If you know, you know.
The Katana circuit is Robert Keeley’s first guitar effect design for Keeley Electronics. The Katana is no less stunning in its beautiful simplicity and stunning sound quality. The Keeley Katana Boost features two modes, Pure Clean and High Gain. With the speed knob Pushed In, think of it as a volume control that goes to 20. With the speed knob Pulled Out, it’s a cutting boost with a bit of gain.
Not quite an overdrive, just overdriven tube grit and edge to your tone. Dual FETs give the Keeley Katana Boost the most tube like tone in a transistor design. The Katana Boost also features Power Doubling on the inside so when you put 9VDC in, Keeley uses a charge pump to nearly double operating voltage!

What do higher power supply voltage rails mean?! -> SUPER CLEAN HIGH-HEADROOM BOOST! Pull the Level knob out to switch -> Tube-like gain! THE EDGE!!!!
Bonus: with more and more famous guitarists using this, the value will only increase over time.
