BOSS Katana Head Gen 3 Guitar Amplifier | Compact 100-Watt Amp Head | Evolved Tube Logic Sound | 12 Amp Characters | Onboard BOSS Effects | Advanced Connectivity | Built-in 5-Inch Practice Speaker

I have 50 MkI and 50 MkII and love them both for home play. Got the Gen 3 head and the new re-voicings, the extra amp type (Pushed), and volume Bloom, the EQ Contour, the Solo switch, three cab resonances… this thing is amazing. I use it for home practice through the built-in 5” reference speaker. It’s loud for sure. I’ll get a 212 cab someday but it isn’t necessary. Love love love it!

A lot of old-time players will swear you need a tube amp, but this latest Katana Head (Gen 3), beats a tube amp in sonic quality and versatility, hands-down. It has a 5-inch built-in speaker that loud enough to gig with in a small club, and has all the bells and whistles on the front panel to get ANY sound you want. I hooked it up to a 1x12 cab, and 4x12 cab and it's loud enough to rock a stadium. Note with the built-in, 5-inch speaker you only get 30W, but again that's loud enough for a small clubs. You can also hook it up via USB-C to your computer where it serves as both a speaker AND an audio interface for a digital analog workstation (DAW) or even just making loops on Audacity. This is the only amp you need. Seriously. Super-Highly Recommended. I'd give it 10 stars if I could

All the amp any guitarist will ever need, from rank beginner to studio musician. This amp has all the tonal qualities of a hand built tube amp with out the high cost and headaches that come with tubes. Gen 3 is different but not better than Gen 2 mk2. The Push is inside the the MK2, it just doesn't have its own dial setting. The Bloom is nice, but it oddly only seems necessary with the Gen 3, for the Gen 2 mk2 seems a bit beefier in the stock settings. The built in speaker has a nice Celestion vibe but it's very bass heavy. I dial the bass almost to zero and 9 o'clock and it sounds great. With 12 inch speakers, the mid positions of the EQ is a good starting point. I do not have the Waza speaker, but my favorite Celestion that pairs well with this amp is the V Type. That's just me. Bottom line, a dedicated guitarist could get any sound in any genre that will sell millions of downloads (used to be CDs) and tour the world making millions with just this amp. Nuff said.

First off, I stripped and refinished mine immediately but didn't change anything electrically. The Katana's are very good amps for refinishing if you're looking to get into that. Its an unbelievable amp for the price. The pushed setting is THE setting, its well worth upgrading to Gen 3 for that alone. Paired with my Marshall 412, it sure moves air. Wow. My band was blown away at how it cut through, and its just so light and versatile. The tone studio is a big thing to get into, and you could spend a lifetime tinkering in there. As someone who loves to tinker, I think it is amazing. Just a wonderful amp that I only wish I bought sooner.
