The amp loves a graphic EQ in the loop.

Got mine today also! I didn't have much time with it, but I will say first I used my GFlex 212 cab. Was not liking the sound at all. Did not sound near as good as the combo as I played at the store. Bass was all woofy, and the treble had this fizzy kazoo thing going on. It was aggravating me, lol. I moved it over to my old Avatar cab with V12's in it, and it sounded MUCH better. Tighter, clearer, etc.... like I remember the combo sounding. I briefly tried my Green Rhino in front also, and it sounded and felt great with it. I will have to mess with the editor tomorrow. Nice, solid little amp. Doesn't feel cheap at all. It is a solid little block, lol.
Sadly, this makes me wonder if this is why I have issues with my Axe-FX II / Matrix rig, because I always use it with the GFlex cab. I am gonna have to try it with my other cab also and see how it changes the sound.

Here are some mic'd clips a bud of mine did:
demo is 5 parts which are the main tones he uses:
1-Pushed clean
2- same with tremolo
3-modern clean with chorus
4- crunch ( actually the lead channel - various levels using the guitar volume knob)
5-lead (lead channel with boost and delay)
https://app.box.com/s/7v3o6qoassvwb361zm4q14na0velqcm1
Then some pick dynamics showing how the gain can be scaled back or opened up depending on pick attack

I had this same feeling when I placed the order.
Yeah I'm just poking fun for people to laugh. I'll probably pick one up at some point to have around. Could be useful for some gigs or recording.... definitely good amp to have for when buds come over to jam.

At the price these list for, with all the great return policies it's really a must try for most guys I would think.

I mean really what I think is the coolest?
It's so fun to play! The time flew by! Took like 30 sec to get a great tone! This is what it should be! Not endless tweaking, flipping, modifying, changing your shit cause a board says yay or nay!
I for one am the happiest I have been in forever when I play guitar with the Katana!
Great job Boss and everyone come join!

Swung by Seeetwater and got one for $329.
I AM a tube snob.
This thing KILLS for what it is and what it sells for.
THE FUTURE IS NOW. i wish this was my first amp at 16, I spent FAR more for WAY worse.
The crispness CAN be dialed out, all controls work as you are used to.
Zero complaints, even truly impressed with the onboard speaker, (makes me want to hack the amp a bit for an upgrade.)
The feature set is COMPLETE. Every other amp should take notice tubes or otherwise.
I think Ill be keeping mine as a bedroom praxtice amp that can do ANYTHING in a pinch.
It stands tall against my $6K rig no problem.
Jeez man at $350 they probably get these made st about $100, how far we have come.
Ive been A/B ing with tube buffer upfront. Feel is good alone but perfect with tube buffer up front.
