The Katana guitar amps are a really good value. I picked up a Katana 50 a while ago for $50 at a pawn shop to mess around with before I resold it. It did a lot of sounds, had power rated in tube watts, could be run at 50/25/0.5 watts, was compact and lightweight with a lot of features, decent soundi...

Not sure why people would wanna buy an amp from a pedal manufacturer though?

Pretty much every local shop I know, the Katana has been their best selling guitar amp for the past 5 years by a pretty wide margin. I don't think the Bass line has had nearly as much success though.

Nice! Congratulations for finding such a clean AF9! The options look very similar to these of my two beloved KORG Dist Wah modules KDW-301. And the Meat Box does always look so crazy and cool at the same time. :lol: Thanks. The AF9 had the box and was one of the cheaper ones I had come across that ...

Picked up another Behringer PB1000 board to fill and whittling down the wish list for the rest of my collection.

Finished up my DOD collection (aside from 1 more PRC-6 board) and slowly whittling away at my Ibanez 9 Series. Replaced my AD9 reissue with a vintage one and grabbed this AF9 recently.

Today I received a Japanese Vesta Fire DST Distortion pedal that I purchased for a fair price at ebay. I had no big expectations, but man! This is one of the few pedals that make my guitar sing ! If there were no signal bleed in bypass mode with gain above 02:00 it would be an almost perfect pedal....

Ongoing saga... it is the later year SD-2s that have R100, C100, etc. I managed to get a 1998 in a trade. I also seem to remember having one a long time ago that had a component soldered to the traces side of the board that appeared to be factory done. I was able to find some old threads on various ...

Pulled the service notes for the SD-2 with a date of May 1993 and those do not have the R100 either. I think I'm going to abandon this one from the variant hunt. Ended up overpaying (IMO) for a super clean August 1993 w/ box/manual, only to have it not be the variation and also lost the tone shootou...

Just got one from August 1993 and it also does not have R100.

That is a great deal.

I plan to get one of these but also plan to wait until I can snag a used one for $100-120, or to get it as a bday or xmas gift.
