Would you (cough cough) perhaps consider sharing the preset?

Thanks!    The guitar is an old model built by Rocketfire guitars., strung with 10-42  Check them out, their pickups and build are awesome.

I've used the {Katana} crunch channel with gain around 10 O'Clock and volume around noon.  Spring reverb

and (@ 1:33 min) Blues Drive boost a bit above half way.

On the EQ side, i left the highs at about 8 O'Clock (very low) and presence at zero.

I used the 100W config with low volume (around 2),

Recorded with  one (Beyerdynamic opus 39 ) dynamic mic in the center of the speaker and one (Sennheiser e609) Ribbon mic in the back of the amp. into Scarlet 2nd gen too.  This config was intended to remove a bit of the fizzy highs you'll probably find when mic-ing this amp. Cheers!

With the 1x12 I have not experienced muddiness, but for recording you can feel some fizzy highs that are a bit annoying and had to be corrected with EQ.  Nevertheless, the Katana is a great amp for its intended purpose (practical, relatively cheap and with some good tones) Thanks again for listening..
