The Catalyst family includes three dual-channel combo amplifiers that perform like traditional guitar amps while providing the increased versatility of modern amplifiers. From the 200-watt Catalyst 200, capable of holding its own on nearly any stage, to the 60-watt Catalyst 60, which is perfect for practice, recording, and performing in small venues - there's a Catalyst amp for every player.

The Catalyst 60 combo amplifier performs like a traditional guitar amp, while providing the increased versatility of a modern amp. Catalyst amplifiers offer six Original Amp Designs - ranging from pristine clean to modern high-gain - crafted using the renowned Line 6 HX sound design techniques to ensure exceptional tone and feel. These powerful and sturdily constructed combos are equally suited for stage or studio use, and feature an XLR line output and a 4-channel USB recording interface. Also included are Boost circuits customized for each amp type, a dedicated Reverb section with six reverb types, 18 additional effects, an effects loop, a Power Amp input for using Catalyst as a powered speaker, MIDI capabilities, and power attenuation options for playing at any volume. The free Catalyst Edit app for desktop and mobile devices provides deep editing capabilities.

Features
• Six Line 6 Original Design Amp Voicings, from sparkling clean to the highest of high gain, with a custom-tailored boost control
• Six banks of two channels for a total of twelve preset locations
• Six high quality, custom-curated reverbs
• Six custom delays
• Six modulation effects
• Six pitch shift and filter effects
• Power Amp In feature that allows you to connect external effects pedals, pedalboards, or amp and effects processors (such as Line 6 Helix, HX Stomp, or POD Go) direct to the power amplifier for the cleanest amplification of your modeling
• XLR Direct Output with cabinet emulation to connect to a PA mixer or recording device
• USB audio interface for recording and editing
• FX Loop for use with external effects
• MIDI In jack for use with external MIDI controller devices (CATALYST 100 and 200 only- note that all CATALYST models offer MIDI In via USB)

My father and I recently each bought one of these 60w Catalyst amps, checked them out and so far impressed with them. Good clean and slightly dirty sounds, the reverb is good, fairly easy to use and dial in our preferred sound and tone, getting into the more advanced adjustments and changing effects isn’t as intuitive as it could be but a small learning curve to get to those options. Very loud for the size and cost of these things, we’ve found at home running them on the 1/2 watt rear attenuator setting is more than enough volume for home use and going the full 60 watts is loud, enough to get serious noise complaints from the neighbours lol. Only gripe is we wish these amps came with a cover and the dual button foot switch, even if the amps had cost another $100 this would have been worth it. Bought the amp covers off a USA music retailer that had them in stock. For the price considering the amp by itself it’s a very good deal. Seems like it would be loud enough for a rehearsal, garage band, small to medium sized gigs etc. Has the XLR out on the rear, along with a bunch of other options, very handy and opens up many performance and recording options. Over all a great digital amp and worth the money we feel. Try one out and see what you think.

This is a really great amp. The models, effects and surprisingly good speaker is the best value amp anyone can buy. What separates it from the Katana 50 is the FX Loop and Power Amp In. It can also get really loud.

Performance Warranty Banner

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty

A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.

Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.

How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
  • Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
  • Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
  • No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
  • Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
  • Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
  • Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
  • Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
  • Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
  • Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
 

Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.

Purchasing additional years of coverage

Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.

If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:

  • NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
  • USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
  • GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
  • BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
