Flexible, economical, good all-rounder for bedroom, amateur and semi-pro guitar players - but which professionals use it? Do any use it to gig with?
By far the best demo on UA-cam IMHO! Great tone and player. And what a relief to hear punchy clean tones rather than …well you know! Thanks for this! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
5:24 This is the GA-FC EX and GA-FC foot controllers side by side.
And they only cost 2/3rds the MSRP of the amp itself. Very gnarly! And very practical for us blue-collar working stiff musicians. Who work at the local steel foundry when we aren't jamming out Def Leppard covers down at the local dive bar. Am I right, fellow rockers?
Y'all keep on shredding and don't forget to smash that subscribe button harder than a semi-conscious groupie. Very gnarly! Very Rock n Roll!

Hopefully they put a better speaker in this version
Left neck on right body just like jimi... Got boss mkII artist series 100 alot of people talk junk about them but their not putting asses in seats though
This is not a 100 watt amp. It draws 77 watts from the wall so it cannot be.
My oscilloscope shows that it outputs 64 watts at 8ohms and less than 50 watts at 16ohms.
All speakers are measured by RMS and so are all reputable amplifiers. This amp uses a mostly imaginary “peak power” number.
Oh dear me, what shall we do,?
What a scandal, what a travesty, I feel so betrayed.
@@mrbas5150 OMG! 🤪🤪 I will not change my opinion about guitar players and enthusiasts being a truly opinionated bunch! Sometimes actually bordering on being jerks or worse. Truth be told, unless it's a point to point wired boutique amp utilizing the utmost scrutiny in manufacting, there will be descrepencies in the actual wattage. If you dropped into your local music store and measured across several identical amps, you would not get the same results. My first amp was a Peavey Pacer. God rest its soul! :-( I kept blowing speakers and could not understand why. Then, an amp tech measured the actual wattage and it was 60 watts. Well no wonder. DURRRRRR. The moral of the story is. Unless you pay a lot of money for boutique amp, be prepared to experience inconsitencies in manufacturing. Maybe you should send a nice email to Boss and correct them? Who knows, it might just work and they would go back and spend thousands of dollars correcting the owners manual. It's worth a shot. :-) Cheers
Apparently Eddie Van Halen “created” and amp sound…the “brown” sound that is industry recognized…really amazing if ya think about it!!!
Lol
Hardly... it was just 'created' by running the amp on a variac to drop the voltages and for sure vanhalen was NOT the first to do that.
I’m waiting for gen 4 with inbuilt Bluetooth.
Probably just my ears, but I didn't hear any real distinction between the speaker settings other than modern sounded a bit brighter.
I have the MK2 and there is a bit amount of distinction between those 3. Personally I like the vintage the most.
The contour settings all sounded identical to me, also.
@@TownshendFan68 Yea, they do sound alike. One is just more louder than the other - slightly
I still have the first version katana. They’re ok, but I changed the grill cloth, the stock black and boss logo look horrid
WE WANT BOLINGER!
I had the first version of the Katana and a Roland Cube from almost 20 years ago sounded better. I kept the Katana long enough that when I tried to sell it, no one wanted to buy it. Mk II was out for as cheap as I bought mine. I had to give it away. Seriously, I gave it to a friend. They tried to play a gig with it and it wasn't loud enough for a church gig without a drummer. I was embarrassed that I gave the guy my Katana. Most of my pedals are Boss and I love them, but I really dislike this amp.
A lot of obviously ad videos on YT. Their sales of Gen 3 must be not that good as expected... No wonder. It's just not worth an upgrade. So mostly people who don't have katana yet are buying. No rapid spike in sales therefore.
As a mk2 owner I anticipated stuff like:
- Ability to set different tones settings for different booster/compressor types (green, red, orange)
- More GA/FC functions, like switching booster types, why should I buy AIRSTEP for this?
- Ability to assign min/max values also for knobs like booster, mod, fx.
- Ability to playback sound through PRIMARY input with a speaker, turning katana in platform for third party amp sims, or bypass internal amp section completely for that sake.
- Ability to disable internal cab-sim completely for line-out/PRIMARY-out.
All in all it's a great amp, I will highly recomend it for those who dont have original or mk2
It also appearently sounds more crisp, but yeah it's not revolutionary with its feature set.
Tom Butwin is my Tom ButtTwin.

Nothing wrong with the demo, but seriously (and I mean no offense): Boss should have published this under their name - a publication should never publish verbatim marketing gibberish as editorial content, as there is none. This is an ad, start to finish.
PG is a magazine.. In other words, it's an advertisement platform. Nothing wrong with that. But yeah, one hopes for some editorial voice.
Make sure to subscribe & smash that notification button my fellow shredders. Keep on rockin' and don't forget to support the BOSS corporation.
Yeah dooood. Gnarly.
ack sounds terrible. Like a... pedal.
Are you r*tarded?
Solid Crap State Junk . Line 6 did this years ago . Shrill cranked !
I had a Katana Mk II head with the 2x12 cab and it gave my Twin Reverb a run for its money. Boss's stuff is quite good and the class AB power section really makes a huge difference. I didn't like the stock Katana speakers, but went with an Eminence Texas Heat and a Swamp Thang in the same cab and it was a killer amp setup.
Proof, don't take my word for it.

@@NORMIES_GET_OUT really dont give a shit
@@rareform6747Oh, I get it. You're retarded. My bad.
@@rareform6747 Then why are you watching videos about the Boss Katana? lol
Tom Buttwig stinks. If youre just going to read us a bunch of ad copy, at least bust out the big guns, and get Bolinger up in this beezy.
shat yer hole
Where´s the dancing girls in the background ?
By the way, you are playing your guitar upside-down. Jimi Hendrix never played a left-handed guitar.
That guitar is cool though! As you pointed out Hendrix played a right handed guitar flipped but strings were stil low strings on the thumb side. The guitar in the vid recreates the same vibe in a right handed guitar, where the bridge pickup has the pole piece on the low string closer to the bridge and the pole piece on the treble strings being further up the string, like Hendrix's flipped guitar! Also the string tension is going to be a bit different with the low string being longer from bridge to tuning peg as well as the high string being shorter from bridge to tuning peg. Pretty cool I think as that is going to get you even closer to Hendrix's setup for those wantig that detail!
