  • In my mind it is between the Katana Gen 3 Artist (c£1,180 100w head and Waza 2×12 Cab) and the Marshall JTM Studio (£1250 20w head and 2×12 Cab). In that regard very little difference but the Katana brings all the tech.
    Expect where the real value and “tonal bang for buck” is in the Katana 100w Gen 3 Combo @ £690 you can’t really beat it.

  • Great amp, love the sound and the features but it's going to sound exactly the same when feeded by line-out of a Katana 100. Must be just the speaker and the box design…
    Nice review and wonderfull playing – Thx.

  • I've been a tube amp player all my life, but when I played thru this little monster it was like a religious experience. I love this amp, sounds like a Marshall tube amp.

  • New subscriber here, thank you for the excellent run through of Katana Artist MKII, on an impulse I bought this last night, it will be delivered next week. I was hoping to find well thought out reviews of this amp and you did a great, detailed job explaining everything I wanted to know and more. Thank you, great job!

  • I have a Katana Artist Mk ll on order and I can’t wait to play through it. All the reviews on YouTube give this amp very high marks.

  • Wonderful demo and presentation, no question. But what you call "warmth" is basically a transistor preamp wiping out all top harmonics. Sorry the woolen blanket sound is not for me.

  • Bought the Artist, after they released the 2. Got a hell of a deal. I don't get paid to play … This amp is fantastic! Tube-ville baby! On a budget!

  • I have a Boss Artis and it kicks ass. I play a lot of country, rockabilly and gospel . Works great and it has a acoustic switch and I us it. It is a great amp. Keep up the great work.
