Boss Katana KTN-100 100W 1x12 Guitar Combo Amplifier - Black
Katana—the traditional sword carried by the historic samurai of Japan—is
a symbol of honor, precision, and artistry in Japanese culture.
Adopting the majestic sword’s name with pride, the Katana series
presents guitar amplifiers with smooth, cutting tones honed by
generations of dedication and expertise. Born of the development process
behind the acclaimed Waza amplifier, these innovative amps embody
BOSS’s determined pursuit of the ultimate rock sound. Featuring
proprietary circuit designs and meticulous tuning, the Katana Series
combines traditional craftsmanship and breakthrough functions to produce
true next-generation rock amplifiers.
With 100 watts of power
and a custom 12 in. speaker, the Katana KTN-100 delivers a commanding
range of gig-worthy tones that gracefully slice through any band
scenario. The amp also excels for home playing, with a uniquely
efficient design and innovative Power Control that provides inspiring
sound and response at low volumes. In addition, the Katana KTN-100
includes integrated access to 55 BOSS effects, which are customizable
using the free BOSS Tone Studio editor software. Up to 15 different
effects can be configured in the amp at one time, enabling you to bring
fully prepared tones to the stage in one amp.
A Refined Amp with Inspiring Tone
Designed
for guitarists who are serious about their sound, the Katana KTN-100
offers exceptional tone and touch response for stage playing, recording,
and simply practicing at home. The custom 12-in. speaker is driven by a
special method developed for the flagship Waza amp that optimizes the
speaker and cabinet character. This gives you authoritative punch and
cutting presence previously attainable only with high-end amp designs.
In combination with the five selectable amp characters, the Katana
KTN-100 produces class-defying power and expressiveness to meet any
playing situation.
Five Original Amp Characters, Honed for Rock Playing
Sharpened
to perfection by the BOSS engineering team, the Katana KTN-100’s five
amp characters offer everything from organic vintage tones to modern
high-gain sounds. Clean is natural and transparent, while Crunch offers
satisfying grit and response. Lead has a wide gain range to suit many
styles, from fat, stinging blues solos to fluid legato shredding. With
DNA inherited from the Waza amp, Brown delivers refined high-gain tone
sought after by the world’s greatest rock players. The Acoustic
character further enhances the Katana’s versatility, providing optimized
tone that makes acoustic-electric guitars sound stunningly natural.
Leave Your Pedal Board at Home
With
its built-in BOSS effects and recallable Tone Settings, the Katana
KTN-100 lets you perform anywhere with just a guitar and amp. Connecting
to BOSS Tone Studio via USB provides access to 55 effects that are
fully customizable for your needs. Going beyond standard distortion,
delay, and reverb, the selection also includes powerful tone-shapers
like pitch shifting, ring mod, slicer, and more. You can load 15
different effects in the amp at one time and use up to three
simultaneously. Four Tone Settings let you store custom amp and effects
setups for instant recall, and you can always jump to the current panel
settings at the touch of a button. It's also possible to connect
optional footswitches and expression pedals for hands-free control on
the gig.
Grab-and-Go Operation
While the
Katana KTN-100 includes many advanced features, it’s amazingly simple to
operate. Dedicated knobs for multiple gain stages, three-band EQ, and
presence allow you to quickly dial in your tone by ear, just as you
would with a standard tube amp. Essential effects parameters are
adjusted with a simple knob twist, and memories can be stored with a
brief button hold. The Power Control is great for throttling back the
volume for small stages and home playing, and also includes a Standby
setting that mutes the sound for switching guitars or taking breaks. And
by flipping out the integrated tilt stand, you can easily angle the amp
back for better sound projection.
BOSS Tone Central
At
the BOSS Tone Central website, you’ll find numerous free amp and
effects setups for the Katana Series. Created by pro guitarists, these
setups provide ready-to-play sounds for various music styles, and also
make great starting points for building your own sounds. They load into
the memories in a Katana amp via the BOSS Tone Studio editor software,
which is also available at the site. In addition to Katana effects
selection and customization, BOSS Tone Studio gives you a convenient way
to organize all your Katana setups for different gigs, recordings, and
practice sessions.
