1442 I bought 2 of them. :-) Use them every day.
This guy could make a transistor radio through a soup can sound good.
RIFFHANGER yeah, he's another Pete Thorn...
The face Rabea does when he thinks the amp is chunky always makes me want to buy the gear.
For a small amp. It sounded sooo heavy! Love it! Thank you!
Damn, that thing sounds great for what it is.
Had one for 3 months and love it. I’ve got 3 valve amps and a Kemper and this thing causes no offense whatsoever to my ears. In fact on any channel it has a really charming sound that makes you want to play....5 stars.
Ha! I’m currently playing my Katana Mini While watching a video about the Katana 2x12, while waiting for my Katana 2x12. Imagine my delight when your video came up so quickly!
I'm buying one of these for myself as a bedroom amp. Was either this one or the Blackstar Mini but I think I like this one better.
Genuinely think Boss have made something brilliant with the Katana series. Seem to have absolutely nailed it.
This. Pro tone at volume for
I had a Katana 50 MK2 and my cousin had a Mini and not gonna lie, I actually preferred the sound of the Mini at times. As soon as I got rid of my Katana fo my Marshall DSL40 Combo I bought a Katana Mini because it really is the best mini amp out there and it doesn't weigh 50 flipping pounds... XD
Rabea's playing from 6:35 onwards is amazing. Beautiful and yet very serious, dark etc. I love it!
It doesn't matter which amp it is.It's something about who is playing~Good job Rebea
Jun Chi
Dude not even Bea could make a Spider mini sound good
Either you're one of the worlds top ten audio engineers, or that is one impressive little box! I must try one. Well done Boss!
Fair play Rabea, that 61 Strat of yours might just be the best sounding Strat I've ever heard.
7:42 amazing riff..
Fantastic video! What is this riff 7.43.. Amazing playing and natural feel mate.
I swear, if there were anyone I'd wanna work on a song with, it'd be Rabea. I just vibe with his style and personality.
Hands down best demo. Although I'm sure Rabea could fall down a flight of stairs demoing a product and still sound killer.
I literally use this everywhere. It’s my favorite amp of all time.
Temu has a switch jack for 2.00....install it. It will defeat the small speaker when you plug and external speaker into it. Will in crease the volume and do away with the problems of a small speaker.....use a speaker that's higher or = to 4 ohms. A 8" speaker or bigger.
3:19 loved the funk riff
By the end of No Shave November your beard will have achieve Merlin status! lmao
Loved that dark/beautiful chord progression you had going on when you first picked up the fender
Literally buying a Katana 50 this Sunday. Fell in love with it when I tried it over Blackstars and Peaveys. Glad to hear you're dealing with Boss for some videos!
Rabea, like watching your videos just to hear you play! Cool little amp. I just went and got one for warm ups, playing outdoors, and when traveling. Thanks for great demo!
BOSS makes great stuff! I really love to play it 😍
You nailed the Katana with words "fun & easy". Thats exactly why it become so popular me thinks... and... it sounds good to! 😉
picked one up today and I couldn't be happier.
The sound of that little thing is phenomenal. There 's real music coming out of that box. I just love being surprised. And your versatile playing is perfect for testing it. If there were any flaws they would have been audible, but I didn 't hear any. Thumbs up and thanks for sharing.
I recently ran my Helix into the Aux In on this thing and I was amazed how well it did for practice. I encourage everyone to try running modellers into the Aux In like this.
I have a question, does the "headphonds/rec out" really work?
Beacause nobody seems to talk about it, and I need an amp with headphones for quiet practice
@@siccbastard4580 Yes it does - it applies a Cab Sim on the record out so it doesnt sound like balls :)
@@GabrielNacu nice thanks :)
What a great idea. I’ll have to try that on my LT!
@@BillMWirth See how it goes! I dont have a Boss Katana Mini anymore but I have done the same tactic on my Yamaha THR and it works! Anything with an Aux in works as its less coloured then going into the Input with a Helix :)
Rabea always delivers the best gear reviews. I bought my JVM410 because of him.
I make cigar box and oil can guitars, and I've been looking for a small amp to keep in the shed and test what I make. This seems perfect and cheap.
i bought a bluetooth adapter and plugged it into the aux jack..viola! BLUETOOTH!.. ( Great for lo volume shredding/ practice... i only use the brown sound for shredding.).. CAN get kinda loud..but really don' t need it to. I use the bluetooth adapter to shred to youtube backing tracks..love this thing ( my main rig is a Kemper..through a Friedman monitor..lol)
I just purchased one of these a few weeks ago brilliant amp
Nice video, sir. Always good to see your smiling face. I love to hear you play on your own. It's great to watch you playing bluesy and Jazzy chords. I think you make any amp sound good, but that Boss Mini looks fun. Keep fighting the good fight!
Great demo ! I've had a first gen Micro Cube for over 10 years and love it. More voicing options but I typically just use 2. Black Panel and Classic Stack. Chorus/reverb/delay set but this has a three band EQ.
If I didn't have that amp i'd want this. Micro's pretty great though.
backing the mic away was brilliant. More a 'room listening' environment. Sounded nice.
I rarely enjoying rhythm playing since evh. Bea, you're my new idol...
Just got mine today. Not disappointed in the slightest. Awesome for a little mini amp.
Wish I had something like that praccy amp when I was a kid!
So on the strength of your demo I’ve gone and bought one for my little lads 10th Birthday 👍😀
A box of win!!
The guys at Boss are probably sitting in high backed chairs, twiddling their fingers and maliciously grinning because they can now make ANY product they want and Rabea will make it sound good to us filthy casuals.
yeah but the boss katana mini amp really does sound good, amazingly good for its size, keep in mind this amp is competing with micro orange, evh mini amp and the marshal mini amp and the fender mini tweed amp, and the blackstar fly3, and it does a wonderful job at smoking any of those amps right out of the water, it even sounds better then that stupid full size 10 watt academy amp my dad bought for me 10 years ago
I didn't think it sounded that good honestly 😂 boss does make good products I just don't understand the hype behind these katanas I've heard one in person too my buddy has one and it doesn't sound like it does in this video
I’m waiting for mine to be delivered tonight. I’ve wanted one for ages and plan to use it to warm up before gigs and for teaching.
Sounds immense for it's size. Well done BOSS!
Rocking that bea rd.
Only Rabea could make that things sound that good.
Excellent review! 4 years vintage but still excellent!! This little amp is on my 'to purchase' list! Thank you for posting this video!
I wasn't sure from some of the other review videos, but this demo made me place my order. Thanks man : )
That is one lovely PRS you have there!
crunch with humbuckers sounds like Dream Theater. damn i want this amp so bad for my minimalistic gaming setup holyshie.
Very cool chords progression during the clean sounds demo. Thanx!
Sounds great, they took Blackstar Fly 3 concept and sized it up a tad. Would love to hear them side by side.
bancika here is just that video: ua-cam.com/video/5yyl5PyjjaY/v-deo.html
They both sound great to be fair. Especially with the booster circuit in the Fly 3 ;)
cool, thanks! I love my Fly 3, modded it to have 4 channels using discrete JFET booster, added speaker extension jack...booster in the front really makes it shine. Both clean and overdrive channels sound great when pushed harder.
I don't know if it's just the grade on the video but I LOVE your brass/copper tail and tuning pegs on the strat. *italian belissimo kiss*
It's real good Amp not only 4 exercise but for recording too.
ive got a boss katana 50 i love it so much for my first amp
Theø damn rich kid
Professor Brand I'm 18 and used my own money, but thanks
Professor Brand The katana 50 is very affordable
MegaCrasherMusic is "damn rich kid" supposed to be offensive?
enle7es yeah it's a rich kid amp now, sorry haters
I have it and I love it, great sound and takes pedals very well.
I'm currently learning guitar on an acoustic and I'm looking into getting an electric, having not much money to spare this seems like a great choice! Thanks for the video
That prs is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen
I love neck pickup on that Strat!
So glad I bought this for myself on my birthday. Loved playing with it everyday! Great review video to!
I have a Spark and Spark Mini and they're such a headache to use that I'm considering one of these. Oh - and I have a Katana 100 (first gen). It's amazing.
Fuck. I couldn't sound like that even through the Katana 100 watt. Rabea can make anything sound good
Great review Rabea. Your presenting and review skills really have come on leaps and bounds the last few years. Would you be able to do a quick video with this amp but with a lower end starter style guitar like a classic vibe strat, Tele, Jackson or ibanez HH so we can hear what lower end stuff sounds like through it. Cheers buddy!
Got one and it’s perfect for home,travel, love Boss got a looper too. Great playing Rabea. 💯🔥🕉✌️
This looks great for me cause I can't play loud in my house.
This video made me go order one. Can't wait for it to arrive!
Great demo, Dig the beard and that PRS is a beauty !
Fantastic little amp. I am still leaning towards the blackstar fly3 and extension speaker though. I will use it for computer speakers and jamming and learning in front of my laptop with the ultimate simplicity and groovy tones. Wish the little katana had an extension speaker.
Hey man, what a sound did you get...It's impressive how it sounds in any situations. But I need to congratulate you about this video, cause you played good enough to explain us. Thank u so much!
Great demo and what an amazing sounding amp! I just bought one for my dad for he can play at home
This sounds soo hugeee and its so cheap and small, jeeez well done BOSS!
The Katana mini sounds better than his big brothers. I've sold them all, and kept the little one :-)
I love this more than my Blackstar Fly 3!
Does he tune his guitar differently? It sounds so nice!!!
Those riffs at the end, so tasty... Dude you are THE best guitarist of the moment
hope the knee is well. speedy recovery
Ra Beast!! Great demo this amp is so much fun I love it
Great demo and review. Boss Katana Mini is the Boss.
You could probably plug your guitar into a transistor radio and make it sound awesome with your playing. Nice review!
It sounds great to my ears, but I'd really like to know what makes the Katana Mini so much better, technology-wise, than older analogue solid-state amps, that were generally despised? 🤔🤷🏻♂️
Rebea, are you growing a beard by chance because of John Petrucci telling you that you needed to grow one for his challenge at Thomann?
This and Ola's video have sold it for me. Great video ya ruggedly handsome galoot!
I was watching this video to see the amp I ordered a few days ago, then this amp shows up at my door as I'm watching this video! So I just took it out of the box and played around with it. My first impression is that it is light, has a nice build quality, the knobs are nice and have good tension, inputs are nice, and works fine with the batteries. The clean, crunch, and brown channels work, and the amp is responsive to the guitar pickups. You can't seem to go full volume on the amp and still get a clean sound, but you just have to play with the knobs and you guitar to get what you want, like most things. This amp can get pretty loud but I think it works better if not pushed to full volume. Over all I agree that this is a nice little practice amp and for what it is it works well. Head phones work well too. If you need or want such an amp this it a good one.
Wow great tones! Amazing thing, thanks Bea!
Can you please do a video on how we can achieve your awesome rhythm tone using a Katana 50 or 100?
Enis LEBLEBICI I second this.
Third it.
Fourth it.
eq pedal in the l0o0op of an amp and push the 1st bass lever up makes a 1 by 12 sound like an 8 by 12
Awesome chords in the first thing you played on the strat!!
I have the 50 watt, great bedroom/rehearsal amp for the price. This little thing is fucking amazing for what it is. Rabea you kill it man.
I'm sold!!
Lovin' your playing, dude. Good meter, and feel.
Great price too. Nice demo Rabbea
Whats the riff from 7:30 ish onwards? Or is that just noodling. Anyways great vid and review mate!
Hey Rabea!!!! LOVE the beard keep growing it out!!!!
Thoroughly impressed with your demo, but very sad you didn't pull out your Baritone! It's one of your trademarks!
Estupendo revision
Another great video. Thanks for taking the time to make it. Great sound (video sound as well as amp audio). I think I'm gonna go ahead and hit that little subscribe button now. :)
this does sound pretty impressive for the size and cost, but to be fair, you could scrape a pick across the bottom of your shoe and it would sound metal AF
seriously sounds extremely impressive.
Damn, sounds great! Cheers Rabea.
The beard is signifying that rabea is soon to become a true guitar legend
I really love that amp. Bloody expensive here in Philippines. Deym.
Good work reviewing it Bea. :)
