I bought this head from Andertons a month ago. It's superb! Properly loud and SO versatile (some would say too versatile). The bluetooth app opens it up for live work more than I thought it would.
I think this is a wonderful unit. Love the sounds that it can deliver. Some may not be that high quality but at a live gig, no one notices at all. Then with 3 presets, that means you got 4 tailored sounds at your disposal. If it were a true 500w @ 4ohms this baby is perfect for medium sized gigs. Pair it up with a 2x10 & a 1x15. Am so keen to get this head. No more pedals! Just a foot switch.
It looks and sounds good. Slightly (only slightly) disappointed that it doesn't have an effects loop on the back of the amp; the Katana bass combos have those so it feels like they may have missed a trick (although the on-board effects sound pretty good).
I'm not looking for an amp like this but it sounds great. I have a friend who plays a Katana guitar amp live and he swears by it especially for the range of tones and versatility. Great to see a head option for bass. I love Cici but miss the frequency and length of the bass videos you guys used to do with Nathan and Lee...
I went into central London to try both the combos and this head. All these buttons gave me a headache. The combo is class A/B and head class D. The sound different. I may have to try it again but I just became frustrated. On the frequency of vids and length I fully agree. To me it feels like this channel has moved even more towards guitars than before.
I'm half and half bass and guitar player (meaning I'm not very good at either - joking, I'm decent :P) but looking for a bass amp for my guitar since I mostly travel solo and loop a lot. Is this katana a good choise for a guitar or should I stick with the bassman?
I tried zooming in on the head with my laptop, used the camera zoom on my phone, and looked at the Sire site. I couldn't figure it out either. Hopefully they'll do a review video with it.
@@xevilashx V10 is new series and site only shows new model for now, it possible this one to be custom made or old version or prototype. But its definitely a V10. Drop mail to andertons maybe they can shed some light.
Oh come on! One of the only backing tracks I have are Cici playing her bass! I didn't know she was famous! I am telling the world about my GOD MOD tomorrow you all! Everyone will know how to mod their tube amp with my GOD MOD tubes to change their tone to a professional level amplifier! You can get different sounds unheard of yet! Guy who set up tube amps for the live shows of Metallica and Kiss taught me this! I feel everyone should know! Hey Cici? I don't know if bass tube amps work with my GOD MOD! I would think my GOD MOD does work though with bass amps if they are tube! I hope you can get my GOD MOD to work for you Cici! So many new different sounds for everyone! All you do is change your tubes & bias your amp! And I will show you how tubes only can change your sound completely if you want! Thanks Cici & everyone else! Take care & enjoy what you all hear!
All the cool kids who rock a 2×10 cab put it upright vertically like this with the head on top, and every manufacturer of 2x10 bass cabs puts the logo and little rubber feet so that it's designed to sit horizontally. Who's right?
Possibly she knows in her hear that most of these features are just toys that she would never use. She wants a great bass tone, she gets quirky gimics. Its funny.
