Boss KTN-100/212 Katana 100 2x12 Combo Overview

Boss Katana 100 KTN-100/212 100W 2x12 overview from GAK

Named aptly after the precision made Japanese sword, the Boss Katana Amp Series pairs unique tones and amp characters with fully customizable effects and storable tone settings. A versatile amp that allows you to take full control of your rock sound.

The Boss Katana 100 KTN-100/212 100W 2x12 Combo delivers its refined rock tones through two custom made 12-inch speakers powered by 100 watts of unrelenting power. Harnessed via an intuitive power control and scaling function, the Katana can acquire maximum tone and dynamic response even at lower volumes, making it ideal for the practise room as well as stage.

Play through five various amp styles that completely transform your sound, from a crystal clear 'Clean' to a 'Crunch' offering up a small amount of overdrive and breakup. Punch through the noise with higher gain via 'Lead', emulate the driving high-gain of the Japanese Boss Waza amp with 'Brown' and pair your electro-acoustic beautifully on 'Acoustic'. Notably, the Katana also offers a highly dynamic interaction between output and speaker, shapable thanks to a resonance function taken directly from BOSS's flagship 'Waza' amplifiers.

Take your chosen character and delve deep into customisation thanks to the Katana's onboard effects and a huge array of additional effects available via BOSS Tone Studio.Connect the amp to your computer via USB, browse through a large collection of effects and simply save as a preset. Up to three effects can be run simultaneously, experiment with various drives, reverbs, ring mods, delays, phasers and more to invent your own unique sound setting you apart from the rest. Created something truly unique? Save your creation via the onboard memory slots and quickly and easily recall them at your leisure. 

Get the most out of your Katana by visiting the BOSS Tone Central website, browse an inspiring range of free pro guitarist effects setups, as well as organise your own setups efficiently, in an easy to navigate account, allowing you to arm your amp with the sound you need quickly and easily, should a certain gig or practise session require it.

Too much tweaking to set the tones right. Not my type!

Great sounding straight out of the box. Easy to use (especially when connect to Boss Tone Studio app). The power selector was a great surprise and aids great tones at different volume intervals (a bit like an attenuator) All the FX and OD you need. No Amp models but the 5 amp types used with the deep EQ/FX app settings via the app will get most tones. Highly recommend (all variations of Katana seem to get the same praise)

Brilliant amp, only played through it a couple of times so far but it's got a great sound even at low volume and doesn't take up much room in my home studio either as it's a nice small size.

WOW what an amp. I’m a guitarist who has been playing semi professionally for many years and been very much into valve amps until I played the katana 100 212 and realised how far technology has come in the world of guitar amps. Don’t need the valve anymore as this does everything and more. It is simple and intuitive to use and it comes with quality boss effects and plenty of them. What is there not to like especially when it’s sold at a crazy price point. I mean how did Boss do this. Amazing.
