Pros: The Boss Katana-50 MkII is described by many as the most versatile amp in this price range, and with its feature set. Much like the different effect pedals in the amp, the different modulations allow players to get an extremely specific sound that fits whatever genre they might be playing or find a specific sound that fits whatever venue they might be playing in. This gives players the freedom to tweak and adjust their effects to find the perfect sound they are looking for with only a few turns of a dial.īoss Also added built-in amp modeling to the Katana-50 giving players the freedom to choose different vices from clean to lead, and it even includes a setting that is meant for acoustic-electric guitars.

Like I mentioned previously, the Katana-50 allows players to utilize over 60 different effects right from the amp itself via the amps software editor. This ability to change the output is great for players who need a jack-of-all-trades amplifier that is great for practicing at lower power output and is great in a band setting that can blend well higher power and volume outputs. While it might sound like nothing special, this power attenuator allows players to raise or lower the power output from half power to 25W or even lower the power to 0.5W if you were so inclined. “What does this mean for me as a player?” you might be asking yourself. At its core, the Katana-50 is a 50W amp with a built-in power attenuator. Review: The Boss Katana-50 MkII is an extremely versatile combo amplifier packed with all sorts of really neat tools for guitarists, including Boss’ guitar effect processing giving players over 60 different effect pedals.
