Make no mistake my dear friends this is not just some cheap bedroom practice amp. In the 3rd year since its introduction many gigging/working musicians have taken this amp very seriously.
Everyone's should own one honestly. If you're thinking about several amps, get the katana. You're just gonna end up wanting one regardless. With all the quality effects built in, it's seriously a no-brainer.
The trick I read and tested for my katana 100 (I assume the 50 and 2x12 as well) is to turn the master volume either all the way or mostly all the way, and mess around with the volume and gain controls - this is supposed to give you the fullest sound
Not having to touch any of the settings of the 3-band eq on an amp, and still getting a great tone, in my opinion, is a sign of a good amp, you should not have to work very hard to get a great tone out of an amp.
Oh dear Andy. I think we all need to chip in and get you a silly 9'' jewel encrusted flick knife that all other TH-camrs use to unbox everything. Cracking video and amp.
I have the 100 w and the foot pedal. It’s very good, especially since I’m a beginner and it allows me to use and learn a whole range of affects and pedals without spending a lot of money. I would appreciate more videos and patches on this amp!
You're totally right! I never thought about it much. Here's a wicked article explaining wattage VS volume for anyone else who wants to read up! www.google.com/amp/s/blog.andertons.co.uk/learn/wattage-vs-volume/amp Appreciate the comment dude, always happy to be corrected when I'm wrong :)
Ok, a little confused....why with all these reviews the amps are miked up . What's the difference in sound between miked up and not miked up? Could be misleading to a novice buyer.
@@andycrowley The difference in loudness between a 50W amp and a 100W amp is only about 1dB, for an amp to sound twice as loud as a 50W amp, it needs to put-out four times as much power, so in this case it actually needs to put out 200W not 100W, it all has to do with the human ear's logarithmic response to loudness.
I rejoined my old band after 4 years off and needed a amp , I found the Mk2 2x12 bought it (with pedal) and have never looked back. Great for gigs the best thing I like is setting up for the gig ,plug it in and go . It kicks ass when turned up!
I just ordered this one, I've been playing on a Roland micro cube for 12years, and was always too lazy to buy a new amp or couldn't choose. I'm really excited for this upgrade 😁
I’ve been playing a micro cube since 2010. Liked the fender bass man the the Marshall and the Mesa boogie sounds. I’ve worn out the channel selector ! Got it on aux now. I like the bright high ends for country rock on the edge of breaking up. Tried a Cube 40 GX, but it had “Digital Artifacts “. I’m going for the Katana 50. I play at church every week and my 35+ 43 # amps got too heavy for just 4 songs! They just want you to plug in and play anyhow. Planning on jamming at other people’s houses more, and the 25# Katana might just be the ticket Do the tones of the Katana 50 resemble the micro cube? I’m hoping they are since they’re both made by Roland. ?
@@JohnDoe-jc3cl the Boss Katana is much better than the micro cube imo. I love the wide range of sound effects and there's much more fullness to the sound coming out. Sounds much more professional
I have the K100 and, the gafc foot pedal. Had it about 1 year, very awesome setup. I gig with a 4pc band absolutely no problem with sound and, power. I play mostly clean country and, some classic rock. I've had some issues with adding some drive to the clean sound, it's either too much or not enough and, I usually will leave the drive on and, try to regulate the volume on the guitar or a volume pedal. This usually works but, it's a very delicate thin line between too much or too little. Honestly I'm still in the learning process with this amp and, pedal and, I've been a musician for well over 50yrs. When I do hit the sweet spot it's awesome, this amp pedal setup is that good and, I'm an old tube man from way back in the 60s. I really enjoy all the suggestions from everybody and, I think my main issue is the balance between the volume and the gain. I'm going to try some if these suggestions and, see what happens. I've not setup any presets maybe I should. This amp is just loaded with possibilities I think the sky is the limit in what can be done if a person takes the time to experiment. I if I would have an amp like this in the 60s it would have been mind blowing!
The Katana 50/100 are absolutely, without doubt, for the money, the best amplifiers ever sold. I can't name you another amp with as many usable sounds and effect, that I have come across. and I have owned quite a few over the years, from cheap to expensive. Boss hit the mother load when they brought out this little stunner! My only gripe being the foot switch. The GF-AC foot switch is such a boon for the Kat 100. You can switch eight channels and drop individual effects in and out, on each one, Great stuff!!.....So why can't they produce a foot switch to do the same for the Kat 50??? It has to be, hand's down, the biggest seller of the entire range! I have bought an FS7 with a Y cable and a power supply, just to be able to switch the four channels and this has cost me half what I paid for the amp. I know I could have perhaps bought a cheaper option than the fs7, but I would have thought Boss could have produced a dedicated pedal for their biggest seller. Pull your finger out Boss, you would sell loads of them!
Exactly right. I encourage anyone to find me a better amp for the money. I'm not joking Boss could have charged $1000 for this and it would be justified. This thing does not just sound good its price range it sounds amazing for almost any price range.
Hey man, I have a Katana 100. I'm trying to run my line out to a Blackstar amp through the front input. I have laptop with Tone Studio and an MXR Studio Comp, a Boss Metalzone, a chorus and a Mimiq pedal in the loop of the Katana. It makes a sound when I plug the Blackstar in from the line out but nothing afterwards.
I have the 100 and love it. I'll be getting an SG Pro next week...... I tried one at Guitar Center, and just bought a used Vox AC Tone emulating pedal, can't wait to play with them.
I would love to see you do some more lessons with the Katana amp, and produce some patches of different sounds and musical genres. after struggling with a Mustang II modeling amp for a couple of years, I just love the Katana 50. It's a GREAT amp, especially for the price. It's so much better than any other solid state amp that I've heard, and I imagine it will only get better with time and tech improvements.
I own the 50 and the head, and I prefer the 2 channel setup of the 50. I live on the Crunch setting, with occasional Lead for a solo. The Lead channel starts to get a bit digital sounding on higher gain, and the Brown completely gives it away. Get a good boost or overdrive, and you cannot distinguish this amp from a Marshall JCM.
I have the 100W 2x12... Anyone that says "tubes will always be better" had better start letting go of the past. This amp has already been proven in a blind test against other musicians that it's close to impossible to differentiate between this amp and a bunch of tube amps. If you can get a better amp for this price point I'll be completely shocked. I will say it may have been a little overkill to get the 2x12 100W for bedroom practice. This thing could shatter my windows.
Enjoyed your video. Maybe you could connect an expression pedal (or 2 or 3) and explore some of the possibilities. I have the same amp and its pretty amazing.
Just so happens, I've got a brand-new boss Katana 100 Mk II 1 x 12 amp, plus the optional GA-FC foot controller and amp cover, that I recently ordered online from Boss Australia, wonderful sounding digital modelling amp, sounds way better than a Line 6 Spider Mk IV, which to my ears has a very digital sound to it that's hard to dial-out, I particularly like how the tremolo effect sounds by itself or with some reverb and the Katana 100 Mk II takes pedals well and plays nicely with them.
Great amp! Re: the pickup - I just dropped a Pearly Gates bucker in the bridge of my plustop pro.. Never has a guitar sounded better in my crap hands than it does now lol. Thinking the next mod will be to put the 59 in the neck - but if I roll the volume down to about 8 or so and the tone to about 5, to my ears you get all the warmth of a 59 with just a tiny extra little bite to it. Perfect for Zep or (as is self evident) ZZ Top classic blues rock type stuff. It's a bit too thin when I split the coils but otherwise it's amazing.
Anyone wanna exchange pointers on the katana for jamming loudly with a band? I’ve had some trouble dialing it in at loud volumes. I can nail it when recording. I almost exclusively use the clean channel at about 40-50 gain, max volume, and pretty much noon on the EQ with minor tweaks depending on the guitar/pickups. As soon I switch to any higher gain channels, I lose control and it all sounds insanely glassy and EQ reacts WAYYY differently. Anyone else have thoughts or experience with that?
LostMyMojo100 Both but mostly the strat which is all single coil. I actually checked out some websites for the best presets out there and I noticed some of them somehow change the sound significantly without actually changing any visible setting within tone studio! Most notably, the sneaky amp presets. I’m not sure how they’re doing it but I suspect it’s via a third party editor. Because I took a fine tooth comb through those presets and couldn’t find a single setting in BTS that actually changed for some of them, yet the sound changes. Global EQ, channel eq, no fx or anything were touched. Confusing but I’m quite happy with some of them! Really opened up a world of sound.
hi Andy if you do some more settings can you do a traditional blues setting if possible Eric Clapton Peter green love the sound playing of christone kingfish ingram thanks
This is what i needed. Ive bought a kantana100 and couldn't get on top of it but youve shown me the way Andy . I have an LP and it sounds awful with this amp so far . I cant get the clean sound yet but watching your vid .
Is there anyway you can do a couple setting recommendations on the katana for oasis songs, specifically that crunchy definitely maybe tone that noel gets in Supersonic and digsys dinner?
Hey Andy, where can I get myself a Red5 and which one are you using in the video as I can’t find the link in your description. Much appreciated, thank you! I hear a Yorkshire accent, I’m Leeds/Bradford!
I own the BK100 and it is a fantastic amp. I'm a huge blink-182 fan. Any patch suggestions to get that Enema of the State or Take Off Your Pants and Jacket album?
Thanks Andy I think this is the best right out the box how to use you Katana that I have watched. You jumped right in amd showed how to use it without getting into bosstones. Awesome man! Patches how about white stripes and jack white patches to start?
You did a review and never left 0.5 watts? Mine sounds great there too. Turn it up to 50 or higher, on any channel past clean, and it buzzes and screams feedback even with no guitar, just a cable. No cable and its quiet. I'm on my 3rd replacement for defects! and its still the same! useless past 1/2 watt!! So, its going back too
These amps are so nifty, allot of big guitarists in Japan use them. My mates are jealous, they've got to carry great big Marshall cabs with Heads and all. I turn up to practice with my K100 laughing. These things absolutely kill it, they sound awesome with physical pedals.
I'm more sold on this amp than Peavey Vyper 75 cuz, it has 4 storages to store your settings. Vyper 75 doesn't and they sell for the same price where I live.
Seems like a great amps! I still use tube amps on stage but I truely hope SS amp technology keeps improving...have you seen the price of tubes and tube amps lately?
Hi Andy I've bought a boss 2x12 and I'm getting a bad hiss from it what am i doing wrong / how can i get rid of the noise tried 3 guitars on it and still the same noise thanks hopefully you can help colin
Hey Andy! Nice video showing all the effects that his amp can produce. I am trying to get the RHCP effect. I see that your amp is set to channel 3 when you play Can't Stop. What effects does Channel 3 have?
Does this amp have the tubelike response when you try to make a pinch harmonic or does it just kill your sound? No one seems to cover this in the reviews so I'm guessing the Zakk Wylde type squeelies can't be made on the katana. This is a deal breaker for my practice amp shopping so I could really use someone's sincere review.
I also have the Boss Katana 50 and Epiphone Casino Coupe VS, but I am not able to set a good blues sound ... What settings do I have to have to get a great blues sound Do I have to have a Stratocaster for the blues sound ???
📍I'm losing my mind trying to Dial in ANY Time other then Clean.Also Trying to get my new ESP 256 to be Friends 🙄 Then, curiosity got me..Added my New Mojo OD pedal..get cracking sounds. Checked cables..all good. YES Need Settings.. please. No Computer .

Cracking amp, I bought one as a Christmas present to myself, absolutely love it, especially when you start adding pedals to it
I’ve had the Boss Katana 100 about a year and a half. I know how it sounds but I still watch your videos because they’re so good 🙌
put the channel volume to max and adjust the master volume to take advantage of the katana (according to boss)
i thought they said its the other way around
I have the 100 w and the foot pedal. It’s very good, especially since I’m a beginner and it allows me to use and learn a whole range of affects and pedals without spending a lot of money.
I would appreciate more videos and patches on this amp!
An amazing tool to practice and play live.... and it even has an acoustic channel
A 100w amplifier is not twice louder than its 50w counterpart!

Yes true... i have read an article on internet and it states that the amp has to have 10 times more watts to be twice as loud as it was before 🙂

I have a katana 50 and i love it
Me too!
Me too
same!
same here !
Me too, and you can gig with it even on 0.5 watt setting. Great amp.
At 10:50 I thought you were about to start playing how soon is now by the smiths!
I was trying to...haha
It is quiet enough for bedrooms too? I would think so since it has the 25W and 0.5W settings right?
I rejoined my old band after 4 years off and needed a amp , I found the Mk2 2x12 bought it (with pedal) and have never looked back.
Great for gigs the best thing I like is setting up for the gig ,plug it in and go .

blackstar id core series? i think they are closest one to katana as cheap good digital amp
@@sohibconner6926 I think it's the difference between like and love. I like the ID core, but I love the Katana!
I bought the Katana 50 I also love it what a great amp The effects you can get are great!
How can I "match" volume when using a pedal? It seems my overdrive is so much louder than my clean sound when switching between using pedal..Thanks!
Good amp, takes a bit of time to fo the settings for patches. Loud as heck.even better with the foot controller.
I bought the 50 when they first came out. Brilliant amp. Best$199.00 I've ever spent on gear.

I'm getting the 100w 2x12 version in a couple weeks, I can't wait!
Got one and it's a total beast. Enjoy !
gilmour or gary moore patch

Is there anyway you can do a couple setting recommendations on the katana for oasis songs, specifically that crunchy definitely maybe tone that noel gets in Supersonic and digsys dinner?
Iv chucked a 100 mk2 head on it , sounds awesome now
3:18 recognize the guitar!!
Great video mate, please do some patches. I have just picked up a Katana 50 so need some help setting it up and getting the sounds.
Hey Andy, where can I get myself a Red5 and which one are you using in the video as I can’t find the link in your description. Much appreciated, thank you! I hear a Yorkshire accent, I’m Leeds/Bradford!
I own the BK100 and it is a fantastic amp. I'm a huge blink-182 fan. Any patch suggestions to get that Enema of the State or Take Off Your Pants and Jacket album?
On the strat u could have played some Eric Clapton
Would really like to see more of this! Preferably some Metallica :)
Hello! Can I play Status Quo songs with that amp? Which are the settings to get the Status Quo tone?
Thanks Andy I think this is the best right out the box how to use you Katana that I have watched. You jumped right in amd showed how to use it without getting into bosstones. Awesome man! Patches how about white stripes and jack white patches to start?
Awesome
You did a review and never left 0.5 watts?
Mine sounds great there too.
Turn it up to 50 or higher, on any channel past clean, and it buzzes and screams feedback even with no guitar, just a cable. No cable and its quiet.
I'm on my 3rd replacement for defects! and its still the same! useless past 1/2 watt!!
So, its going back too
Brilliant.....please make this a series!
These amps are so nifty, allot of big guitarists in Japan use them.
My mates are jealous, they've got to carry great big Marshall cabs with Heads and all. I turn up to practice with my K100 laughing.
These things absolutely kill it, they sound awesome with physical pedals.
A wondering O'Neil I want to be like you, buddy. Hoping to improve my tone, coming from a line 6 spider 120.. lol
Hi, nice video. Just one question. Can I have a booster effect and a mod effect on at the same time, simultaneously. Thanks.
Great to hear you just rocking Andy 🙏
this was actually really informative, thanks!!
What is the Length x Width x Height in inches, and how much does it weigh?
What's the best settings on this amp to play shine on you crazy diamond by pink floyd
I'm more sold on this amp than Peavey Vyper 75 cuz, it has 4 storages to store your settings. Vyper 75 doesn't and they sell for the same price where I live.
The brown tone rocks the best. Cheers James.
How about a jazz tone and Santana tone?
Seems like a great amps! I still use tube amps on stage but I truely hope SS amp technology keeps improving...have you seen the price of tubes and tube amps lately?
I’ve got the 50. Love it
Great presentation,looks like you're enjoying yourself,thanks
Hey Andy, this is so cool! I have a question for you or anyone, can I hook up a Soldano Mini Amp to the Katana 100 MK II?
excellent video. thank you Andy
I bought a 50 watt. Ive had it for like a month and I love it.
I liked the boss katana 100! But i m confused with boss katana 100 vs blackstar idcore 100.....which best?
0:53 LIES!!!!!!!!!!!!! 100w is only 3db louder than a 50w, it has more headroom but not double volume
Waiting for these comments :)
HI Andy, your videos are always cool and awesome! Hey on the SG, is that your Gibson SG Faded from 2017?
Great video mate !
The EQ section is subtractive so 12pm is 50% down on each pot. Other than that great video Andy 🤟
Hi Andy I've bought a boss 2x12 and I'm getting a bad hiss from it what am i doing wrong / how can i get rid of the noise tried 3 guitars on it and still the same noise thanks hopefully you can help colin
Sorry for the many questions, can you make patches, also I haven't seen anyone show the Katana app.
What was that John Mayer song?
Good love is on the way
Do you need to pay extra for the foot pedal or does it come with it? thanks
There's a magic at 3:18😆
Does anyone know if this foot pedal works for the boss katana 50 seen as though they now have 4 channel options via the tone studio?
To my knowledge, the katana 50 only works with the 2 channel foot switch. But I'm happy to be proved wrong if anyone knows better?
That demo at 8:15 sounds familiar, like U2?
Hey Andy! Nice video showing all the effects that his amp can produce. I am trying to get the RHCP effect. I see that your amp is set to channel 3 when you play Can't Stop. What effects does Channel 3 have?
Jaskaran Virdi Check Dave’s katana setting on TH-cam he’s got it covered
Does this amp have the tubelike response when you try to make a pinch harmonic or does it just kill your sound? No one seems to cover this in the reviews so I'm guessing the Zakk Wylde type squeelies can't be made on the katana. This is a deal breaker for my practice amp shopping so I could really use someone's sincere review.
You can make it squeal like a pig.... Really....
I also have the Boss Katana 50 and Epiphone Casino Coupe VS, but I am not able to set a good blues sound ... What settings do I have to have to get a great blues sound
Do I have to have a Stratocaster for the blues sound ???
Impressed! Great video, keep up the good work.
Wht is your mic bro for recording? Its❤
does anyone know whats the first song he plays? it feels awfully familiar but i cant put a name to it
Its quite similar to Rock n roll damnation by ACDC, but it was no particular song, I was just jamming :)
I've got the head, the little speaker is amazing
capitan von chicken pants just picked one up yesterday , the 100watt head version , thing rips
Zach Baldwin I just got the head too but I feel like it’s super bright and almost can’t be dialed out. Sounds badass but a little harsh. Any eq tips?
when you played rage against the machines i subscribed! cheers i am also getting this amp!
Hi Andy, would be great if you could do some patches for us. Thx.
Thank you so much. Your so good.
What songs were you playing?
Is this any good for an acoustic guitar?
