As far as guitar clean boosts go, the Katana is KING TONE. It's the pedal to have for the finishing touch on your tone.

Want a mirror image of your tone, only louder? This is it. The Katana is also a fat, harmonically rich boost, just pull out on the volume knob and stretch your imagination with overdriven tone! You can keep it on all the time to push your amp harder, or as an occasional boost to cut through the mix.

Obsessed or Compelled with the Fattest, Fullest Drive? Well, Before other people started using Blue LED's and non-diode clipping stages, there was the TMB and Katana.... Cascading FET stages do the tube-amp-thing like nothing else!

The Katana circuit is Robert Keeley's first guitar effect design for Keeley Electronics. It was originally designed for Legendary Tones for the Time Machine Boost but then became an independent product under the Keeley name after the Compressor came out. Robert's very first effect pedal design (1999) was a digitally controlled Analog Delay complete with built in digital tuner. It worked perfectly and can even be seen at the shop from time to time. Delay times could be input via a keypad to enter the amount of delay in milliseconds or by potentiometers. The Katana is no less stunning in its beautiful simplicity and stunning sound quality.

The unit sounds great. I'm a pedal collector, so i can compare it with a lot of other boosts. This one doesn't sound like the others, and especially the time machine boost, that Robert Keeley has designed for Legendary Tones. The TMB is Clean, really clean. Katana is a little more. For me the sound is more aggressive, even in real clean sound (pushed position) I love it. But the best is when you pull the knob : This unit drives your amp or your favorite pedal like nothing else! I love the Keeley boss MT2 mod. I also love to drive this pedal with OD1, or TS9... And i have to admit, the Katana has something that makes the MT2 SCREAM! Incredible! In my opinion, the TMB is great, especially because it has in one box a clean boost and a treble/middle boost, but the frequency response of the Katana is better.

The Katana keeps everything incredibly tight and punchy and focused. It's my amp..PLUS more of my amp. My band, Still Division just recorded our new demo cd..and already people are interested. One of the main comments was.."the guitar tones are amazing".
