Thanks Sam, great review and playing !

Nice to see someone who can actually play demoing the Artist 👍

The Kat Artist head and a lightweight 1x12 cab is something I’d really like to see. The Artist combo is bulky for a SS amp. The Kat 2x12 cab is a bit much to lug around regularly for rehearsals and gigs.

Bought mine because of all the features and amazing versatility? Nah
Bought mine because I looks freaking awesome and sounds awesome.

Is the line out mono?
Is the cabinet true stereo while using the artist head?

I just ordered one for my Marshall stack..It has vintage 30s in both so I hope this amp will wake up these cabinets..

[Alexander-rgje]

Is it true that the Katana simulates the tube sound as it says?

[iggynub]

Serious question, with the modelling aspects why would i consider other amps like BlackStar's ht60 etc? These look to cover almost every base well.

[ronaldkleinberger]

Can you stack the cab and make a 4x12?

Im buying the mk2 artist along with the 2x12 cab. But for just a few dollars more i could buy the combo. Either way i still want the 2x12 cab. I just cant decide on head or combo. Any advantages of one over the other?

[bsquare]

Im new to head and cabs. BOSS says with this head you can run 2 speaker cabs. How would you wire that up.

[Johnny-oyfh]

It's a shame we aren't hearing the mic'd cab on this video

I can't for the life of me figure out WHY all these amp reviews, the GAIN is NEVER set to not???
I'm a metalhead and I'm looking for an Amp head that would be appropriate for Metallica, Pantera, Cannibal
I wanna hear how the damn thing will sound with FULL GAIN and ALL the reviews the GAIN is at 4 or 5/10
For the love of god, set the damn GAIN at
