Powered by new lightning-fast BOSS tech, these ultra-compact music tools provide premium sound and plug-and-play operation that completely removes all the hassles normally associated with wireless systems.
Once you experience the easy wireless independence provided by the WL-20 series, you’ll never go back to using a standard cable again!

Lightning-Fast BOSS Wireless Technology
ultra-low latencyEquipped with high-performance BOSS wireless technology that was introduced in the Katana-Air wireless guitar amp, the WL-20 series delivers exceptional sound quality with wide dynamic range. Working in the 2.4 GHz frequency band, the optimum channel is set automatically to ensure rock-solid audio performance with absolutely no drop-outs.
With ultra-low latency of just 2.3 ms, you’ll always enjoy great playing feel with no lag at all. Up to 14 BOSS wireless systems can be used simultaneously in one space, allowing multiple musicians to enjoy wireless freedom at the same time.
Rock-Solid Audio Performance
Plug In and RockA WL-20 system is just as easy to use as a standard guitar cable. The small transmitter plugs into your instrument, while a matching receiver plugs into a pedal or amp. That’s it!
Automatic Wireless SetupWith the WL-20 series, there’s no awkward channel setup needed. Just dock the transmitter and receiver together for about 10 seconds to automatically set the optimum connection.
Easy Charging via USBWhen docked, the built-in batteries in the transmitter and receiver can be charged together with a standard USB adaptor (5 V/500 mA or higher), the same type used with the latest smartphones and tablets. The transmitter and receiver can also be charged separately, and a micro USB cable is included for charging.
Built-In Cable Tone SimulationIf you play a guitar or bass with standard passive pickups (the most common pickup type), the WL-20 model is probably your best choice. It includes built-in cable tone simulation, which reproduces the natural capacitive effect that’s introduced when using a 10-foot/3-meter guitar cable with passive pickups. This effect rolls off the treble very slightly, giving you the warm tone you’re used to hearing with a normal cable.
