  • Fantastic Amp
Excellent beginner amp, especially for the price. It’s got amazing features and is more than loud enough for anyone really. It’s super functional with lots of options, but the free app you can get on your computer really takes this thing to the next level. Any tone sounds amazing on this thing from clean to crunchy distortion, this amp can do it all, and at a great price. ... show more

  • Experience Heavenly Sound with the BOSS Katana-50 Gen 3 Guitar Amplifier
The BOSS Katana-50 Gen 3 Guitar Amplifier delivers an outstanding audio experience that rivals even the best tube amps. From the moment you plug in, the amp produces a rich, full-bodied sound that is nothing short of heavenly. One of the standout features is the ability to save your customized settings as presets, allowing you to switch between your favorite tones with ease. With its vast array of effect options and functionalities, it takes some time to fully explore all that this phenomenal piece of equipment has to offer. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned musician, the Katana-50 will not only meet your needs but inspire your creativity as well! ... show more

  • Lots of options, good value, decent sound
For the money, you get a lot of value. I only use this as a practice amp, however, it can get reasonably loud. The built in effects etc will save a beginner from having to resort to pedals. It can slightly model some amps. The cabinet is open back and the walls are not as thick as an expensive amp, but it is still sturdy. Nice handle, appearance and seems pretty durable if it gets banged around. Lots of options on the rear. No bluetooth, but you can add later, unlike the Positive Grid. But I like them both for different reasons. A great practice or starter amp. ... show more

  • Unreasonably good
This little guy has no business being so good for what it is. $300 is nothing. It's loud enough for the melee jams I do with friends. It's light enough to carry around without stressing. The amp sims are excellent. The effects are the weakest part, but if you install the app you can override the default with some things that are much better. Installing the app is a pain, though. ... show more

  • Great amp for the $$$.
These Katana amps, and I own th 50 Mark 2, and the 100 mark 2, are great multipurpose tools, for a working musician. They are not too heavy, and sound close enough to the amps that are modeled i.e. fender, marshall, etc. that only tone snobs can tell the difference. I bought the 50 watt mark 3. It sounds great too...with one caveat! The direct out feature on these is gone. The usb c works to connect to a pc...but that's it. very disappointed. I discarded the boxes before i found that out, and now I'm stuck with it. ... show more

  • Great Price, Lots of Effects
I've been researching amps for a couple months before buying one, and read a lot about BOSS Katana amps being a good, affordable beginner amp that is also useful as you advance. After buying the BOSS Katana 50W Gen 3, I am very happy with the amp. I just recently bought my first electric guitar and amp and this amp lived up to all my expectations. It has a huge range of tone, and I've been able to dial in the right kind of sound that I want. I only need something for playing at home, so it is plenty loud. I also opened the BOSS Tone Studio, which was very nice. It was helpful to watch a tutorial to figure out how to download it, and to intially figure out some of the dials. I was very satisfied with all the sounds that were on it already, so I didn't really change much except for adding a fuzz effect on the booster knob. Before buying this amp I had tried two other amps, one was a tube and the other was a modelling amp, both older Marshalls, and this BOSS Katana was definetly a better choice because of the range of effects and volume for a good price. Even though it's not a tube amp, I think it sounds very nice and works great. The only thing I wish had been added to the Gen 3 was bluetooth without the extra accessory. Thats a pretty standard thing now so it's a little odd for it not to be added, but otherwise I am very happy. I feel that I will be able to learn and grow on guitar with this amp for years and not want to replace it. ... show more
