BOSS Katana-Mini X 10W Portable Guitar Amplifier

BOSS Katana-Mini X Guitar Amplifier with Bluetooth

The BOSS Katana-Mini X Guitar Amplifier is a portable 10-watt practice amp with a custom 5-inch speaker, six selectable amp sounds, dual effects sections, Bluetooth audio streaming, and an internal rechargeable battery. Its multi-stage analog gain circuit and three-band tone stack deliver flexible electric guitar tones in a compact wood cabinet.

Designed for practice, jamming, travel, and compact home setups, the Katana-Mini X provides Brown, Crunch, and Clean amp types with a dedicated variation for each. The Clean variation offers a flat-response option suitable for acoustic-electric guitar and bass. Players can combine modulation and FX processing with reverb or delay while adjusting sounds directly from the front-facing controls.

Bluetooth A2DP support lets musicians stream backing tracks and other audio from a mobile device through the amplifier. A built-in guitar and bass tuner simplifies practice sessions, while the stereo Phones/Rec output provides cabinet-simulated sound for headphones or recording. The rechargeable Ni-MH battery delivers approximately 10 hours of operation and recharges through USB-C in about three hours.
