    Great video! Still can't believe they don't make the 50 to have all footswitch options! Just because someone wants a more compact combo amp doesn't mean we want to lose functionality.

    • @GuitarZero2Hero
      @GuitarZero2Hero  2 роки тому +7

      Yeh it’s a shame I agree as most times I don’t need 100W! But I think they needed more ways the differentiate the 2.

    • @johnbraucher1499
      @johnbraucher1499 2 роки тому +2

      There are many after market footswitches that will open up all those options. And for $250 Brand new and all the options and different sounds you can get with this amp and the sound quality, there's gonna be SOMETHING they sacrifice. Question is, WHY did they decide to sacrifice THIS. So dumb.

    • @8Seven65

    Today I found the UNI-V effect in Tone Studio and realized how absolutely amazing it would be to have the rate set to 0, the depth set to 100, and the level connected to an expression pedal. I want to use it for an intro riff now, and use the pedal while doing a slow fretboard slide. It makes a wicked awesome sound :D

    If they are just latch mode, you could hypothetically cycle thru all four settings with a single switch. Shorting tip-ring-sleeve would be one setting, Shorting tip-sleeve another, tip-ring a third, shorting none a fourth. Doubt there’s a stomp switch that does this

      It’s easier to tweak your tone with spark because you have the mobile app. With katana you’ll need to connect to a PC/Mac to really tweak the chain but there’s probably greater flexibility once you do. Katana probably better as an all rounder as it can crank to 50W and has. 12” speaker. The spark sounds amazing but probably wouldn’t be good if you’re playing with a band
