BOSS Katana 100 Gen 3 Guitar Amplifier

The BOSS Katana 100 Gen 3 guitar amplifier boasts even greater sound, feel, and response, including a new expressive Pushed amp character. Equipped with 100 watts of Class AB power, the Katana-100 Gen 3 delivers big, stage-ready sound in an easy-to-carry 1x12 combo.

Additionally, the BOSS Tone Studio app has been updated, making your remote amp and effects editing workflow more intuitive than ever. Loaded with inspiring tone tools and diverse connectivity options, Katana Gen 3 can be your centerpiece for studio recording, live performance, and daily practice.

Refined Tube Logic Tones
Tube Logic puts the tone and feel of classic tube amp tones under your fingers. Refinements have been made to the six amp characters available in previous Katana models, including the iconic high-gain Brown type. The new Pushed character spotlights internal dynamic enhancements with the pleasing touch-responsive gain of a clean combo driven into harmonic saturation. All six amp characters include a selectable variation, giving you 12 distinctive tones to support every musical style. 

Sweet Spot Sound at All Volumes
The integrated Power Control in Katana Gen 3 lets you dial in a cranked-amp tone with no adverse effect on the sound. Just turn the panel knob to transparently harness the level for everything from live stage playing to bedroom jams.

Famous BOSS Effects
Katana Gen 3 features five simultaneous effect categories - Booster, Mod, FX, Delay, and Reverb that offer enhanced sound quality, simple parameter controls, and three variations each for access to 15 unique effects. 

Additionally, BOSS Tone Studio unlocks more possibilities, allowing you to customize the onboard effects from 60 different types and tweak deep options not available from the amp’s panel. And when the optional Bluetooth Audio MIDI Dual Adaptor is installed, you can wirelessly edit sounds on the gig using the BTS editor app on your smartphone.

Complete Stage Command
Katana-100 Gen 3 features powerful tools for modern guitarists. Eight Tone Setting memories let you store and recall complete amp/effect setups, while rear-panel jacks support remote control with footswitches and an expression pedal.

The GA-FC and GA-FC EX Foot Controllers extend your capabilities even further, providing complete stage control solutions for your Katana Gen 3. Switch Tone Settings, turn effects on/off, integrate multiple expression pedals, and more. The GA-FC EX model also includes an expansion option to double your footswitches or control two Katana amps at once.  

Expand Your Range
Katana-100 Gen 3 flows with all your creative journeys. Easily link two amps via the Stereo Expand* function, with master control from the main amp and stereo effects like chorus, delay, and reverb distributed across both amps for a wide, immersive sound. Or connect to the Power Amp In jack to bypass the Katana preamp and use the reactive Class AB power section to amplify a modeler or an external preamp.

Get Connected
Katana-100 Gen 3 includes connectivity to meet every need. Plug in headphones to practice quietly with stereo sound. Send a feed to a house PA via the Line Out jack. And record your favorite music software on computers and mobile devices over USB-C. All audio outputs feature IR-based cabinet sound for great direct tone, with three Air Feel types and two customizable settings in BOSS Tone Studio.
