Warranty Info

One thing that’s often mentioned when speaking of the Katana is its wide range of features. The amp includes five amp models: Acoustic, clean, crunch, lead, and brown. Mic’d cabinet emulation on the USB and phones/recording outputs, with three Air Feel settings available in BOSS Tone Studio The Katana Head is the same as the 100, but in head form. This allows you to hook the Head to your preferred cabinet. This way you can get the Katana’s sound running through different speakers or more speakers at a time. The Head also includes a tiny speaker that can be used for practice, so you can leave your cab at the rehearsal space while still being able to practice at home, for instance. Stage-class 50-watt combo amp with GA-FC/GA-FC EX Foot Controller support, Stereo Expand, and line output with cabinet emulation Boss are most renowned for their guitar pedals, and the company has crammed a bunch of its high-quality effects into its Katana amplifiers. Taking it to the next level with the MkII series, you can now use five different effects simultaneously rather than just three -giving you the power of a massive pedalboard inside your amp!

The Katana-50 features line, USB, and phones/recording outputs with mic’d cabinet emulation, allowing you to send mix-ready amp tones to a PA system, computer DAW, or headphones. Connecting to BOSS Tone Studio provides access to three different Air Feel settings, letting you shape the tonal character of the direct sound to suit any performance scenario. The Version 3 update further enhances the direct USB capabilities, offering true stereo sound with many of the Katana’s modulation, EQ, delay, and reverb effects, including the newly added DC-30 Analog Chorus-Echo. BOSS Tone Central I am still of a mind that Boss’s Katana Range of Amps are the best option for home-play / practice amp - and deliver a combination of features and performance that no other brand has really caught up with yet. Some have come close - while for me the overall coverage and character of these amps sill reigns supreme. And in terms of a value-proposition is still way out in front of the chasing mob.The cabinet is made of quality MDF wood. It’s very sturdy yet light. The main cab is covered in a plastic skin that’s reminiscent of Tolex, except it’s much harder and smoother. After that come the effects. There’s two buttons: ‘booster’ (overdrive/distortion) and ‘mod’ (modulation effects like chorus and flanger). The second set of buttons has an ‘FX’ and ‘delay’ section. These do exactly what they describe. The FX are effects, same with the mod knob. However, this includes more effects, like compressors and a second EQ section. For optimal performance, stay up to date with the current Katana Mk II system software and BOSS Tone Studio

It only gets better. BOSS are committed to giving you the best possible experience, which is why they've created a free update to expand the Katana's capabilities. This update to the Boss Tone Studio app brings a host of new features: It’s really really loud. Personally, I’ve been able to easily get over a loud drummer and bass player with a 4×15 cab at not even half the total volume.It sounds good at low volume as well. Even at the lowest possible setting on the 0.5 watt setting sounds pretty darn good. This amp is easily enough for playing at bars and even small/medium sized halls. Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty The ‘crunch’ channel is a little thinner sounding than the clean, and it’s the least good sounding channel in my opinion. This doesn’t mean it’s bad, but it’s not as impressive as the rest of the channels. The Katana 50 can switch from 0.5 watts, to 25 and 50 watts allowing you to play at any volume. All the other models have 100 watts, which can attenuate to 50 or 0.5 watts for lower volume.
