Boss Katana Bass 500 head - as new, five year warranty

Boss Katana Bass 500 amp head, KTN500B HD.

Newly purchased (three months ago), never left the living room. Probably less than three hours of power-on time. Under five year transferrable warranty (until December 2030).

This is a clean, powerful and versatile amp, particularly if you dive deep into the Boss Tone Studio software where every parameter can be tweaked. It’s quite remarkable.

Includes printed copies of the owner’s manual and Boss Tone Studio manual.

See specs below for details.

Price listed is for the head only. Also available is the Boss Bluetooth Audio MIDI Adapter, Boss GA-FC EX Foot Controller, and the Boss CB-VE22 padded carry case. I purchased these separately and will include them for an additional €200 if desired.

Come try it for yourself if interested. I currently have two Markbass cabinets but you could bring your own along if desired.

Collection only, Rathdrum, Co. Wicklow (no, I’m never in or near Dublin).
