HB-40MFX : Boss Katana on the budget

3 years ago

So, I'm a big fan of budget equipment. Sometimes it happens that a piece of equipment that you get cheaply is not worth a cent, and sometimes you are pleasantly surprised by the quality and features of a piece of equipment that you paid ridiculously little for.

I expected a lot from the Harley Benton HB-40MFX, watching the video announcements and following what the buyer should get with this amplifier. And I was pleasantly surprised that such a piece of equipment can. Maybe a small drawback is that it doesn't have a send/return loop, but that already belongs to my view of what equipment should be.

Adjusting the effects may seem a bit clumsy at first, but you quickly get used to the logic of the settings.

All in all, a very good home practice amplifier, quiet enough, but loud enough to surely attract the attention of the neighbors when you turn it up a little harder. ;-)
