BOSS DEBUTS KATANA BASS AMPS

NEW 1X10 AND 2X10 COMBOS DELIVER BOSS TONE AND RELIABILIT­Y TO LOVERS OF LOW END

-

BOSS has expanded its awardwinni­ng Katana range with two new bass amps, the Katana Bass-110 and 210. Both offer three pre-amp types, 4-band EQ, and comprehens­ive onboard effects. The 110 offers 60 watts of class AB power through one ten inch driver and a tweeter, while the 210 delivers a beefed-up 160 class AB watts through its two ten inch drivers and tweeter.

Guitarists will need little introducti­on to the all-conquering Katana series. The Katana guitar amps are famous for their versatilit­y, great tones, and astonishin­g value. For guitarists who moonlight as bassists, the Katana Bass range will feel immediatel­y comfortabl­e, with the same intuitive operation and bulletproo­f constructi­on as the guitar amps. Both amps offer mix-ready mic’ed cabinet tones via USB, headphones, and line out, so recording and gigging are stress-free.

Like the guitar amps, the Katana Bass’s variable power control offers optimum tone at any volume, and the effects section is as powerful as you’d expect from BOSS. The dedicated comp/limiter and drive sections build the core sound, while FX1 and FX2 offer a total of 60 BOSS effects from essentials like chorus, delay, and reverb to bass synth and octave. Six Tone Setting memory slots let you store your favourite sounds.

The included BOSS Tone Studio editor allows patch editing on Mac or PC. For jamming, there’s an aux in. The optional BOSS BT Dual Adapter provides Bluetooth compatibil­ity, which allows patch tweaking from Android or IOS mobile devices. Whatever the situation, the Katana Bass has the tone and features to deliver.

THE KATANA BASS’S EFFECT SECTION IS AS POWERFUL AS YOU’D EXPECT FROM THE LIKES OF BOSS
