BOSS Katana Air Wireless Guitar Amplifier

The fully charged wireless transmitter provides up to 12 hours of continuous operation, but in normal use it lasts much longer thanks to its automatic, motion-sensing standby mode that kicks in when no activity is detected. The Katana-Air's Booster/Mod, Delay/FX, and Reverb controls give you easy 1-knob access to each effects type, with a color-coded button to switch between preset effects. It's well made and compact from a design perspective, but you cannot get away from the fact that it has 2 tiny speakers that really don't deliver. Cooler still is when you use the Tone Studio app to and use a 360-degree rotation control over where you place your guitar and audio positions. You get full control over the amps top panel controls wirelessly, so you can shape your tone without tweaking the amp directly.

You can also make use of the new Boss Tone Studio App for iOS and Android, allowing you to tweak your sounds to the finest detail while on the move - then you can connect your device via bluetooth and your tone is pre-dialed. There are also a 1/8-inch headphone/recording output jack and a ¼-inch input should you choose not to use the wireless transmitter. A bit expensive though, but for the things you can do and the sounds ,I can justify the cost at least . None of this limits its value as a practice amp, where the ability to hear your sounds (privately, through headphones, or in the room at modest levels) and hone your skill is more important than shaking your neighbor's windows. The Katana-Air is a true stereo amplifier with two custom-tuned speakers and up to 30 watts of total power, delivering big, rich sound for both guitar amplification and full-range music reproduction.

You can also record tracks directly to computer music software via USB and use the stereo line output with mic’d cab emulation for live performances in direct-to-PA setups. The wireless Katana-Air is made even more powerful with its support for external wireless operation via Bluetooth. The Katana range has made a name for itself as a winning formula -the ultimate practice amps that are also surprisingly gigable.When you want to jam at home, there’s no need to set up your big rig or rely on the dry, boxy sound of a mini practice amp. The distortion and clean tones are ideal for any style of music, and the selection of effects is generous and comprehensive. You can then choose which finance term you'd like to apply for, and change your deposit if you wish. BOSS’s Katana Air amplifier takes the same celebrated sounds of the Katana range and puts them in a super-portable, wireless package. Static activates the gyro sensor and places the amp and ambient room sound in front of you and pans it in relation to your head movements.
