Boss it
SekiMagoroku5 06.09.2020
As guitar player, a small practice amp is a must when a time and space was limited. Check a bunch of review on this guy, but yeah, sometimes reviewer like to exaggerating thing, so im actually 70% convince. I had to try it since its sounds good, but will i like it?. Yes, i super like it.

Pros-
-As one of reviewer says, it really is worlds biggest smaller amp.
-Speaker sounds fantastic. It really does
-Simple feature but all you needed (im a demanded guy actually, Tone knob only doesnt satisfy me, minimum must have 3-band EQ.
-That JC CLEAN, that Boss pedal CRUNCH, that saturated BROWN channel. Happy happy me.
-Its loud enough, and speaker sim does sounds great.
-Take pedals really well, even mfx unit.
-Feather weight, easy to carry around.
-The most important for me, yeah, it does handle 7-strings like a boss.

Cons-
-Plastic all around (well built though)

Basically, if you need a great practice amp. This amp is a great choice. Especially if you're seven stringers like me..For the price, its unbeatable. I've already try bunch of small practice amps mind you..

Amazing Practice Amp
Miguel-Rock 08.08.2018
I have heard a lot about Katana's, so I gave this guy a try when I was looking for a practice amp for a small apartment. I was a great surprise!! I could not be more happy. It has a really nice clear sound, and great volume. But what surprised me it was the overdriven sounds. For low volumes, it truly delivers a nice round warm overdriven sound, that makes you enjoy practicing. Its really simple to use, and even have some on-board effects for even more fun while playing.

Pros:
-Quality of construction: Well manufacturer, clear connections, and very robust, yet lightweight.
-The size: Very portable, fits on a drawer, an can run on batteries.
-The sound: Amazing sounds!!. I had other practice amps, and even when the clean sound are good, the overdrives are usually, well, not enjoyable . However, this one delivers a great and playable overdriven sound, at lower volumes. I have valve amps, so I am very "picky" for the overdrive sounds, and this ones delivers . Obviously in the context of a practice amp.

Cons:
- I enjoy playing so much, that I wish it would have extra effects like the bigger brothers =)

To get some context of my overdriven preferences, I like rock and heavy rock, but I am not into a really heavy overdriven sound . I had played mostly Marshall JCM. I have not use the amp with external pedals, live overdrives or other distortion, so I could not made a comment on that.

Very Basic
Leo S A 19.09.2022
The katana mini is for someone who is not looking for tone, the speaker sounds horrible, this amp has a hum that can´t be removed, tested batteries and the power supply and couldn´t get rid of it, I would recommend it for a beginner or some one that travels and needs a mini amp only.

For this price 100% must have for every guitar geek
Dudi1986 04.12.2017
If you were sad before that you can't take your electric guitar with you to camping and play Master of Puppets to other campers this is solution for you :)

For me it is a toy, which plays much better than I would except from the toy of that size. I am using it mainly in my house when I want to play not in the room where my standard amp is standing (i.e. in my son's room when I am putting him to sleep, this amp is perfect for this purpose).

I gave 4 stars for quality because this amp is made 100% out of plastic; solid, hard but still plastic. I also give 4 stars for sound (if you take into account the size of the amp and how it plays than it should be 6 stars).

5 stars for features because in this size you have 3 channels and build in reverb

Perfect as a second small amp to play with during night, rosting turkey in the oven, putting your kid to sleep or simply for practicing your scales. Also if you are just starting your trip with a guitar and you are not sure if this is for you. I recommend

J'en attendais pas moins
SoA Slayer 25.09.2021
Je voulais tester un ampli portable après avoir vu de nombreuses vidéos et démos. Le clean est pas mauvais du tout mais la disto ne casse pas des briques. Le delay est sympa aussi sans être géniale, mais après on est sur un petit ampli pas cher pour s'entrainer où on veut.

Le plus gros problème: l'alimentation est vendue SÉPARÉMENT et 30 balles pour une prise, c'est ridicule. Les piles sont quand même fournies.

En résumé:
Clean et delay bons
Does it chug? Meh
Alim non fournie
Léger
Le Bluetooth aurait un super ajout

Cool sound in a tiny box
SwampAsh 11.12.2020
All in all: don't assume this is a joke. It is a surprisingly great sound for a cheap and small amp, and I use it for teaching (I let my students use my Kemper and I use this!). It has basically everything you need for a tiny portable amplifier—great tones from clean to heavily overdriven, I tend to find the 'crunch' setting with gain just over half way a nice classic sound. I slightly wish that the delay was reverb instead, but if you set a short delay time you will get a room-like effect (like a very short slapback delay), and of course with a longer delay you can have fun lead sounds—I understand the product decision, it is more flexible than reverb.

A great thing to play the guitar in nature or on the street, the volume is enough to play in crowded places

Small and feisty
mirco.san 19.03.2021
This is a little beast. I took it out of the box thinking that something was a-miss... It weighs nothing. Then, while I was putting the batteries in (yes, it's battery powered, but you can also buy a power supply, which I did), I was chuckling like a little kid. It reminded me of a toy train or something.

Finally I plugged in the guitar, turned few knobs, did the clean test, not bad at all, turned few other knobs, put it in crunch and... WHAM! Then switched to brown and... KaBOOM!

Seriously, this is certainly a practice amp, but it is a super fun practice amp.

PROS:
- sounds good in every mode. The delay is a bit of a gimmick, but I did not play with it too much. EQ is ok.
- the plastic does not look cheap.

CONS:
- cannot think of any at this price and for what it is: a practice amp.
