  • The solo boost is useless without a footswitch and i dont even know if the footswitch does it. But whos gonna stop before a solo and press a button on the amp… no one… I'll use my clean boost pedal

  • shit, I didn't even have to click on the video to know that a dude playing a stratocaster would be demoing the amp. starting in clean tone. too.

  • The entire Katana thing is better considered to be modeller of moderate ability with a speaker attached is all, the so called bypass is silly because those of us who know most assuredly know any half decent modeller at minimum requires full range or a two way cab to let it do it's thing properly.
    If they put a switchable tweeter on the output behind the grill cloth it would be a little monster for sure.
    It's could be done as a slight mod afterwards I suppose, the best modeller Boss have ever released is still without doubt the GT-1….end of report! I'm personally running a GT-1 into a pair of killer P.A.. 15'' 2 way cabs with an original Boss FA-1 as the only missing sorcery on the chain and it's more than already been murdering every boutique rig available….tubes included!

  • Wait, the boss also emulates a mic’s cab? Modelers just can’t do a simple amp anymore can they? ????????‍♂️

  • A lot of obviously ad videos on YT. Their sales of Gen 3 must be not that good as expected… No wonder. It's just not worth an upgrade. So mostly people who don't have katana yet are buying. No rapid spike in sales therefore.

    As a mk2 owner I anticipated stuff like:
    – Ability to set different tones settings for different booster/compressor types (green, red, orange)
    – More GA/FC functions, like switching booster types, why should I buy AIRSTEP for this?
    – Ability to assign min/max values also for knobs like booster, mod, fx.
    – Ability to playback sound through PRIMARY input with a speaker, turning katana in platform for third party amp sims, or bypass internal amp section completely for that sake.
    – Ability to disable internal cab-sim completely for line-out/PRIMARY-out.

    All in all it's a great amp, I will highly recomend it for those who dont have original or mk2

  • Tom Buttwig stinks. If youre just going to read us a bunch of ad copy, at least bust out the big guns, and get Bolinger up in this beezy.

  • I still have the first version katana. They’re ok, but I changed the grill cloth, the stock black and boss logo look horrid

  • This is not a 100 watt amp. It draws 77 watts from the wall so it cannot be.

    My oscilloscope shows that it outputs 64 watts at 8ohms and less than 50 watts at 16ohms.

    All speakers are measured by RMS and so are all reputable amplifiers. This amp uses a mostly imaginary “peak power” number.

  • Flexible, economical, good all-rounder for bedroom, amateur and semi-pro guitar players – but which professionals use it? Do any use it to gig with?

  • By far the best demo on YouTube IMHO! Great tone and player. And what a relief to hear punchy clean tones rather than …well you know! Thanks for this! ????????????????

    Reply
  • Probably just my ears, but I didn't hear any real distinction between the speaker settings other than modern sounded a bit brighter.

  • Left neck on right body just like jimi… Got boss mkII artist series 100 alot of people talk junk about them but their not putting asses in seats though

  • I had the first version of the Katana and a Roland Cube from almost 20 years ago sounded better. I kept the Katana long enough that when I tried to sell it, no one wanted to buy it. Mk II was out for as cheap as I bought mine. I had to give it away. Seriously, I gave it to a friend. They tried to play a gig with it and it wasn't loud enough for a church gig without a drummer. I was embarrassed that I gave the guy my Katana. Most of my pedals are Boss and I love them, but I really dislike this amp.

  • Nothing wrong with the demo, but seriously (and I mean no offense): Boss should have published this under their name – a publication should never publish verbatim marketing gibberish as editorial content, as there is none. This is an ad, start to finish.
