One caution: Some guitars (possibly some Telecasters) have output jacks that are too deeply recessed to accommodate the PA-1’s ¼ inch plug. Your choice is to use the PockRock or M-Vave (See my other comment), which connect via regular cables like ordinary foot pedals. I think such deeply recessed jacks are “bogus” & suggest that you can replace your jack with one meant for a Stratocaster (which is recessed, but not deeply). Alternatively, you can extend the PA-1’s jack with a par of adapters that convert ¼ inch jack to1/8 inch & back to ¼ inch. Also, any of these pre-amps that are programmable, take just a bit of "fiddling" to get the process "under your belt", as combinations of buttons perform different functions than they do individually, etc. But, it's not all that complicated, and a search will turn up other reviews that go into the process step by step. It's worth mastering, as these little devices are remarkably versatile, and sound great.
I dont have the boss katana pocket amp, but I do have a Fender Mustang Micro and Lekato. The Mustang is a decent pocket amp with a hefty price of around 120-150$ (got mine for 110 new). How close the Lekato comes to that sound is unreal considering I paid 25$ for it on aliexpress. Sure, the Mustang is one of the top pocket amps available, and the plastic materials used are (marginally better) better, but the sound quality is not 100$ better. Keep in mind that you can customize not only each preset, but every single effect the Lekato can produce. It is a somewhat steep learning curve, but it's worth it. Of course, if you can afford it, grab the BOSS or the Fender, but have a Lekato just in case.
Great demo! I love mine, especially since I have all the presets dialed in to where I want them. Hours and hours of playability! And don't forget the Blue Tooth capability of it for jamming to backing tracks. 👍
Thanks man! I'm happy to hear you're enjoying this product! It's a really neat little device for sure! I never tried the Bluetooth aspect but now I will have to! 🤟🔥
And the processor is good and the guitarist is cool! I haven’t played for 30 years, and I probably won’t be able to do that anymore... But I enjoyed your game! Thank you!
I've not tried that one to be honest! Looks cool. If you're not on a budget, the highest end model would probably offer more versatility. But out of all the mini portable amps I've reviewed I'd say the joyo portable pedal amp was the most fun.
Thanks! I ran the headphone jack into my interface/DAW, and had speakers plugged into the interface for the video. All the sound/effect/tone is strictly from the Lekato pocket amp
