A Katana for Bass is Finally Unsheathed
Bass players rejoice: the incredible sound and flexibility of the BOSS Katana series has entered the low-end realm with the Katana-210 Bass Combo Amp! This 300W peak (160W continuous RMS), 2 x 10-inch combo serves as an all-in-one bass amp for both stage and studio use, with a trio of amp types alongside powerful tone-shaping tools to nail any sound imaginable. With the Katana-210 Bass combo's built-in Comp and Drive controls, you can leave the pedals at home, with FX1/FX2 controls unlocking an even wider range of BOSS-inspired effects. And while this amp packs more than enough power to handle small- to mid-sized venues, onboard attenuation in the form of a Power Control takes you down to 1-watt operation for quieter playing without tonal compromises, as well as a cab-sim-equipped USB and Phones/Rec Out for silent practice sessions. Pair this impressive combo with the BOSS Tone Studio editor, and your sonic options become near limitless — anchor your bass setup with the ultra-versatile BOSS Katana-210 Bass Combo Amp!

Three incredible bass amps in one
Much like the Katana line's other offerings, the BOSS Katana-210 Bass places a strong emphasis on versatility, arming you with three unique amp voicings alongside a wealth of tone-shaping tools and effects. Swapping between voicings is a cinch, with a single knob going from the full-bodied warmth of Vintage to the punch and clarity of Modern and even a Flat option allowing your instrument's organic tone to shine through. Once you find that ideal amp type, a powerful Shape function toggles between three distinct tone characters — mid-scoop, bright, and extended range — with a Pad button next door for some attenuation if need be. Need some additional sonic tweaking? A 4-band EQ with selectable low- and high-mid frequency controls is fully prepared to fine-tune your tone with surgical precision.
All the FX you need built right in
Apart from its studio- and stage-worthy tone, the Katana-210 Bass boasts a quartet of independent effect sections for adding some additional depth and character to your sound. Its Input EFX section sports Comp and Drive buttons with a single knob to dial in the perfect amount of compression and saturation. Sweetwater bassists appreciate the convenience of having these critical tools built right in, made even better with an expansive Effects section that accesses a wide range of additional stomp-style effects for crafting your signature sound.
Cab-emulated output for silent recording and performance
While the Katana-210 Bass offers a Power Control for getting cranked-amp tone at a low volume level, you can achieve truly silent operation onstage or in the studio. Cab emulation is available via the USB and headphone/recording output. However you choose to monitor your Katana-210 Bass, it'll feel like you're standing in front of an amp.
