It’s because the speaker is garbage. The speaker in the Artist alone makes it worth the upgrade. I’ve played plenty of gigs with my Artist and have surprised other guitars with the tone it can get. I even recorded with it. I also have a Fender CS Champ, a Fender Bassbreaker, and a Bad Cat Cub so I’m not short on options. If I go on tour this year, I’m only taking one and it’s the Katana Artist. Of course there’s better sounding amps for the money (pro jr, classic 30), but if you want a reliable, flexible, and sturdy amp, you’d be hard pressed at the price point. Plus it takes care of half my pedal board. Though, I don’t think I’d buy it if I weren’t a gigging guitarist. It’s pretty overkill for a home guitarist and there’s much better options.

I’d say it can compete with “proper” amp’s. It is a proper amp after all. Once it’s got a mic in front, a bit of EQ, and it’s placed in a mix… I doubt you would even know it was a cheap one. Obviously if I wanted, let’s say a Dumble SSS sound with clean feedback, it ain’t going to achieve it. But neither is a £5,000 plexi from ‘59. It’s all about the sound your after. Edit: Sylvia Massy’s recording techniques should help dispel the myth that you need an expensive amp. She’ll run a signal through a pickle… You don’t need to spend an arm & leg for good tone.

Genuinely pleased to see this. I got really annoyed by the original version because they walked past a £250 Fender Vaporizer tube amp while saying "you can't do tube for under £500". I even threw a treble booster, strap and cables into my valve 2x10 budget and had change for my £500 garage-punk gigrig. ;) So it's really gratifying to see the Cap has managed at long last to match my £500 valve glory in this challenge. Cap'n. I salute you. In case anyone is wondering, I ended up owning the Fender Vaporizer and a treble-booster (though my own handbuilt germanium rangemaster, not the Screaming Bird from my £500 rig) and have been rocking that set up for nearly a decade. So I stand by my original rig list. :D

I'd only go with the orange if your absolute favorite artist plays an orange, and you want a budget version of their amp. All Orange amps sound very similar, imo. Otherwise, the orange crush heads are 100 watts, and sell for about 450 alone. I mean, neither one is bad or the "wrong choice" I just think the Bugeras are my preferred choice because they make changing tubes so damn easy lol... but I'm an idiot.

Got my super slick blacked out bullet strat for $110 shipped to my house a couple years ago. It was a great buy, despite a few minor issues that luckily i can fix on my own. Hardly use it now, poor thing. Also, If you have a PA and know how to use a Mic, then any amp is technically gigable. I have gigged with a 15 watt fender frontman with not problem. Looks silly but works. I prefer to have a quieter stage so I don't have to crank my monitors or strain my vocals to hear myself sing. If I'm not singing, then I try to think about the person that is. Now I run in-ear-monitors and the whole experience is now even better, and the soundscape is so much better. People that think they need a 4x12 and 100+watts really don't know much about sound waves, are obviously not concerned about the damage to their ears. Leave the high db's for front of house and keep your stage at the lowest levels possible. Some will say, "Why work your PA so hard?" Well I say if your PA can't handle it then you need to upgrade from 8" speakers to 15's. You don't need to spend a millions dollars to get a really good sound. Other than that, good sounds created for budget. I like it. Behringer has been doing well with Bugera amps.

The only guitar/amp not worth buying is the one you’re too scared to use or doesn’t inspire you and never get out off by opinions you do you and everyone else can do what they fancy
