Reliable and quality audio 

The WL-50 fits snugly into your pedalboard where it can charge and provide up to 12 hours of continuous battery life. Setup only takes 10 seconds after plugging in the transmitter, so plug in and play in a pinch. You won't expect any signal drop-outs as the Boss wireless system works in a 2.4 GHz frequency for great audio. Ultra-low latency also prevents a lag between playing and the amp producing sound.

Creative design

The stompbox-sized receiver even contains a DC output to distribute power to connected pedals and keep your signal strong throughout your pedalboard. Move up to 50 metres away from the transmitter all the while perfect tone and get that groove on during the show completely cable-free.

Boss have designed a clever cable tone selection with three settings, to recreate the warm, rounded sound of cable connection. Choose short, long or bypass to select the length of cable you would like to simulate.

Absolutely amazing product. The WL-50 is so easy to set up and sounds brilliant with no noticeable latency. I’ve already gigged with it and had the freedom to run around the crowd and it sounded perfect. My one issue with it is I don’t like how it sticks out the end of the guitar so I bought a short Jack extension so I can strap it to my guitar strap which keeps it safe from snapping off the end of the guitar and looks way cooler.

A great piece of gear. Easy to set up in any venue and signal strength is impressive with no drop-outs during a gig. It sounds great with electric and acoustic guitars.

I really like the convenience of being able to quickly switch guitars. Works well. No loss in fidelity. Probably brighter than leads, even using the long lead setting.

I already own the waza air headphones so this seems like the logical next step to enjoy wireless freedom across my rig.
