KATANA:GO delivers premium sound for everyday playing without the hassle of amps, pedals, and computer interfaces. Simply plug it in, connect earbuds or headphones, call up a memory, and start rocking. Onboard controls provide access to volume, memory selection, and other essential functions, and you can easily view the current memory and tuner with the built-in display. The rechargeable battery provides up to five hours of continuous playing time, and the integrated 1/4-inch plug folds down to create a pocket-size package that’s ready to travel anywhere.
KATANA:GO drives your sessions with genuine sounds from the best-selling Katana stage amp series. Guitar mode features 10 unique amp characters, including clean, crunch, the high-gain BOSS Brown type, two characters optimized for acoustic/electric guitar, and more. There’s also a dedicated bass mode with Vintage, Modern, and Flat types directly ported from the Katana Bass amplifiers. Each mode includes a massive library of BOSS effects to explore, with deep sound customization available in the companion BOSS Tone Studio app for iOS and Android.
The innovative Stage Feel feature in KATANA:GO provides an immersive playing experience realized with advanced BOSS spatial technology. Presets allow you to position the amp and backing music in different places in the sound field, giving the impression of playing with a backline on stage or jamming in a room with friends. It’s even possible to personalize the sound field with the intuitive tools in BOSS Tone Studio.
The guitar and bass modes in KATANA:GO each feature 30 memories that come loaded with ready-to-play sounds. Using BOSS Tone Studio, you can tweak the preset memories, create sounds from scratch, or import Tone Setting memories created with stage-class Katana guitar and bass amplifiers. The app also provides integrated access to BOSS Tone Exchange, where you can download professionally curated Livesets and share sounds with the global BOSS community.
With KATANA:GO and your smartphone, you have a complete mobile solution to supercharge daily practice. Warm up by jamming along with songs from your music library. Then tap into the powerful Session feature in BOSS Tone Studio to hone your chops with YouTube learning content. Build song lists to create an organized routine and loop sections for focused study. You can even set timestamps and have KATANA:GO switch memories automatically while playing with YouTube backing tracks!
The versatile KATANA:GO also functions as a USB audio interface for music production and online content creation on a computer or mobile device. Record professional Katana tones in DAW software. Or connect to your favorite social media and video capture apps and share your fretboard skills with the world. In either application, you can employ the Stage Feel function to add depth and dimension to your instrument’s sound and backing music streamed via Bluetooth audio.
The optional EV-1-WL Wireless MIDI Expression Pedal and FS-1-WL Wireless Footswitch expand the KATANA:GO experience with remote control functions that you assign in BOSS Tone Studio. Control volume and wah, select memories, turn effects on/off, and more—all with a cable-free connection. Learn more at the EV-1-WL and FS-1-WL product pages.

Musos Corner is proud to be an authorised retailer and highly recommends Boss musical products.
The first Boss guitar effects pedal was released in 1976, the CE1 Chorus Ensemble and contained the chorus / vibrato unit from the famous JC120 Jazz Chorus amplifier.
Vintage Boss pedals are now very collectable and can command some unrealistic figures.
Today the Boss ethos of reliability and innovation continues to make it a very popular choice for effect pedals and amplifiers.
Boss products are built tough for everyday use regardless of the application and Musos Corner is an authorised service agent for the entire catalogue.
If we don’t already have your dream Boss musical product in stock or listed online, contact us at Musos Corner today.
