I learnt more from this guy in one video than I would have watching 10 others. Very well presented and explained. Subscribed.
Yeah seriously great energy, chill, concise and informative!
Agree
Also agree. Made my decision.
Same here. He is very good!
This Guy is a good Presenter.
Even as a bedroom player, I think the Katana 100 is absolutely worth the extra investment. Don't think having double the wattage means it's an amp just for gigging. The other extra features are the real selling point.
100% agree
I love how you explained the loop thing and then showed us exactly what you were talking about. Many take this for granted
You’re very welcome:)
Great information! Thank you! I had already purchased a 50, but I know I will be happy with it. Both are awesome amps.
Wow, I've never watched a video that fully answered all of my questions so precisely! thank you!
100 it is by the way :D
This IS the BEST review of these two amps I have seen!! Not rushed through and very well detailed. Thank you for doing this comparison video as it helped me to decide to go with the 50.
My pleasure!
You might regret that at some stage. The versatility that the GA-FC unlocks should be reason enough to go for the 100W model, especially if you want to gig with the amp.
Man, your videos about the BOSS Katana have been really helpful. Also, I learn other possibilities to configure my own Katana. Thanks a lot.
Please, more videos like this
To the point and cleary explained - excellent video!
I have been searching this topic for hours. Your video was absolutely amazing. Hands down, you nailed this in very simple terms.
Incredibly detailed breakdown of the two versions! Thank you, man.
Thank you so much, Dave. Great comparison. Clear, concise, systematic, - and clearly defining what distinguishes one amp from the other. Much obliged.
I've just bought my Boss Katana 50 about a month ago after Covid lockdown, have been playing it every day since - it's really such a great amp. After watching your video, I don't regret buying the 100!
I bought in april sold, boughr another new in sept sold and just traded a fender stage 112 to guitar center for.another new 1. Thinking of getting 100 with next stimmy
I bought Katana 50. I love looping and i love to change my tone. I'm crying now. Where were you when I needed you Dave :c i did not know that things
If you have another speaker or don't mind headphones, then this could work (though not ideal): ruclips.net/video/7oOWpw6MZjk/видео.html
Use loopee pedal, for looping
hi i have seen a lot of reviews for anything.
None were presented so nicely that everyone could understand.
Thank you so much for the reviews and for existing.
My pleasure 😊
As always the best review i've come to watch about something. After watching like a thousand videos of the katana mk2 i didnt find a single one that explained it in such a nice, intelligent, patient and concise manner as you. Thank you so much man. Really.
You’re welcome Luis!
Thank you for the time you took to make this video! It really broke it down for me and explained it clearly. Really nice job. Made my decision clear and easy!
What a fantastic video. Clear, well demonstrated and explained. Thankyou so much Dave.
Wow, I have watched 2 dozen videos on these two amps and you are the first to explain how that foot switch worked and that you could plug in additional pedals to it. I probably will still get the 50 because by the time I learn how to use all those effects the Mk V will be out and I'll get that.
Fantastic in depth video! Was really debating between the two. The advantages of the 100 were clearly explained with examples, which in haven’t been able to find yet. Appreciate it!
Your info and tutorials are awesome. You do a great job. Thanks for all you've already done...
.. love this vid .. thank you so much for taking the time to explain all the important bits that surely most enthusiasts & potential buyers wanted to know about these amps
My pleasure!
Great presentation of the amps' differences - very useful, and I learned good info re: effects loops and loopers, too. Well done.
Thanks!
This is exactly the video I needed to help me decide between the 2. Thanks mate!
Great explanation, and really grateful that you gave a clear recommendation at the end.
Awesome vid! Just started my guitar journey, and i think you answered all my questions about looping with amps and foot pedals. Katana 100 will be in my hands soon!
Great info on the looper. I've always had a pedalboard and not a modeler so that was new info.
Thank you so so much. This was the video I was looking for.
Exactly the information I needed! Thanks so much
Super-clear, informative video! I'm still rocking my trusty Katana 50 mk1!
Great video where you competently explained in detail the differences in the two models. I personally made the decision to go for the Katana Artist Mk II because of the Waza speaker and the convenience of having the controls on the front of the cabinet.
Very useful, thanks... I have the Boss 100 mkII and the Boss footswitch already and I learnt more information. 👍😉
When that video came out I had my 50 for about 6 months. First of all, it is a great amp, no doubt. Meanwhile I know that the little extras on the 100 are more than worth the 100 Euro in addition which the 100 would've clocked in. Maybe I'll get one in the future anyway. Thank you for breaking down those 2 excellent amps and pointing out the differences. I've already built up a small recording studio (DAW, Audio Interface, Midi Commander/Controller, Monitor Speakers, Bias FX II/Neural DSP modelling software, etc.) so there is not really a need for the 100 anymore but you know how it feels when you think that was the wrong one you've bought. One of the best channels on RUclips. Keep up the excellent work \o/
Thank you for the demo of the FX loop and footswitches.
You’re welcome!
Chill,concise and informative. Love your energy! Thank you!
No problems!
I own the katana 100 and I couldn't be happier. At first I wanted the katana 50 but they only had the katana 100 on the store. I don't regret my decision even if I don't gig with it, it has everything I could ever need. Awesome video Dave!
100 watt has 50w setting so it's like you have both lol
Hi Andrea is the 100 good to get Metallica heavy tone?
I need to return my 50, or sell it loo
@@noahhudelson2447 i would like to sell my Katana 50 and buy a Tube Amp instead.
Thats an awesome reviews of two awesome amps!
Cheers from Portugal 🍺🤘🇵🇹🎄
You do such a great job of explaining the differences and benefits! Found yourself a subscriber here!
I really want to thank you for this video, you help me decide in getting the Boss 100 as i saw one at a pawn shop brand new for $240. Thanks for you for clear and concise instructions.
Excellent explanation and deno of looping. Very helpful!
This was fantastic, answered all my questions. I didn't know the looper wouldn't work as well with the 50. Saved me some frustration
Glad it helped!
Great demo, pointing out the features that matter to quite a lot of players. ✌️
Still helpful years later! Thank you
I appreciate the depth and details of this demo.
Thx man, this is the best explanation which one to choose! Please keep up doin' a great work. ;-)
Thanks uploader, the was very helpful indeed. I’ll be looking at the 50. 😎👍
Fantastic explanation of the differences between the amps!
Excellently clear video. Really helpful and nicely presented.
OMG, you sir just teach me about using these extra equipment and I'm not guitarist i just come over to check which kana I should buy for my first guitar.... you are LEGEND 🙌
Super helpful, thanks for this video!!
Very nice in depth video of the differences. Subscribed.
Great video. Really well done. Thanks
This was exactly what I needed to make my decision. Thank you!
Really useful video been spending ages trying to find differences between these two amps but the loop feature really sold the 100 for me I feel the 50 is kinda lacking when combining the extra pedals and boards you can buy. Thanks great video!!
Appreciate the detail clear explanation!!!thanks
Answering so many of my questions in this video Thanks excellent
Best Katana video! Would love to see this again with the new Katana Mark2 50 EX. since it now supports the gafc switch!
Awesome breakdown of both amps I’ve been struggling to decide which one to get. You made it clear to me about looper aspect for both and I’m definitely going with the 100. Thx
You’re welcome! Enjoy!
It was the same for mye. 👌 Im geting the 100
Thank you for your easy to understand intuitive videos.
Great video on how to get the topic explained in a way that keeps the viewer interested.
Thanks! Appreciate that!
Very clear and concise explanation. Luckily this was the first video I watched on the subject and don’t feel the need to find any more. 🙏🏻
You are amazing. Your clarity of speaking is commendable. Thanks
Another brilliant review.... thanks Dave 😊
Superb review! Thanks dude!
Thank you for a very useful video. My next guitar amp is almost certainly a Katana and I believe I will go for the hundred watt primarily because it has the effects loop. Keep up the excellent work!😀👍🏻
Incredibly clear and very instructional video.
Great comparison my man, exactly what i was looking. U got a sub🤟😎🎸
Absolutely awesome video - thank you, Dave - from Australia.
Very good demo, lots of info. I like the wah idea.
Very helpfully presented, thank you!
Thank you for this great video...
I have casually noodles with guitar off and on for a handful of years now....started with a tiny Orange Crush 12 , and soon after got the Marshall MG30CFX and it's PEDL footswitch. The Marshall has been a decent amp so far.
Recently my son was given a guitar for his birthday, and that has reignited my desire to play again. I have had my eye on a few amps to get so that we could jam together or with friends. One being the Crush 35RT, as it has the effects loop. I have also had my eye on the Katana amps. Eventually we'd like to jam with friends, as one neighbor has a nice Bass setup, and another plays drums. I HAD originally thought of the 30-35W 10" amps as JUST being enough to jam with them if they don't crank the 4x10 bass cabs or pound the drums too hard... but had also looked into other amps with 12" speakers. Can't afford something like a DSL40 right now....lol
We would like to eventually begin experimenting with various tones, amd get some pedals or a multi-fx like a Headrush, or maybe both, definitely a looper soon..... and we want to he able to approximate a wide variety of rock, classic rock, blues, and more modern tones...neither of us are really into hard rock or metal...
Thos video has me thinking I need to get something with the effects loop for sure. Your demonstration of the footswitch capabilities on the 100MkII makes me thinnest we either need to go with that, OR pony up for a different amp with a loop as well as some pedals or an MX5 Headrush...
Going to buy a looper to start with, while I work on deciding which amp to get or which way to go from here...I live in a very rural area, so seeing these things in person is nearly impossible. Thanks so much for the video! Any additional input would be most appreciated...
Great video thanks for the info. It really help me make my decision.
Great comparison thank you. My comment is really with modeling amps like these the effects loop(s) are not needed. I say that because with so many built in effects these amps offer if you need external effects then its time to upgrade to a pedal board and tube amp. These modeling amps are really nice for home use, recording, modeling or a couple guys getting together but for anything serious, as you indicated go get the big boy amps. Pedal board with effects and prepare to spend some money but worth it. Don't get me wrong I love these amps for just myself at home they work awesome. Thanks for the video!
Well done. I already decided I want to purchase the Katana 100, but your video nailed it down for me.
Hey Dave - Great video, as usual. I have bought both (lucky me!). Perhaps now, I can get the best from both of them.
Brilliant video! Thanks man (liked and subbed!)
Great explanation of using the GA FC.
Thank you for this video it really help me to decide which one i'm going to buy 😊
Great comparison. So glad I watched before buying.
Thanks! Awesome video. When I loop with the 50 I could change tones with the pickups and knobs, so it is not too much limiting.
That’s a great point!
Brilliant video full of all the information I was looking for 👌
Glad it was helpful!
Great video and really helpful explanation. Thanks
Thanks Lee
Bought the 50 and wonderful video on the differences.
You've literally made up my mind! I've been thinking that the 50W was all I needed, but the section on looper use at the end swung it for me. I'm definitely going to get the 100W now. Cheers 👍👍
No problems!
Fantastic video, mate!
What a great video! Thank you!
i bought a Katana 50 mk2 and immediately returned it back and changed with katana 100 mk2 because i really like a 4 way cable set up. i am satisfied of this nice amp.
That was a really good video! I could make a decision from that video. Thank you!
Thx for this really good video my friend.
Love your work Dave. Great to see over 1m subs. Well deserved.
Thanks 🙏🏼
@@GuitarZero2Hero I'm just checking deals with guitar shops to trade in my 50w for a 100w..... for the effects loop mostly.
Dude, I've been looking which amp I would choose for weeks now but daaamn, your video is just what we need. It's Insane how I know now, at 100%, that I'll take a Katana 100.
Thank you !
You’re welcome mate! Enjoy!
Excellent tutorial. Thank you…
Excellent info. I was going to by a 100 anyway. Definitely using your links for it now - plus the peripherals.
Cool, thanks!
Way to go Dave. Nicely detailed. Thanks for sharing. I will have to get the 100 model because it has a line out. :)
Great review!
Thankyou for your advice. It was extremely helpful. 🙏
You’re welcome 😊
Sooooo great presentation! Thanx!
Thanks you so much for that work. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
I own the 100 and couldn't be happier! Thanks!
Great info. Thank you
awesome video man, as always
Appreciate it!
