Boss are certainly knocking it out of the park with the Katana range!

Looks similar to the Cube Lite.  I can't wait to get one of these, I'm gonna preorder asap.

9" x 7". It's tiny.
That's smaller than the Cube Lite, isn't it?

Looks like a better version of the Fly 3!

Yeah I think it is actually.  Probably the smallest Boss / Roland amp out there.

Indeed, in fact they same to have shot to just make a better Fly 3.

The Fly 3 is no slouch itself, I might treat myself to one of these when they come out.

Like the Fly 3 - isn't the basic principle of it that you can sorta get a reverb-y kinda tone from delay settings...?

It could also be of course that you put the OD channel on and as bit of delay and it gets you a very easy "cool" guitar tone!

According to Chappers, there is a workaround. (Delay time = minimum. Delay level = maximum.) See video at 6:34.

This will be perfect for me, delivery date is August 2017, so not long to wait

Ironically, I tried this on the Fly 3 I have, and it's the first time I've heard it sound sh*t.

Maybe Boss have done a better job?  I have a Katana 50 and it is great, no question, I'd be amazed if the Mini isn't also great.

Hmm after reading up more on this forum I can see me ending up with the Katana 50!!, I'm 58 so there is still a slim chance I could use it for gigging

Any more thoughts on the Katana Mini? 

I was thinking of finally picking one up to replace my Cube 10.  I see the Katana Mini can be bought for the mere sum of £86.99 on Amazon.

Unless your Cube 10 is broken I'd keep your money or actually upgrade to a Katana 50, the Katana mini wont have much over a cube 10 they are neat little boxes.
