#Who makes boss katana speakers series

The Acoustic setting is not an acoustic emulation, but rather a setting to make the best of electroacoustic guitars. In many ways the formula is quite familiar - you choose one of five amp models (Clean, Crunch, Lead, Brown and Acoustic), tweak the tone using a familiar range of drive, volume and bass/middle/treble tone controls, and then add the built-in effects.

As we were going to press, the Katana Mini version was announced, and this puts some of the same technology in a smaller, more portable, battery-powered unit. The Katanas are affordable modelling amplifiers built into MDF (rather than the more expensive plywood) cabinets - but they’ve already proven so popular that we’ve only just been able to get our hands on one to review.Īt the time of writing, the range comprises three combo amplifiers and one amp head: the 50W KTN50 and 100W KTN100 combos each incorporate a single custom 12-inch speaker, while the Katana 100/212 delivers 100W of power into two 12-inch speakers and the 100W Katana-Head has no cabinet but does include a small built-in monitor speaker for practise, and can be hooked up to any speaker cabinet of the appropriate impedance.

Towards the end of last year, Boss announced the Katana series of guitar amplifiers, which we’re told owe much to their ‘Waza’ amplifier development programme.
