The Keeley Katana Clean Boost V1: Pure Tone and Powerful Boost
Transparent Tone with Endless Boost Options
The Keeley Katana Clean Boost V1 delivers a pristine, uncolored boost that enhances your tone without compromise. Perfect for players who want a mirror image of their natural sound but louder, this pedal also offers a rich, harmonically fat overdriven tone when you pull out the volume knob. Whether you use it to push your amp harder or as a solo boost to cut through the mix, the Katana is a versatile tool for any rig.
Cascading FET Stages for Tube-Amp-Like Performance
With cascading FET stages, the Keeley Katana Clean Boost achieves the warmth and dynamics of a tube amp. This design, developed by Robert Keeley, brings unparalleled clarity and responsiveness to your sound, making it ideal for players seeking the fattest, fullest drive tones. Before blue LEDs and non-diode clipping stages became popular, the Katana was already setting the standard for innovative boost circuits.
A Legacy of Excellence in Pedal Design
The Katana circuit represents Robert Keeley’s first foray into guitar effect design, originally developed in collaboration with Legendary Tones for the Time Machine Boost. Since its inception, it has become a hallmark of Keeley Electronics, demonstrating a commitment to tone and quality that remains unmatched. The simplicity of the Katana's design hides its incredible sonic potential, making it a go-to choice for professionals and enthusiasts alike.
Always-On or Dynamic Performance
Flexibility defines the Keeley Katana Clean Boost. Use it as an always-on pedal to add extra punch to your amp or activate it selectively for standout moments in your performance. The unique pull-out volume knob gives you instant access to a richer, overdriven sound, adding layers of expression to your playing.
Built for Durability and Tone Purity
Every Keeley Katana Clean Boost V1 is crafted to provide years of reliable performance. Its simple, robust design ensures it withstands the demands of regular gigging while preserving your tone’s purity and integrity.
