Cab resonance calibration looks really cool!

The combos are great. SW had one in-stock the last time I was there, but I didn't get a chance to try it.

I had one for about 6 months and just sold it over the holidays. Had tons of tonal options, but the gain choices were… not good. Figure if “not good” is what Im getting might as well stick with my Spark.

If I used a clean tone, though, I would have loved it.

Interesting. I really liked the one my son and I played. Different strokes, I suppose.

The clean tones were fantastic. Im just really picky about my bass gain tones.

A combo for metal bass is probably going to be lackluster no matter what I'd think?

If you don’t use gain/dirt/whatever ya wanna call it, the Katana bass combo is awesome. Sounds thick, rich, full and gets crazy loud.

Mine works great for guitar also
