Modeling Combo with 100 Watt power and Boss Waza Craft speakers
The Boss Katana Artist is the flagship model of the popular Katana series. The Katana Artist has been tailored to the professional guitarist with five amp models and over 50 Boss effects. The combo delivers a variety of sounds between glassy cleans, juicy crunching overdrive and brute high gain board. 100 watts of power and a twelve-inch Boss Waza Craft loudspeaker ensure a powerful and assertive sound. A line-out with speaker simulation is available for direct recording, whereby the position of the virtual pickup microphone can be determined via the "Air Feel" switch. The USB port also allows recording directly from a DAW or managing pre-sets using the Boss Tone Studio app.
The Boss Katana offers five amp models and over 50 effects for versatile sounds.
The main features of the Boss Katana Artist include:
This amp really is everything needed, especially with the price reduction due to the Mk2 coming out. Compared to the 100w this amp has a far more professional tone with a bit more grit and bite when needed. I have used this amp for outside festivals, holiday parks, clubs, pubs, practice and even recording sessions and the amp never fails to deliver. In my band we cover Jazz, pop, rock, soul, country, Rock n Roll, 60's , Rock, blues etc and this amp covers everything using just the in built effects. I use the Boss GA-FC pedal live with no external effects. The pre amp is analogue and does not limit you to bad reproductions of other amps but instead it gives you the tools to quickly home in on the amp style and tone needed for the song. For anyone looking for a pro level amp that is versatile, easily loud enough for live performances with a great sounding and consistent line out option for running to a desk then this is the amp. Throw in the built built in effects that sound as good as the Boss pedals and this amp is the leader of non valve amps.
