There’s nothing better on the market right now in this price range that even remotely interests me. Just but the damn thing…everyone needs one! Yes the reccomended AC adapter PSB-120 does add some interference that disappears when you touch the strings. I have tried hooking into a ground to the ground screw on the unit that I created in my shed but didn’t solve the problem. Also found this issue went away when you touch the ground screw on the rear. This is not a huge issue really, just slightly annoying…just keep your hands on the strings or metal parts on guitar. I just rest my palm on the bridge of my Stratocaster. This issue isn’t apparent when using batteries. I suggest using rechargeable batteries.

KATANA-AIR EX

It gives 7w of power througha 4" speaker however that speaker has been optimised for the guitar so that you avoid thin, tinny guitar sounds. 3-Channels & Delay The addition of a basic delay is what makes this amp is nifty to practice with. It gives your tone a little bit more space and makes it that much more pleasing to the ear - especially when you're practicing those Van Halen runs on the Brown channel. From Home To Hotel

Well, I believe Boss knew that as well. This is not the amp you want to drop or leave it lying on the stage at your next gig. The delay is awesome…absolutely trippy and awesome. Who cares if it doesn’t have reverb it has DELAY!!! You can get a reverb pedal…overdrive pedal…whatever. For me it is a toy, which plays much better than I would except from the toy of that size. I am using it mainly in my house when I want to play not in the room where my standard amp is standing (i.e. in my son's room when I am putting him to sleep, this amp is perfect for this purpose).
