Your warm-up is longer than my actual guitar practice!

1:14 "your Walkman or your MiniDisc"????? Ola lives in 1995 guys!!!!!!!He timetravels!!!!!

"This is the Boss Meanie Katana"

I just picked this up, and within the first few minutes of playing I was blown away. Thanks for opening my ears to this little demon.

finally something I can plug my walkman into and play along to tapes!

I LOVE mine! I've tried different instruments through it and it brings out a clarity of tone. Only day 3, but each time I plug into it I feel QUITE pleased.

I literally just bought a Katana 50 today. But let me say that I tried the Katana Mini as well in the store and HOLY SHIT when I flipped it to the Brown setting. Didn't even bother with the clean and crunch anymore coz the Brown setting sounds phenomenal from such a small amp. Destroys any other small amp like the Blackstar Fly out there.

Finally a good sounding amp I can fit in my fanny pack.

I bought one of these when I bought my first guitar back in November, and I find it awesome!

Walkman or minidisc...I feel like being back in 1995.

Had mine for a couple years now. It’s by far the best practice amp I’ve ever used.

So when is the 1W nano satan coming?

Finally a amp that will take my WalkMan and MiniDisc!

“...your walkman, or your minidisc...” Genius..

I've got this, and trust me, if you are on a budget, this little guy should do the trick! 😉👍

Ola:my practice amp and it’s great Me:The katana is my full fledged rig😭

That's just so accurate...the best practice amp, never saw something like this amp since the Roland Kube or the pignose, only that the Katana is lighter, friendlier with effects, and way more solid...

Randall satan mini?

Sounds amazing with an overdrive clean-boosting the front: wow!!!

I'd say it sounds pretty great, got the 100w version and its kinda mindblowing considering the price.

Walkman, wow haven’t heard of this word for a long time besides from the movie “Guardians of the Galaxy”. I was lucky enough to have used the walkman before, and then MP3 players, then iPod then finally today everything is clouded. Anyway, I owned the Katana Mini too, super awesome mini amp. I use the Boss GT-1 with it connected not through the front of house but at the rear via the Auxiliary, really great sounding.

Absolutely love mine. Enough volume to match your un amplified voice for busking. It is also small enough to walk and play. It also works great as a preamp for a louder speaker Only design flaw. Placement of powder switch means it is way too easy to turn the amp on while you're putting it away That means dead batteries when you go to use it again .Add something to shield switch from accidental power ons. Huge success in a micro amp; excellent clear tone. A friend, way better than me, couldn't help from sitting there envying the tone of this little amp against his Street Cube amp. Yeah, volume is stronger on bigger, more expensive amps. But, that is not the point of an amp lighter and smaller than your kid's lunch box.

Just picked one up used and traded my Blackstar Fly 3w. Katana is awesome and so portable. Sound tone much better than others in this class. Your demo put me into the buyer column Way to chug 🎸🤘

The huge presence of the Katana mini on KZfaq is going let me buy one sooner or later I guess. Damn it's always kind of depressing to notice how marketing actually works

What a great a great sounding little amp! Thanks for the great demo!

1:40 I was watching this in a quiet room with headphones and laughed out loud for like a half second at this part. Everyone gave me a wired look.😂

finally i can jam with my walkman

just picked one up for 60 quid and it blew me away! Was expecting to need an overdrive having being disappointed with the fly 3 but it doesn't

Sounds awesome that does. Ive just ordered one after seeing this video. I must say your guitar playing is mint and you are so funny at times, great entertainment. Good work

*Unless playing live gigs, high wattage amps are obsolete for most people. Even 4x4s are mic’ed or DI’ed, anyway, so tone is more important than power.*

Thanks for the advice!! It sounded great! And love your riffs.

Ola plays this amp like a BOSS 🤘

I got mine on as a birthday gift, loved the demonstration Ola. \m/

Okay, I get it. Katana Mini sure is a convenient little practice cube. Battery go anywhere deal. Most little amps this size sound as if you are playing a large over-driven rig through a boom box and are excellent at giving a feel that is practice worthy for these sounds. This is something that has been perfected by several companies in the past ten years. My IDEA(Emphasis) is how would it sound using this as a pre-amp(overdrive or voicing Pedal)? The headphone line out on most of these mini's have speaker emulation built in. So I am wondering about using this as a pre-amp into a clean channel of a real tube amp and traditional 4x12 or more? ...or even into a pa? ...But more importantly, as a pre-amp.

Sounds Amazing, thinking about buying one to practice my guitar

I wanted to hear the sound without a mic condenser, I mean with the cam's mic. Also, it would great if had a comparison of it. I think this amp is awesome at least for the size (maybe the price idk). I liked

I just ordered one. Don't let me down Ola!!!

Ola rules. Just the man I wanted to review this amp. Thank you!

1:01 That's what she said.

Perfect!!!! Minidisc compatable!!!!!

I'm so excited, I came across this review and ordered mine immediately!

Hi this is Milias from India.... I love watching all your video... I enjoyed a lot and gain more knowledge about music instrument. Love from India thank you so much for all the videos.

I have one. Cool little amp. Gonna be having some jams in my wall tent on my off grid mountain land. Yay battery power. Cmon out :-)

I’d love to see this compared to some other options e.g. the tiny black star fly 3 as I would like a tiny amp for living room jams. Atm I am using interface + laptop + Bluetooth speaker and it’d be sooooo much easier to just plug into a tiny amp

I was looking for something to plug my Walkman and Mini Disc, thanks Ola. Much appreciated

Köpte en idag för att rocka loss i båten i sommar! Underbar lite stärkare!

fortin grind into katana mini please XD

are you kidding me, this little thing is just so so versatile

Thank you Ola for making this video before Christmas, it will be perfect with my Anygig to play in the subway ;p

Hey Ola could you do a comparison video of the Boss Mini Katana and the Blackstar Fly 3. And let us know what you like best.

Olas eyes on the touring part reminded me why I have touring.

cool stuff i bought one when they first came to canada and they rule

Your playing in this sounded epic...always sound good, but this was super good.

I’m just starting guitar , I’ve ordered this as my first amp , will it be good for a beginner ??

I've been looking for a really good battery powered mini amp to use when recording guitar playthru videos outside, & hey I think you just sold me on this one, so much better than the Orange one I was looking at.

Not the biggest fan of boss distortions but it sounds pretty good honestly.

That sounds sick

1:40 Ah yes the classic milk beer whisky vodka mix after a show to get intimate with the toilet.

how does it compare to the microcube?

"Walkman or minidisc" :D :D :)))))) Joke of the year candidate remark from Ola. :))))

Good review (as always). Liked the sound and added to my wishlist :)

jajajaj walkman or minidisc??

I feel like a reverb would have been better than delay but it sounds great for the size

Katana mini Vs THR10X ? I have a Blackstar Fly 3 and love it!

something really about that crunch channel, I think seeing your vid might have influenced i buy one.

Every try a Blackstar Fly 3? Same basic idea. 3 solid state watts, digital delay, clean/crunch, ISP eq knob. Not high gain, but it takes pedals well and definitely sounds pretty decent!

I'm not a big effects guy and have pretty limited space at home so this seems perfect to have as a practice amp

I see you with that ancient black magic

Review and vlog together, that’s an interesting combo

That seems pretty good for that particular purpose. I think I would use a multifx unit and headphones though. You know what would be even more awesome for warming up? If Joyo made a tiny combo version of the Zombie...

Besides being a good demo, this video was pretty damn funny.

Why isnt your guitar in the description but your chair is?

Dang i might just buy one of these. I sold my bugera v5 and my monoprice 15w tube is a lil too loud and with no headphone out

Not gonna lie. I just watched this video although I try to catch all of yours, and realized that room looks like same one from the movie Green Room...where that punk band gets held up by some bad dudes. Chills man!!!! great video though as usual!

I have this beast of amp I love it it beats the mini I had a few years ago

I’m stuck between this one and the Blackstar Fly 3. Both sound pretty cool

Just last night I tried the Boss Katana Mini, the Vox 3w, Roland cube, and some kind of Orange mini amp. The Boss sounded better than I expected, but the Vox had a better overall sound quality in my opinion. Take from that what you want, or don't..

Duck ...that fistortion tone was really dabulous

Hi! I'm a beginner/average player and I just bought my first electric guitar. I'm looking for a decent bedroom amp with some built-in effects in it to play around. Would Yamaha THR5 do the job? Or should I look for something like Boss Katana 50? I don't want the amp to be too loud since I'm playing pretty much only at home. Nevertheless it would be nice if it was capable to produce decent volumes when needed. Suggestions? :/

Awesome video...i hope you'll do a katana 50 or 100 video soon \m/

Walkman and minidisk Oh shit that takes me back

5:25 which solo is that I've been looking for it.

C'mon Ola could make a Marshall mini battery OP amp sound epic.

Many records uses small amp to get huge wall of sound. It looks can apply here.

Thanks ola man I just bought one epic !

Ola is definitely high, just look at his eyes😂

Who has a minidisc in 2017? Just curious :)

Quick question: is it only battery powered? Or can you also plug it?

The Katana Mini came today, I wasn't pleased with it's sound to be honest. But I plugged it in a Boss GT-100 and I managed to make such a good tones. This thing is really, really loud what the fuck....

I prefer that recorded sound to a digital software amp model... am I crazy?

I might have to consider this one. I've been looking at the Roland micro cube gs.

Looks like this Will be my kids first amp!:)

Try this in clean channel witch the Mooer Radar. U know... For science.

I love my Katana Mini.

Very Amazing Katana Mini guitar amp with a powerful sound for a small amplifier.

BOSS, sound is amazing👌

Man that sounds as good as my mini studio monitors do sometimes with Bias FX so I'll probably get one in I ever want to busk one day with my guitar. The best thing about it is the price which is good for what you get. Idk how this would be for Jazzy tones but it's pretty good for other tones. I could not get good tones with my Jazz guitar with the default cleans on a bigger katana so I wonder how this would sound with one of my hollow body guitars. I would have to mod a bigger katana with the app for it to get better jazzy tones honestly 😂 For versatility I'd still say that Mesa amps are were that's at 😂 or Bias FX or Plini's new plugin 😂🤘 One of my old guitar teachers who was super good at teaching theory to me played a Mesa amp with a Jazz guitar at some gig and it sounded so sick.

Do the head next ola that would be awesome!!

This or roland microcube or voc mini amps for busking?

Nice review. I'm looking at a used one, less than a year old for $50 and real close to me on Market Place..... batteries in the amp, power cord and a guitar lead. I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on this bad boy . . . . . . . . . hmmm
