BOSS KTN-ART2 Katana Artist Mkii Guitar Combo Amplifier,100W 1 X 12"

Product Information

This is down to the analogue A/B Power Amp, which is the same type found on iconic valve amps. This means that the very heart of the amplifier reacts just like a valve amp, giving that essential breakup sound and dynamic response that they are synonymous for. Each Katana Amp can have its power output changed, meaning it is ready to be used in any playing environment you should ever need. It can be ran at gig volume, practice and bedroom volumes. You can even run it on headphones for silent practice too. The Boss Katana MKII takes all the amazing features from the MKI, and takes it to the next level. We have added more effects, 10x amp voicings, a specific power amp input for amp modellers/multi-fx units and we have added the ability to link two Katana Amps together for a stereo rig. The Katana Range has become one of the most favoured amp ranges on the market, due to its incredible tone, feel and response. The Katana-50MKII may well be the most compact combo, however, the KTN-100MKII, KTN-100/212MKII (offering a warmer, richer and more punch tone than the 1x12), KTN-ARTISTMKII are 100W combos that each have an effects loop (for using pedals directly into the poweramp stage - ie RC Loopers, 200 Series, 500 Series and delays/modulation effects), Stereo Expand for setting up a stereo rig, Record Out/Speaker output simultaneously, presence dial optimising your overall EQ in realtime to suit any musical environment, 8 patch locations and a larger 12" speaker cone giving a richer/fuller tone. Series/parallel effect loop, external speaker outputs, and power amp input for preamps, modelers, and multi-effects Boss Tone Studio editor software for customizing sounds with over 60 Boss effects, pre and post EQs, dedicated Pedal FX, and more.

By looking and studying original speakers with careful selection of components, the Waza speaker fully expresses the essence of this legendary speaker, while raising the capacity to 100 watts.
