Description
A serious alternative to buying a tube amplifier. If you're considering a tube amp head but your budget is under $1200, it's definitely worth thinking about buying the Katana Artist instead...The tone is glorious (hard to believe there's no valves in there!), better than the majority of cheap-ish tube amps out there in the world.
Plus there's no ongoing maintenance costs and WAY more features to play with!
