I'd love to hear a demo of the 2 for mid-gain tones.

It sounds a cheap boxy sounding POS battery powered amp. Roland Cube Street is a very popular option on the higher end of the price range. Now, the Katana-Mini makes serious Katana tone accessible in a small, go-anywhere amp that runs on batteries. Joined: Mar 28, 2012 Location: Somewhere north. Hey guys, so I’m getting my first electric guitar and I’m trying to decide on what’s a good first amp for myself. I like the way they both sound ( at least based on YouTube) but unfortunately I can't play them before I buy. Does anybody have any experience with these two amps?

Roland Micro Cube vs Boss Katana Mini.

So I think if that's your style, it's a no brainer to go for the Katana Mini. Battery powered amps at this size and price point are often labeled "toys" or "beginner" products, but that's an unfair label for the BOSS Katana mini.

Looking at the small ones because I’ll mostly just be playing to myself and maybe taking it around for small jams. Nov 15, 2017 #5. frthib Member. It's no surprise Chappers loves the Katana, he's a high-gain guy. Boss Katana Vs Roland Blues Cube. Boss Katana Mini / Blackstar Fly / Fender Mini Tweed? The fact is that at the volumes you use the Katana Mini, many larger amps would not be able to retain clarity and sustain turned down to "1" or below. BOSS Katana amps have received accolades from guitarists everywhere for their fantastic sound and feel, onboard effects, and great value. Well, all the demos made it sound much, much better than really does. I suspected that it would be the case, but I went ahead and rolled the dice. Moe45673, Nov 15, 2017 #4. fretless likes this. I ordered a Boss Katana Mini the other day on a whim after watching some reviews and deciding that it would make a handy little amp to use out on the road. Messages: 1,432.
