Nashville 112 vs Boss Katana 100

Post by Bowie Martin »

Have been using the Nashville 112 for small events and really like sound. The Katana 100 has had some good reviews and weighs about 25% less. Looking for something lighter. How do they compare?

I have both, replaced the cab on the Katana 100 with solid pine, big sound improvement. I’m new to a modern country band on Pedal Steel, Tele and banjo, two inputs on the 112 allows me to have my Tele and steel plugged in, but it’s heavy. The Katana works well with Pedal Steel.

The Boss Katana 100 sounds great for my pedal steels and it's lightweight. Use the acoustic setting and go heavy on the bass knob.
