Helping Ex Make Amp Choice....

[zozoe]

Yes,, she's looking at either the Line6 Catalyst 60 or the Boss Katana 50..... Honestly, she requires ease of setup & use, & having the ability via a footswitch to switch channels and/or turning on/off effects....
thnx, Kenny ॐ

I am a Katana fan, but you really need to have the USB connected to get to most of the effects. Once you pick 4 sounds, you can store them on the amp itself. And it sounds great.

What narcissistic woman asks her Ex for help in deciding on an amp to buy? You sir, are being too nice. Put that chick in her place and don't simp for her. Tell her to do her own research and find her own amp.

In all seriousness though. The Katana is taking all the win right now. Now go tell her to drop rocks.

Ampeg gvt5-110, no its not a bass amp. But it does have 3 knobs: volume, bass, and treble. It also has a pentode/standby/triode switch. Plus it says: I don't think you could afford more than $300.

Katanas are flexible, but don't really bring home the "ease of use" crowd.

Actually, you could be fine with a Katana without ever hooking it to a computer. The computer just unlocks a lot more stuff.

Just get the Katana. Unless she was banging the Bass player. In that case, recommend a Vintage Line 6 Spyder amp.

5 watt gorilla amp. Perfect tone for your ex. And it will definitely be loud enough to play out with a band.

HA!! Right you are, but I find it easier to be nice & more helpful to her in our separated state.....
She's fickle, dopey, & needs to be led to water when thirsty.... Over the years, I've had her in a Marshall JCM800 1x12 combo, the original .22 Caliber Mesa, that small GK ML250?, original Fender 'Relic' Blues Jr., then the Monoprice 15w'r... Also, thru all the years of marital bliss, she had access to any & all of my boutique stuff..... Fast Forward, I STILL have all my goodies, & she has zippo, by her lame decisions,,,, I stick 'it' to her in other ways, but when it comes to my passion & serious expertises, I can't hold back... ॐ

I will give you a pass this time. The next time I see you " looking for a friend ", I will have to publicly shame you and force-feed testosterone on you until you go back to being a caveman

Serenity now, serenity now... Take care of yourself,
and don't let her keep you on a string. They are Ex's for a reason

Line6 is the easiest.
katana sounds better but takes a lot to get it figured out..... My free advice not knowing the situation is steer clear of the discussions and headache teaching her how to use the katana.
Line6 all the way.

This is the rational and emotionally mature path to take, and the overwhelming majority of divorced people would live happier lives if they could manage it.
