Perfect for All Situations! - Boss Katana 500w Bass Head!

[@user-rv5ok2he6x]

I bought this head from Andertons a month ago. It's superb! Properly loud and SO versatile (some would say too versatile). The bluetooth app opens it up for live work more than I thought it would.

[@CiciVonStrangelove]

Enjoyed demoing this!

[@sippinthefnordies]

I really like that you all have added a drummer to these bass review vids. Keep up the great work CiCi and Lee, I always enjoy yalls work.

[@LasseHuhtala]

Oh man! You can't believe for how long I've been waiting and begging Boss to make a bass head. And now It's here.

[@davidshigo3150]

that intro jam was fuckin' gorgeous !!!! lee is actually a very good guitar player !!!! should do this more guys !!!!

[@dasninjastix]

Love the style switch up on the intro jam, sounded great too!

[@hushpuppykl]

I think this is a wonderful unit. Love the sounds that it can deliver. Some may not be that high quality but at a live gig, no one notices at all. Then with 3 presets, that means you got 4 tailored sounds at your disposal. If it were a true 500w @ 4ohms this baby is perfect for medium sized gigs. Pair it up with a 2x10 & a 1x15. Am so keen to get this head. No more pedals! Just a foot switch.

[@Riverking1]

Good to see CiCi on again!

[@StephenMarkTurner]

Like to hear it with that legendary refrigerator size Ampeg 8 x 10 cab.

[@andrewpinner3181]

Thanks Lee, thanks Cici, finger funk, some nice sounds, & a solid review !

[@BigD-lc4oh]

Well CiCi sure knows her sh!t. She’s the perfect spokesperson. Good on ya’

[@user-fd6tg3rn4m]

CC as usual in control, loved the vid guys.

[@BenKrisfield]

Great Demo. Sounds Good.

[@jmccaintx]

Great bass, head, playing, and demo

[@Eth_C]

That’s a funny looking 6 string bass that Lee is using.

[@TexTroll]

does he normally play 6ers? i dig that Sire myself

[@stevenbird1431]

Sounds Great!!! Awesome demo🎸👍

[@TheBrianLlewellyn]

Oh come on! One of the only backing tracks I have are Cici playing her bass! I didn't know she was famous! I am telling the world about my GOD MOD tomorrow you all! Everyone will know how to mod their tube amp with my GOD MOD tubes to change their tone to a professional level amplifier! You can get different sounds unheard of yet! Guy who set up tube amps for the live shows of Metallica and Kiss taught me this! I feel everyone should know! Hey Cici? I don't know if bass tube amps work with my GOD MOD! I would think my GOD MOD does work though with bass amps if they are tube! I hope you can get my GOD MOD to work for you Cici! So many new different sounds for everyone! All you do is change your tubes & bias your amp! And I will show you how tubes only can change your sound completely if you want! Thanks Cici & everyone else! Take care & enjoy what you all hear!

[@damasterkarej]

When you hear Pete, but that's Skinny Lee :)

[@stanknugget]

Are you saying there’s a Fat Lee?

[@damasterkarej]

@@stanknugget that's Captain's word. The 'skinny Lee'.

[@daniellavanderos]

love your videos

[@lockharthorsburgh8601]

It looks and sounds good. Slightly (only slightly) disappointed that it doesn't have an effects loop on the back of the amp; the Katana bass combos have those so it feels like they may have missed a trick (although the on-board effects sound pretty good).

[@stevecullen]

I'm not looking for an amp like this but it sounds great. I have a friend who plays a Katana guitar amp live and he swears by it especially for the range of tones and versatility. Great to see a head option for bass. I love Cici but miss the frequency and length of the bass videos you guys used to do with Nathan and Lee...

[@soulstart89]

I went into central London to try both the combos and this head. All these buttons gave me a headache. The combo is class A/B and head class D. The sound different. I may have to try it again but I just became frustrated. On the frequency of vids and length I fully agree. To me it feels like this channel has moved even more towards guitars than before.

[@PretendingToBeCanadian69]

刀 never disappoints! Neither does 技...

[@bforsy]

Great sounding amp.

[@TheDarkKnight73]

Can we buy that sire bass😮

[@fraenkiboii]

My first thought when you turned the drive up: Jamiroquai Deeper Underground 🦖

[@TheStratpicker]

Forget the amp, those stools look super cool!

[@ZappaBlues]

Roland/Boss has really thought this one out.

[@SamLau]

Could you all do a demo on KATANA-500 BASS HEAD paired with MarkBass Cabs? Thanks so much!

[@BassRacerx]

why the clickbait video title? I'm very curious how a Boss ME90B connected straight into a PA power amp would compare to this head.

[@valendis]

I kinda want one!

[@Thisisswanbon]

How stupidly good is Lee though?!

[@Thiscopower]

i keep hearing this subtle cheap high freq range over every setting

[@TheDevnul]

Katana head, Genzler Kinetix, Orange terror Arrrrrrrrgghhhh I don’t know what to choose😢

[@themigwel6185]

Can’t seem to find that Sire model. Looks lovely.

[@xevilashx]

I tried zooming in on the head with my laptop, used the camera zoom on my phone, and looked at the Sire site. I couldn't figure it out either. Hopefully they'll do a review video with it.

[@rachitbhengra4298]

its Sire V10

[@xevilashx]

@@rachitbhengra4298you sure? The pickup configuration doesn’t look like it.

[@rachitbhengra4298]

@@xevilashx V10 is new series and site only shows new model for now, it possible this one to be custom made or old version or prototype. But its definitely a V10. Drop mail to andertons maybe they can shed some light.

[@maikfohnan1415]

What basses were used? An Ibanez Soundgear and a Marcus Miller with nice tops. Could you name it please?

[@OonaEskeli]

It's a Sire V10 Alder-5 but it's custom one that Lee owns.

[@sgt.grinch3299]

Interesting

[@mdbn3t]

All the cool kids who rock a 2×10 cab put it upright vertically like this with the head on top, and every manufacturer of 2x10 bass cabs puts the logo and little rubber feet so that it's designed to sit horizontally. Who's right?

[@gckshea]

Like it matters?

[@reginaldbowls7180]

Can should be vert!

[@klaymeister]

Ahh I had a Line 6 Lowdown amp. Worst purchase lol

[@ramonurchipia]

I miss the reviews with Nathan

[@damonstewart70]

Cici is beautiful

[@mildmanneredjanitor0]

Maiden Voyage

[@funkinmonks64]

does anyone think ( sorry forget his name) that gars looks like Backpacker Bens older brother ?

[@evanward4303]

bAss katana

[@michaeledmondsonrock]

Jaco Pastorius would have bought this and then taped the bass cut on full for maximum pokieness.

[@ryanteacher8134]

The guitar in the intro jam has amazing tone, didn't even listen to the bass lol

[@nowhearthis5067]

Doesn’t anyone play the low strings these days on a bass?

[@iamonke8715]

Way overpriced for what it is. I would still go for an Ampeg, Aguilar of a Markbass over this thing

[@smoothgroover00]

Wouldn't pay five quid for this amp.

[@christogeorgekurian]

not even a bass player.

[@caknut]

who

[@christogeorgekurian]

@@caknut yours truly

[@stanknugget]

This intro “jam” is really weird.

[@IscariottActual]

Definitely not the direction i would go to try and sell me a bass head...

[@nathbomb8958]

Would've been nice if you had actual musicians to test the gear out..

[@Infectedbyevil]

Perfect amp ! But why does her reaction to every action start with 'ha-ha-ha' ?🤔

[@thewrongbike7709]

Possibly she knows in her hear that most of these features are just toys that she would never use. She wants a great bass tone, she gets quirky gimics. Its funny.

[@xevilashx]

Because she's having fun?

[@Infectedbyevil]

@xevilashx 😂😂😂 looks strange , drug or some physical problems. Her hahaha for almost every response 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

[@MoJoBardrews]

Stop making reviews of bass gear
