Due to musical differences I've decided I can't work with myself any more.

Might as well leave this here
After seeing this video I'd go for Katana 100 11 times out of 10...

In terms of tonal differences, I don't think the video really shows much difference in the cleans. I thought the jazzy stuff sounded good on both amps. The overdriven gain sounds better on the 100w which is what you would expect.
Here's another nice video with the 100 watt model. Great playing and tone from this guy and you can see his fingers very clearly so that's a bonus!

I tried out the Katana 50 in a local guitar shop. I thought it was really great, super impressed by the onboard effects options and the price point is incredible. I don't have much at all when it comes to effects pedals so I am really considering one, probably the 100W due to the extra options and better speaker. The main con for me is the pure size of the amp, I'd never use that power, my current amp is a similar size and it's too big really, though the Katana does have the attenuator. I could also just buy a Boss multi-effects unit to try out effects and save a few euro.

Bought a preowned katana 50 yesterday. I haven't been able to connect it to my very old computer that's still running Windows Vista, but it's pretty good just on what's there to start. Lovely sound even on low volumes which is what I needed in an amp.

Not sure if it would give you anything you don’t already have.

It is very useful with it’s built in attenuation switch and line out. I did like the different amp settings but ultimately traded it in for the Laney.
If the lack of footswitch and ability to only use 2 fx at once is ok for you then maybe it’s worth considering.
My gut feeling is you should save your money.
