Of course, the Katana keeps a lot of the other features that make is so easy to recommend. And it's still pulling from the same library of over 60 excellent Boss effects (after all, Boss is better known for its effects pedals than its amps).

The standard Katana 50 is the perfect all-round practice amp. There's something here for you, regardless of playing ability or other equipment you own. Gen-1 Katana owners can also import their custom patches and use them with Katana MkII amps!Īlthough every Katana is capable of a similarly powerful array of sounds, each model lends itself to different needs across a number of prices.
