About this deal

Used as a straightforward guitar amp, the Katana-Artist II sounds authentically ‘real’, with responsive overdrives and a wide dynamic range that’s helped by the 100-watt Class AB output stage and the matching 2x12 enclosure. To our ears, there’s more than a little Tweed influence in the Artist II’s Clean, Crunch and Lead presets, while the Brown voice is lifted from the Boss Waza head and adds extra harmonics for a soaring lead sound with a vocal-like quality that’s great fun to play with.

With its built-in BOSS effects, the Katana-Head lets you perform anywhere with just a guitar and amp. Connecting to BOSS Tone Studio via USB provides access to 65 fully customizable effects, and you can load your favorites into the amp’s various effects sections. Going beyond standard distortion, delay, and reverb, the selection includes effects types like pitch shifting, ring mod, slicer, and many more. Channel and global parametric EQs are available as well for powerful overall tone shaping. Version 3 Effects and Control Features Digital modelling has evolved to give guitarists practically any sound they can think of, although not every amp is equal when it comes to performance and some are a lot easier and more fun to work with than others. AWG copper core wire, 3 ft./1 m length. Also available in 5 ft./1.5 m (BSC-5) and 15 ft./4.5 m (BSC-15) lengths. View Product

Boss are most renowned for their guitar pedals, and the company has crammed a bunch of its high-quality effects into its Katana amplifiers. Taking it to the next level with the MkII series, you can now use five different effects simultaneously rather than just three -giving you the power of a massive pedalboard inside your amp! It only gets better. BOSS are committed to giving you the best possible experience, which is why they've created a free update to expand the Katana's capabilities. This update to the Boss Tone Studio app brings a host of new features:

The well-received and affordable Katana range gets a new top-of-the-line head and matching 2x12 cab. There’s plenty of tech onboard, but does it satisfy the classic tonehounds?

Mic’d cabinet emulation on the line, USB, and phones/recording outputs, with three Air Feel settings available in BOSS Tone Studio Collection and delivery costs are included for the first 2 years in the event of an item becoming faulty Controls: Master, Presence, Amp Type, Gain, Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble, Booster, Mod, FX, Delay, Reverb

For optimal performance, stay up to date with the current Katana Mk II system software and BOSS Tone StudioHowever, you do need to adjust settings between those scenarios and this is where the Katana falls flat a bit. You only get to save a few presets. And, when you are in a specific preset, you can't know where exactly your EQ pots are dialed in, so rotating one of them makes your settings jump to an extremely different location. Three Cab Resonance options (Vintage, Modern, and Deep), selectable from the panel or BOSS Tone Studio
