Considering you currently only have 123 subscribers your production quality is great. Great set, lighting, video, editing, graphics, transitions. Very professional. Nice work. I hope your channel grows.
Thank you! I'm glad you notice the production quality of these as we've been putting a lot of work into them. Thanks for the support!
I was thinking the same thing,this is the review i loved the most.
Thanks for a well planned and thought out review. Obviously a good amp for the money that can do quite a lot. Best wishes with your YT channel. 👍
Love the fact that the amp has a little bit of dust. It definitely looks like it has been used :-) Good job with the video.
Buy the 100 first of all. If you're a katana librarian user (usb phone or tablet) to the amp you have a host of pedals, and yes you can have a tuner, importing and xporting files is easy, hold channel button on the amp to save the patch. That to me is the great thing about this amp, the ease and how easy it is to explore all these great sounds at a good price, it keeps up well with my 6505 and is plenty loud.
Up uo up! Congratulations om the great work.
I owned a Boss Katana 100 mkII. With a great deal of effort, I could get it dialed in to my preferences at home with one issue. But EVERY time I took it to rehearsal, it sounded vastly different.
That is not uncommon. And with typical gear, it's no big deal. But with the Katana, it's a deal breaker.
I could make a few adjustments with the knobs and onboard controls. But to have the complete control I needed, I had to carry a laptop, connect it, and crawl neck deep into the weeds of the software while the rest of the band waited.
NO THANKS!
Needless to say, the Katana never made it to a gig. I sold it after 6 months of trying to make it usable.
And the "one issue" I spoke of was the fact that I never could get a good guitar tone through the amp no matter what I did. No EQ adjustment or other tool could give it the punch I was used to in a good amp. Either the speaker, the cabinet, or the combination of the two always produced a brittle, lacking sound that disappeared in the mix.
Boss makes some excellent products, many of which I own and rely on. But the Katana is not one of them.
This is so nicely done! Professional. I have this amplifier, approx. 2 years. I haven't figured it all out YET. It's those channels and effects that mess me up. Something that seems IMPOSSIBLE to determine is the ohms rating of the speaker. Boss does not reveal that for some reason. The multimeter tells me 4.8 ohms. Too high for 4 ohms and too low for 8. So what the H?? UA-cam vids argue back'n'forth about this but nothing definite. It makes me %$^@. I want to hook it to my 1 by 12 - 8 ohm cabinet but I'm scairdy to do it. I WILL have an adapter that facilitates this connection by the way. But I don't like it one little bit that BOSS refuses to specify the ohms rating on that speaker!!
so it doesnt have distortion
You look like a Renaissance character. The quality of the production contributes to that haha
Might suit up with a helmet and armor for the next vid so. ⚔😃
@@MusicianWaveOfficial Nah. One of those paintings with a man chilling in the bed or sitting at a desk writing a poem hahaha The video was very good. I just bought a Katana last week and it's amazing.
@@MusicianWaveOfficial What are your thoughts about this amp vs the Marshall Code 50? and speaking of the code 50, Any issues with the code 50 so far? bluetooth connectivity and such? I'm thinking about buying one myself and my luck, they come out with a Code MKII, any chance of that even happening? please advise.
Niccolò Machiavelli, very similar. 😄
@@EdRimoli Hahaha yeah! Didn't think of him. But now I see it.
Hey sweet channel man. Helped me decide 👍
I can't get the Boss Tone Studio to work!!! Key point is... keep in mind you Can Not reach BOSS by phone or any other way! If you have any trouble with anything (such as never being able to get the Tone Studio) then you are 100% out of luck. I bought this new a little over a month ago and while it sounds fine and the knobs on the top are useful it only lets you do so much with the knobs. I only wanted the best practice amp for home usage but if the tone studio is the best feature and it never downloads and does not work then what is the point? At this time, I would rather just get another smaller tube amp and drag out my pedals.
Same here. Cannot get studio working
the over drive / distortions sound boxy/nasally Does the MK II have an external speaker out?
the online effects are impossible to download and use
which amp sounds better to you Line 6 Catalyst 60 or BOSS Katana 50 MKII?
The Line 6 amp sounded a bit better to us. Btw, we've planned a more detailed comparison video of those amps that we'll be recording at some point soon!
@@MusicianWaveOfficial :)
your video is thge most realistic - other sound far better than the amp really sounbds
nah...you can get a very nice sound out of it you just need to play a little
You need to play with it, solid amp
Yeah other UA-cam channels might do more post processing. Tbh I don't think it sounds very good in this video. I think it probably sounds better in the room. I'm not knocking his recording skills, I'm just saying it probably could have used a little more post processing. You'll never get the same sound on a recording as in the room so some post is fine. Especially on an amp like this that will probably be used for bedroom recording more than gigging.
@@redhorsereincarnated5040 the mkII 50 watt sounded so bad i sold it so he is the most accurate
@@redhorsereincarnated5040 yeah I think it would make sense to jump back and forth between raw and post-processed sounds in these videos so it's something we might work on. We just didn't want to go overboard with post-processing and give people an unrealistic expectation of what this amp sounds like.
Nothing ruins a gear review like somebody who's in love with the sound of their own voice and can't stop talking. 80% of this review is him talking Instead of playing the d*** amplifier.
Because it’s a fucking review. The whole point of a review is that the person reviews the product.
Good review but it sounds like hot garbage
No offense, but I think if you want to grow your YT channel, I'd suggest getting some original material. The Katanas have been reviewed to death on here over the past 7 years - every version, every iteratIon, every model, every feature.
If you're not offering anything new or different, you're going to struggle getting your numbers up.
i found them cus I seached for a katana review.
wow . . your first gripe is no tuner ? best combo amp ever and thats your problem ? just never mind . .
