Line 6ā€™s Catalyst series is the latest in a generation of amplifiers bridging the gap between digital modelingā€™s enormous possibilities and many playersā€™ desires for old-school simplicity. These amps offer detailed, convincing amp modelsā€”but not too many of themā€”in a compact, vintage-style design that makes avoidance of option fatigue a priority. The very accessible prices also make the series a direct competitor to Bossā€™ ultra-successful Katana amps. The Catalyst is offered in three models: Catalyst 60 and Catalyst 100 (both of which have one 12" speaker), and the Catalyst 200, which has two 12" speakers. For this review I tested the Catalyst 100, which sells for a very modest $399.
