Boss 75-Watt Waza Craft Amp

Boss' first 150-watt Waza Craft amp impressed a lot of folks with its solid state-posing-as-tube sleight of hand sonics. Because it was pretty loud, Boss introduced a 75-watt version for Summer NAMM. Like its big cousin, it comes with the Waza Brown Sound plug-in module that made the first version a hit, but you can still expand the already wide tone spectrum with optional plug-in modules. This version will clock in at $1,499.
