BOSS Katana series guitar effects and amplifiers

The BOSS Katana series is one of the most successful lines of guitar amplification and processing in modern music history.

The product line includes various amplifier heads, combos, and floor-based multi-effects processors that integrate seamlessly with modern recording software.

BOSS is a specialized division of the Roland Corporation, a legendary name in the electronic musical instrument industry. While the brand was originally founded in Japan, its manufacturing footprint has expanded globally over the decades to meet high market demand. Today, most Katana units are produced in specialized facilities in Southeast Asia, particularly Malaysia, while maintaining the rigorous quality control standards established at the brand's Japanese headquarters.

Ownership of the brand remains under the Roland Corporation, which is headquartered in Hamamatsu, Japan. Roland continues to be a publicly traded entity and is recognized globally for its innovation in synthesizers, digital pianos, and percussion. Through the BOSS brand, Roland remains a primary driver of guitar technology, ensuring that the Katana range receives frequent firmware updates and technological refinements.
