My Trading Feedback | You Bring The Band
Just because you're paranoid, don't mean they're not after youI'm tempted.
So you really don't need to take a tuner/batteries/power-supply. And there's also apps for your phone now too inc a very good Boss tuner!
BUT for me there are two big downers with the Katana:
First - its £85 floor pedal...it has no patch-naming facility. Once you hit 8 patches (which you can now do with the 100w versions) for gigging it makes life sooo much easier when you are moving in/out of stomp box mode and patch mode, to see where you are in an instant. And £85 for the floor controller (essential for gigging IMHO) is a bit steep when you consider the Marshall CODE pedal is only £49 and they do pretty much the same thing. Kind of partly negates the great price of the Katana.
Second - although it has a line-out, phones-out, FX loop, USB, & 2xpedal inputs - it has no extn cab out. So if I bought the smaller, lighter cheaper 1x12 (rather than the 2x12) and wanted to plug into a 2x12 or 4x12 - I couldn't (ignoring 'mods' that would invalidate the warranty). As good as the Katana is reported to be, there are limits re fullness of sound that any 1 x 12" combo can deliver. It would be such a simple and inexpensive thing to add on too. But to be fair the Fender Mustangs, Vox Valvetronix, nor Marshall Codes provide an extn cab out either. Perhaps its intentional, to make you opt for the 2x12 versions or even the heads.
Add these two things & the 1x12 combo would be just about perfect!
I still use a good pedal tuner, the rechargeable batteries last way longer too.
Take it' this would be the 100Watt version?
