Great to see Justin here, the man is a national treasure.

Really loving these beginner friendly vids, guys. It's nice to get back to the fundamentals for a refresher course.

[@trfgod3095]

I’ve played guitar for 20 years and own lots of expensive equipment but I’m still sitting here watching and enjoying this video 😂

[@gillesgenete9598]

Tom Godwin haha, me too 😂 and what do you think of those tones ? I have a small Vox Night Train 2watts into 1 great cabinet, and my dream amp VOX AC15HW1, both giving my prefered tones. For curiosity I should try that Boss Katana to make my mind, KZbin vids show great tone from it, but here with a mic' in the room I don't like it. My 1st amp was a Mustang 20, no great tones until I changed the speaker, nevertheless does not compare to my Vox tones.

[@brucepiland]

I love my Katana. Seriously, I can’t believe the sounds. Crazy value.

[@janrandles8683]

Justin always just amazes me with his playing. I know this is about amps but I love his lessons and listening to him play. I will receive a 20 watt Marshall tomorrow so excited to watch this. For home practice/play only. My first tube amp!!!

[@James-zy5lh]

I bought the Fender Champion after giving it a go at a local guitar shop. It sounds great and is a lot of bang for your buck. I use it as a living room/practice amp. Gets loud enough for a jam with another guitarist and bassist and could even be used on a coffee shop gig. The amp models sound really good, and the effects get the point across well enough.

[@yurimodin7333]

still have my Frontman 25R and after throwing a Jensen MOD speaker in it its pretty solid. I am a computer guy but I like my amps simple :)

Yes, there are a lot of used ones available!!! ???

[@DrewKane]

Or a Fender Champion 50XL. Same price as a Boss Katana. Better cleans, meaning a better pedal platform for most people.

[@jughead6654]

100% agree. Even our favorite KZbin guitarists (Rob/Rab/etc) will jam on those bad boys. I also own one and can confirm they’re great

[@waynebrown1394]

@@DrewKane I agree and disagree the Katana can change wattage and you can hook it up to the computer and have access to a lot of pedals. If you want simple that sounds good the Champion 50XL is not a bad choice either. Both are good but I think the Katana was for me because you can change the wattage and I got a friend that knows a lot about computers and helped me dial in all the tones I like.

[@VGColosseum]

I'm in an apartment and only play for myself right now so I actually picked up the Katana Mini. Not something you could ever play out with, but it does great for what it is! Also it's nice to be able to practice in another room without having to unplug, lug, and replug.

[@chrisjohnstone6164]

Very useful guys -- this series with Justin for beginner kit is hugely exciting, useful and suprising ... especially the EastCoast stuff! - what a bargain!!

[@jeffowen7897]

One thing they didn't mention is Zoom G3n also has headphone socket, so when you are learning looping you can mess up privately without having to plug into an amp. If you use its looper and drum then you loose a couple of effects, but can still record clean backing (or whatever amp setting you like) and then feed effects prior to looper, all with one unit. Also, built in tuner. Can turn off drum once loop established, plenty on KZbin on how to set this up.

[@theverseshed]

One problem with amps that have an overload of FX, options etc. is that young players can spend too much time fiddling and messing - just like with keyboards that have a zillion rhythm and keyboard types as standard. The Blackstar sounds excellent, but for me it's the Fender 20 that wins out. It's less complex, has a good but not overblown range of options and FX and sounds good. Justin was also right about the bass response of the Fender having more fullness. I have had the Fender for some time now and love it. Purely as a personal preference, I prefer amps where all the controls face forwards rather than being on top.

[@greenbynature]

I only started playing guitar this year, and I'm on my third amp already! I started with a Roland Micro Cube, then I got a Line 6 Spider V 30, then ended up with a Fender Bassbreaker 007 with Vox StompLab llG. I have nothing against the Spider V, it was a great amp for the money, I just wanted valves to go with my Strat. I kept the Roland as well, it's a cracking little amp, and I like that it can be used with AA batteries. Btw, I keep hearing good things about the Katana, and I liked it in this review, it's what I'd have bought first if I'd seen it reviewed before splashing the cash.

[@nillermatic18]

The three of you guys should always do shows together. Looks like your having so much fun. I have the Katana 50 and the THR5 and both sound amazing. I live in a wood frame appartment so good sound without having to crank the amp was what I was looking for and both amps do it really well. I like that the yamaha can run on batteries because I use it when I'm watching tv so no cables running across the room.

[@dawng7270]

In another video Lee said that he owns the Yamaha THR10 so I am intrigued by the Yamaha THR5 as it’s even more affordable. Lee found that his Yamaha was better than the Katana. How are you finding the THR5?

[@MikePirnat]

Really liked the room mic again here. Good choice; maybe do more like this?

[@fletches4084]

Bought my son his first rig for Xmas. Revelation LP junior doublecut guitar with Entwistle P90, Epiphone 50W valve head and a 2x12 cab with vintage Fanes in it, all scrounged off ebay and elsewhere. Sounds and plays lovely. Give them something they can be interested in and inspired by and it won't end up sitting in a corner gathering dust.

[@vaporofdeath37]

Great Series!!!

[@noodle845]

Good banter with these 3 dudes 👌

[@urath55]

I actually like the mic setup you're using in these videos! It shows how the amps actually sound in a room

[@jameslewis2635]

That Blackstar ID core sounds so much better than the Fender for similar money it is amazing. Well worth the extra £20 on the cost. Yes, the Fender had more bass but it was also very muddy for the treble side of things. Of course the Katana sounds better than the others but you would expect that for it having a 12 inch speaker.

[@mattwood5493]

James Lewis agree 100% I like the blackstar sound better then katana but the katana is louder and can play with drummer

[@verigone2677]

@@tarunkumaar625 I prefer the Blackstar vs. Fender in this 8" speaker size...but I prefer the Fender Champ 40 to the mid sized Blackstar; though I use my own pedals and preamps so that probably has a lot to do with it. I have noticed the Power Amp section of the Blackstar's have a much more vibrant volume response at lower wattages.

[@billy1858]

I like it not being mic,ed up ,gives you an idea of what they really sound like when you get them home!

[@NagyDani91]

Thank you for the insight, very useful! I have a beginner's question. I'm a bit confused about how much power (watts) one actually needs if they want to use their amps not just at home but also at smaller gigs (like in a bar, small stage, etc.) It would be logical to think that the bigger the hall you perform in, the more watts you need. However, to my recollection, the amplified sound the audience hears almost never actually comes from the speakers of your amp. Instead, the stage will have their own power amplifier system with speakers and the musician's amp is just micophoned up or connected to the mixing console with an equivalent method. Since the microphone is placed directly in front of the guitar amp's speaker, does it even matter if it is a 5 or a 50 watt amplifier? What am I missing here? Thanks in advance.

[@AngusNB]

I have the Blackstar ID:Core 20 in my office and two Katana 50s in my music room. I also have a Yamaha THR10 in the livingroom (wife approved) and a Vox Mini 5 Rhythm. The most important piece is my Chocolate Labrador dog 🐾. She sings along to the tunes she likes. 😀

[@benlogan430]

Angus Black The Vox mini is sweet! I sing, run drum tracks (iPad) and guitar with it! Great for busking!

[@jillybabesno1]

For me with my budget it has to be the fender, I thought I would have chosen the black star but I like the simplicity of the fender mixed with the sweet tone and it's just for home use really. Thanx guys I'm looking for an amp this helped.

[@mikesalt8248]

Champion 20 is special I have owned both the 20 and the 40, if you are in a small unit or flat the 8 inch speaker delivers in spades

[@alphajames33]

I think the dog is the best purchase of all these equipment. He makes sounds on its own. Plus it doesn't run on electricity. Best buy right there!

Been at it since about seventy six. Got about fifteen K of guitars alone, but still really enjoyed this. Stick at it, save yer money, trade wisely and you’ll soon get some great gear.

[@alexdenton6586]

Most of those who play guitar don't have much money and that was my case for many years so my advice would be to all those young (or not so young) who start playing guitar to start modeling on computer You will always have a lot of snobs to tell you that you have to buy a tube amp etc. but the reality is that computer simulators work very well nowadays, it's not like when I started playing guitar more than 10 years ago I take for example Bias FX from Positiv Grid that I use regularly For the equivalent of 200 $ (depending on the software you take it varies) you have access to all pedals you may need and all amps including the same guitar simulator which allows you to play even with a cheap guitar It's even suitable for beginners because even if you don't know how to use this kind of software most of them offer ready-made presets according to the music you are interested in playing And don't listen to the snobes in music, the important thing is that your audience connects to what you do and that you have fun, the rest is irrelevant

[@markmcdonald5711]

I have a IRig micro amp, a ID Core 20 V2, an Orange Crush 12 and a Roland Cube 10GX for practice amps. I think a six inch speaker like the Crush 12 has hits the sweet spot for playing at bedroom levels, it also is all analog with great pick dynamics like my tube amps. My Epiphone LP Special with P-90's sounds great with it.

[@Kelarik]

Big fan of the Katana, and ahve recommended it to a few people, though I tend to suggest the 100 is a much better choice than the 50 for not a whole lot more money

[@isaiahfurrow7414]

The Marshall MG FX amps are pretty nice for starter amps I think... similar to what Captain said about the Fender, more straight forward , with knobs that are more like akin to analog controls of older tech....but allows you to save a preset for each "channel".... to recall that sound later on.... Another I looked into and really thought sounded great, was the Blackstar ID:30TVP... I ended up with the Marshall MG30CFX to start out, as the Blackstar was a good bit more expensive at that time/place. I didn't like the sound of Fender Champion amps for some reason... My thoughts would be to get something fairly small and inexpensive, like what comes in a starter package, or similar.... and then if interest develops into a genuine passion, then save for a nice second amp like a Katana, or something similar with 10-12" speaker... I'm really still enjoying the Marshall, especially with the addition of the footswitch, and now looking into what will be the next steps of our journey....

[@anders2772]

I agree that small amps has come along way since I guess 1993. The state of art was for Marshall the valvestate and my choice was the 8100 100 watt top with a 1960 cab. The idea was not change to much and with a 1960 well the only thing would be the upgrade in amp heads besides transport. Sadly I thought that I am not into lots of different effects so got a Digitech rp 1 multi effect board which I forever tried to dial in the tones I liked. A bit awakening was youtube my first setup to see that the tone really was in the 8100.

[@erictoniaschwab1009]

Anders Jørgensen the 8100 was my first serious amp and it worked really well. Tried the Boss GT3 multi effects back then but they just weren’t good sounding and user friendly the way they are today. The 8100 with a Blues Driver as a solo boost got me through hundreds of gigs.

I got a Boss Katana II 50w. Nice because it has a 0.5W, 25W, and 50W selector. Have access to all the boss effects through USB. Looking for a second amp for my daughter. That fender champion 20 might be the ticket. Who knows.

The Boss Katana 50 is the only one from that cheaper range which I've played with myself, and I couldn't find the measurements/weight. I'm blind, so if this was displayed in your video without you mentioning it, I wouldn't be able to make use of that. Also, when you demo the amps, could you please make sure to describe knob/settings layout in detail (eg top panel from left to right etc)? I'm a casual home player and have been looking into amps, as I used to have a Roland MicroCube, but wasn't happy with it.

But is it really that much better than a Katana? I think the Katana sounds almost as good while being louder and more versatile. You can gig with he Katana, try a bunch of pedals, record...

BOSS Katana 50 is the best non-tube amp value by a long shot. If you spend the money for this amp, whether for beginners or just a practice amp, you won't regret it.

[@erictoniaschwab1009]

Craig M The Katana is an amp that can take you from learning to play on to your first gig and becoming a regularly gigging guitarist. Back in 1997 I bought my first practice amp, then a couple of bigger amps that still didn’t work for gigging until finally getting a Marshall half stack. The Katana is the one amp you’ll ever need. Sure you may graduate to a tube amp one day, but the Katana works great live.

Thanks for this series; my niece has currently got the bug to learn guitar she's 10 and I said I'd get her guitar and amp; my question on this choice of amps would be would the extra weight of lugging the katana to friends houses etc put her off wanting to play? My shortlist was already the Katana 50 or B* ID20 and either a Jackson Minion Dinky or a Squier Bullet. Pete and Justin instantly seemed to have more fun with those two amps. Decisions decisions arghhhh!

[@anonymousforensic]

Basil BeDemented Katana is light and it’s so easy to dial in - you can do as much or as little as you want - either just picking a channel with the dial or downloading sound packs and pedal setups online. The 0.5w inside practice setting or 50w power jump are super useful. Then it’s an easy resell if she falls away from guitar.

[@MikePirnat]

Basil BeDemented I played a Squier Bullet Tele recently and was really surprised by how good it was OOTB; decent setup and shockingly playable neck. Not a fan of the factory-installed strings though, would definitely replace them, but everything else was quite good for the price.

I just picked up an 'As New' Vox Pathfinder 10 for £25, after using a Blackstar Fly 3 for the last two years. The Vox, even at full price (around £70), is probably all the practice amp I will ever need. Great tones. Still have a desire for a Yamaha THR10ii though. . .

Also...I think I prefer the way things are mic'd up here. Sounds like I was in a pub listening to you play. ...you guys do pub rock?

Also also: I could listen to that bit at 14:50 all year.

Since your videos are heavy audio related, could you post a high quality MP3 of your videos on your website for us to download. This would we could hear the un-Yahoo processed audio. Ten we could "watch" the KZbin video while listening to unprocess downloaded audio file.

When are we getting part 3?

I have a black star id core 100wat amp I bought it after my 1st practice amp because of that practice amp I was completely ready to get rid of

[@aeroshack]

Plugged into the same amp right now... love it, a bit much for home use but who cares :)

[@steeftop2451]

I’m wanting to buy a tube amp for home use, any recommendations?

How do you make it sounds so good your playing

[@pekuja]

Hey, a while back Rabea and Pete compared the Fender Champion 50XL against the Boss Katana 50, and they seemed to think the Champion comes out on top. Is there any particular reason you included the Katana in this lineup instead of the Champion?

Ibanez GRX20...hands down one of the best guitars for beginners. It's got great action, a good board, dual humbuckers that sound good, and only cost 120 pounds.

6:00 - thank you. I certainly don't have the ear of these professionals, but I did not notice a difference at all.
