We meet the no-cable guys

NAMM 2018: Many us now stream our music wirelessly, but our guitars? Not so much. However, Boss is seeking to change that with the Katana-Air, which it’s billing as “the world’s first wireless guitar amp system”.

We caught up with Boss at a rather dark NAMM 2018 to find out exactly how this thing works - and sounds. All is revealed in the video above.
