Well since you're askin', the best one of those that I've ever seen and held was made by Dan Keffeler. Made like a proper, real katana, but had a titanium guard and hardware, and a blood-chilling blade made from very high-end steel. It was a custom-made blade though, not a mass-production piece.
Luckily, once you have your patches set up, you don’t have to mess with either of those too much. The cabinet seems pretty well built to me. Hopefully the software and circuitry are solid. But, something’s bound to go glitchy if it gets jostled around on the road for years. The first Katana’s are only what, 5-6 years old now?
Yes, I have a Katana 50 MKII, and it is so good that it has been my ONLY amp since early 2022. In addition to what Bill has said, the tone presets are very useful, as is the auxiliary input jack, which turns the amp into a speaker and allows you, among other things, to play along with backing tracks through the amp.
I don't think I can recommend a katana just as tough as a CS sword because theirs are the toughest you'll find for that price. But if you were to handle a historical katana, the word tough would not come to mind. They are stiff, hard edged, but they are also fine, sometimes delicate, cutting machines.
I can carry the Katana 100 combo and my Mustang 111 v2 and cover all I want with either one for both steel and guitar. I'm trying my best to get the Tonemaster Twin in a happy place for both but it requires some extra outboard gear I want to eliminate. I went through the same feelings as you on the Katana and the Mustang until I found the sweet ...
With the Katana, the software is highly variable and you have to be willing to go a little deeper than setting the preamp controls at 12 o’clock and then go off to effects. I think people get frustrated because their preconceived notions get challenged - “hey, this is supposed to sound like a Marshall and it sounds more like a herd of frogs!”
I've always adored and admired katanas, and I finally have the luxury to own one. I have done my research on knife laws in California, but I just want to make sure one last time before purchasing a katana. Knowing me, I could have missed some major points regarding the laws. No, I don't plan on carrying it around in public or even in private.
I have tried for days - literally - to connect my Boss Katana Mk2 to the Boss Tone Studio, but everytime I try to connect through computers, it says "Wrong Device." I have religiously followed instructions step by step, have downloaded the right driver, have downloaded the Tone Studio, have tried the hint of installing Adobe Air, have tried ...
I bought a Katana 100 a few months ago and love it. I've never been an amp guy in my 50 plus years of playing acoustic bluegrass, old country and folk on guitar, banjo and dobro but took up PSG just recently (Justice Pro-Lite 3x5). Having a ball with the BOSS KATANA, got some tips on amp settings from Mike Sally (forum member).
Dennis, I have the Katana 100 watt single 12 amp. With a usb cable and the Katana app I was able to dial in a better tone using more parametric eq on the mids and bass. The speaker is capable of doing good tone but you need the app or your laptop and Boss software. Then save your settings and make music. You can also swap effects and save as well.
