BOSS Katana-100/212 Gen 3 100-Watt 2x12-inch Guitar Combo Amplifier
Step up to the podium of modern guitar amplification with the definitive evolution of a stage legend. The BOSS Katana-100/212 Gen 3 (Model: KTN-212-3) takes the world’s most celebrated modeling formula and supercharges it with next-generation Tube Logic architecture. Pushing 100 watts of stage-ready Class AB power through two custom-voiced 12-inch speakers, this third-generation tone monster delivers unmatched organic response, deep preset customization, and venue-filling stereo width designed to dominate everything from bedroom practice to massive festival stages.
Key Features
- Evolved Tube Logic Architecture: Upgraded internal DSP captures the dynamic sag, compression, and rich harmonic response of vintage tube amplifiers with jaw-dropping accuracy.
- Six Evolved Amp Characters: Dial in a staggering array of tones across six specialized profiles—Acoustic, Clean, Pushed (simulating a classic non-master volume amp worked to the max), Crunch, Lead, and the legendary high-gain Brown—plus a selectable voice variation for each.
- Five Simultaneous FX Sections: Build massive tone stacks with independent, concurrent controls for Booster, Mod, FX, Delay, and Reverb, drawing from an expansive onboard library of over 60 historic BOSS effects.
- Four-Stage Power Control: Achieve that highly sought-after, cranked-amp saturation at a whisper with variable wattage outputs, letting you toggle effortlessly between Max (100W), Half (50W), 0.5W, and Standby modes.
- Pro-Tier Hardware Routing: Features a dedicated FX Loop (Send/Return) for cleanly integrating your external physical pedalboard, a Power Amp In jack for multi-effects modelers, and a physical Stereo Expand toggle to link a second Katana amp.
- Advanced Air Feel & Cab Emulation: Send mix-ready cabinet emulations straight to front-of-house or your DAW via Line Out, Stereo Phones, or USB-C, complete with three selectable Cabinet Resonance filters (Vintage, Modern, Deep).
- Wireless App & Expansion Options: Fine-tune deep parameters using the revamped BOSS Tone Studio companion app via desktop, or unlock complete wireless audio streaming and mobile editing with the optional Bluetooth® Audio MIDI Dual Adaptor (BT-DUAL).
