It's right on the Gatherer page... "If your legendary creatures and planeswalkers are all colorless, you can activate Mox Amber’s ability, but you won’t add any mana. Colorless is not a color."

(Asked by: username_0 on 2018-06-04)

If I have one of the [Karn planeswalkers](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?action=advanced&type=[Planeswalker]&name=+[Karn]) in play as my only legendary permanent can I then tap my [Mox Amber](http://gatherer.wizards.com/Pages/Search/Default.aspx?name=%2b%5bMox%20Amber%5d) for a colourless mana?

No.

Colorless is not a color; Mox Amber can never produce colorless because it says it produces "any color [...]".

> 105.4. If a player is asked to choose a color, they must choose one of the five colors. “Multicolored” is not a color. Neither is “colorless.”
