Best amp in the world is the old fender dual showman. Obviously a 100 watt valve amp. Ther harmonics of every note have no parallel. You can suck at playing guitar and you play a note on that amp and it just perfectly musical.

he is speaking about the Katana 50 Mk 1. But very big thank ^^

I was born in the 1950's , had the very best of times in the 1960's and 70's (despite being poor) , nearly died in the 1990's and have watched so many important people to me pass away or move away. What has kept me going through it all - even now with progressive heart disease and diabetes as unwanted companions - is a love of music, nature and those who care for me and I them. There are thousands of us who care about you Dave even though we don't figure in your personal life. Take heart from this - you are blessed with a reach that most never achieve.

But I'm a pretty good keyboard player. But even that doesn't make up for not being able to play guitar very well. Haha!

Hello from Mississippi- Great mention of Peavey! I stumbled on to a 77 Peavey standard and found they scream! So I got a 78 standard for a backup. I never expected a solid state amp of any make to do what these do. Mid-range is never lost in a Peavey product haha!

I had the precursor to the MG; the Valvestate 8100 head. Man, that thing sounded awesome. But I traded it in for a Fender Hot Rod because I “needed” a valve amp. And I bought into everyone’s line that tube amps are better. I miss the roar of that valve state amp. The Katana 50 has been so great for me the last 10 months. It’s the first gigging amp that I’ve had since getting rid of all my valve amps. And I don’t miss those valve amps. I have everything I need with the Katana.

Dude, Dave, You are an enormous source of info and makes us believe in the human race once again. You may feel down but you always lift up others.. CHEERS!

I'm a insomniac sometimes for days it really dose mess with staying on task. Hopefully yours is temporary. Your music is just amazing its so good it makes me feel better. Hang in there and thank you for sharing.

I feel like I'm at a concert... a show... well, I am! And I can return and watch it in th future! Thank you Dave!

I've had my MG full stack since '05 . Mainly used in 1/2 stack configuration, or one cab each side of the room. After watching you're videos about the MG's, I've gotten a better appreciation of them. I'm using close to the way you set them up, and really enjoy the sounds more. Thanks for the videos. Keep on keepin' on Brother!

Been playing live myself since 1976 and ended up using nothing but katana's myself now! Bought one of the first MKI 50s in the UK and sold all my valve combos as a result.!! I now own two 100s and a artist too...never going back to valves. I use the crunch channel with the effects. Turn the master up full and run the channel volume for level. Sounds fatter and thicker. To mod the lineout use Tonestudio to mod the effects and lineout. The valve is history...

It's so refreshing to see a man admit he is struggling and sharing the experience and the struggle. We all go through it mate, but so many men won't talk about it. Keep up the good work, lip up mate you'll get through it. The katana artist 100w is a revelation. That's my gigging amp and I could quite happily not use a valve amp again. Such a great amp. I really want to try out if they make a mk2 Also dude have you ever thought of doing a podcast something called The Pub Gig or the toilet circuit. You could talk about gear, on stage moments, stories or travel and your general experience of being a gigging musician on the circuit. I think a lot of younger musicians could do with your experience and knowledge.

Dave is also very intelligent and knowledgeable. This is good advice suitable for first amp buyers or those wanting to expand into performance or recording.

I got my MG102CFX today, turned it on and instantly got a great clean sound. Which is what I like so that I can dirty it up to suit myself. Reverb and echo are the business. Flanging, chorus are things I never use, but are there if I want them.

Had a MG100hdfx years ago with a 4x12. Sold it after it developed a fault and kept cutting out (that on reflection could have been an easy fix). Pissed over everything I’ve owned ever since. And as other folk have commented, no need for apologies dude. Am right there with you.

Jo, if you read these comments, please give Dave a big hug from all of us in youtube land.

Hi Dave. I know you don't particularly like diving into the software much, and I may be waaay off base here, but on the Katana100 you can change the "line out air feel" and "cabinet resonance" from the Line Out setting under the System tab (bottom right on the software screen). Would these help the live playing issue maybe, perhaps, who knows?

Dave, have you tried a Palmer PDI-09 DI box? It connects between the amp speaker out and your cab and gives a speaker compensated line level signal for the PA. I use the PDI-09 live for similar reasons that you like to DI - there's no mic stand to get knocked and no spill into the mic from nearby drums and bass cabs. I also find it gives a much more consistent sound in FoH than a mic.

mines my beloved aer compact 60 iv for super clean clarity yes its from the acoustic people but with my 355 for jazzy sessions it's great.

Dave you can put an electrolytic capacitor across the positive and negative speaker terminals and that will cut frequencies. The higher the value the more high end it will cut so start with a 10uF and go from there. Same as capacitors work on the tone controls in your guitar. Or just change the speaker.

I know that high frequency you're talking about on the Katana 50. I couldn't get past it , so I bought the Orange pro 60 and all is right in the universe. But of course I paid $475 for the Orange and the Boss Katana only cost $219

See if you can get hold of a H||H. I still have an old H||H IC100S I picked up in the late 70's. Was gigging with that in Cardiff and Phil Campbell from Motorhead came up to me and asked me how I got 'THAT' sound. Was chuffed with that.

I'm currently in love with a Jet City JCA50H... But I don't gig, nor have a played an MG.

Great video Dave. I’m loving my Katana Mini and really impressed with the sound of these modern solid state amps. I’d like to get the Katana 50 at some point too so I’m looking forward to seeing some katana mkII videos. Have you played through the Blackstar Silverline yet?

We all know youtube is penalising via copyright which limits him. We all mostly come here for intro jams because they're so fuckin' good.

Hi Dave Do you find any difference between the early 2000 Marshall MG's and the newer ones? thanks so much cheers!

On days its hard to keep you thinking straight writing what you want to say on paper could help. Like writing the key points that you want to touch on.

Hell yeah, them n'Oranges look cool! 👍 I have the combo, in black tolex... love the response from this amp! It's not 'my' sound, which is a good thing. I use it mostly for bolstering guitar tracks by playing a second run with it, and that looser growl makes things chunk-right-up! Also, it seems to like single coils better than some other amps. Loves pedals, too. Take care of yourself Dave... you're the only one of you we get around here.😊 Cheers!
