Equally suited for beginners, weekend warriors, and travelling players, the GT-1 packs premium sound in a compact and rugged package.

He started playing bass and guitar in 1998, and played the local scene throughout his teen years before life got in the way.

The Boss multi-effects pedal features their leading sound engine from the GT series of pedals, offering a range of world class amps and effects that suit all types of music. It's been superseded by the Me-90 which does not appear to my untutored eyes/ears to be all that different, apart from a few new fancy bells and whistles. It’s surprisingly lightweight and compact, yet still delivers the rugged durability that BOSS is famous for. You should get an instant answer on whether your application has been successful, though in some rare cases Klarna or V12 may need to look at the application in more detail. It looks very similar to high-end modeling units like the Line 6 Helix series, which is never a bad thing.

This will have an impact on your tone, so it’s definitely worth ensuring you have the closest possible match to your rig setup. Boss has incorporated their history of effects processing, from the OD-1 overdrive, to modern effects powered by MDP technology, as well as a range of COSM amp tones.The dedicated CTL1 switch can be assigned to a range of functions like tap tempo, or effects on/off, while the expression pedal and toe switch can be used for volume, wah, and other effects parameters.

The pedal can be powered by either an AC adaptor or 4 AA batteries, and with features such as jack inputs for additional expression pedals, and a USB port for recording and connecting with a DAW and Boss software – this pedal is a great choice for any guitarist who is ready to get serious about their music.

So in addition to the light weight making it highly portable, the flexible power options also present fewer limits on where you can use the GT-1. Once you do get it connected to your computer you have you install all the drivers and then you can install the Boss Tone Studio software, which lets you tweak patches or download patches, and you can update the firmware on the GT-1. The pedal can be powered by either an AC adaptor or 4 AA batteries, with up to 7 hours of battery life when constantly used, perfect for playing street gigs, backstage, or on-the-go.
