BOSS KATANA AIR GUITAR AMPLIFIER

PREMIUM TONE, WIRELESS FREEDOM
Meet the Katana-Air, the world’s first totally wireless guitar amplifier. Featuring new cutting-edge wireless guitar technology developed by BOSS, the Katana-Air gives you the freedom to jam and practice without hassling with guitar cables. And with support for battery operation, there’s no need to plug into AC either, so you can literally play anywhere!

Though compact in size, the Katana-Air is serious about sound quality. Equipped with pro amp tones and effects from the performance-class Katana amplifiers, this wireless wonder delivers premium guitar sounds for any style of music. To further extend the cable-free experience, you can wirelessly edit and organise sounds with a dedicated app and jam with songs streamed from your smartphone. With the innovative Katana-Air and your favourite axe, casual playing has never been more convenient and inspiring.

FEATURES

  • Totally wireless guitar amplifier with newly developed BOSS technology delivers rock-solid sound with ultra-low latency
  • Custom wireless transmitter plugs into any electric guitar and charges while docked in the amp
  • Transmitter provides 12 hours of playing time on a single charge, and automatically enters standby mode to conserve the charge when no activity is detected
  • Always ready to play, with motion sensing technology in the transmitter that instantly wakes the amp from power-saving standby mode
  • Premium tones derived from the Katana stage amplifier series, with five unique amp characters and access to over 50 world-class BOSS effects
  • Six onboard memories for storing favourite amp and effects setups
  • Powerful stereo speaker system with full-range sound and up to 30 watts of power*
  • Edit and organise tones wirelessly with the BOSS Tone Studio app for iOS and Android mobile devices
  • Play along with music streamed wirelessly from a mobile device via Bluetooth®
  • Amplifier powered by eight AA-size batteries or included AC adapter
  • Aux in for connecting wired devices, plus headphones/recording out for silent practice and music production

*The Katana-Air produces 30 watts of power when connected to AC, and 20 watts of power when running on batteries.

The Ultimate Convenience for Jamming and Practice
With its premium Katana sound engine and wireless operation, the Katana-Air makes it easy to enjoy rich, dynamic guitar tones—complete with advanced BOSS effects—anytime and anywhere. And that means you’ll play more often, improve your skills, and have more fun. 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. Just plug the Katana-Air’s transmitter into your guitar and riff with great sound from anywhere in the room! Thanks to its portable size and ability to run on batteries, the Katana-Air is an equally great companion for travel, parties, jam sessions with friends, and more.

High-Performance Wireless Technology from BOSS
The Katana-Air features new low-latency digital wireless guitar technology developed by BOSS, providing transparent sound and ultra-quick response without any lag or dropouts. The included custom wireless transmitter plugs into any electric guitar, and has indicators for power and battery status. A convenient docking port in the amp charges the battery in the transmitter, providing up to 12 hours of total playing time per charge.

Premium Katana Amp and Effects Tones
Equipped with the same tones and sound-shaping controls found in the performance-class Katana amplifiers, the Katana-Air offers inspiring sounds for any style. Five unique amp characters provide a wide range of tones, from sparkling clean to BOSS’s custom high-gain Brown sound. There’s even an Acoustic character optimised for playing acoustic-electric guitar. The amp also provides integrated access to over 50 BOSS effects, including mod, delay, reverb effects optimised for the Katana-Air’s stereo speaker system. And with six onboard memories, you can store and recall your favourite amp and effects setups at any time.

BOSS Tone Studio for iOS and Android Devices
Katana-Air is made even more powerful with its support for external wireless operation via Bluetooth. Available for iOS and Android devices, the dedicated BOSS Tone Studio app gives you complete control of Katana-Air right from your smartphone or tablet. You’re able to adjust all the amp’s panel controls and access effects types and routings that are only available from the app. You can also save setups to the amp’s memories, organize sound libraries on your device, and download free patch collections directly from BOSS Tone Central

Listen to Your Favourite Music and Play Along
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. Over Bluetooth, you can stream music from your mobile device and play along with popular songs, backing tracks, YouTube lessons, and more. And when you just want to kick back, Katana-Air performs double-duty as a high-quality mobile Bluetooth speaker for enjoying tunes from your music library.

This product is covered by a 5 year manufacturer warranty.

Although we are not authorised to determine if any repair is covered under warranty, if the item was purchased through World of Music, then we are often the best people to facilitate the claim for you and will do so as timely as possible. Warranty does not apply to cosmetic damage or faults that are a result of user neglect. Although your mate is really handy with a soldering iron, any product modification or home repair will also result in a void warranty.

Quite often, something perceived as a fault is as simple as a faulty cable or power issue so we always suggest checking over Frequently Asked Questions on the manufacturer website first. It can be a helpful approach to getting to the bottom of a problem and save you a lot of time in getting your gear back up and running!
