Boss have built the perfect performance amp for Acoustic Singer/Songwriters while drawing on some smart technology to simulate traditional Amp Mic’ing setups and delivering it through a fully Immersive Stereo soundstage.

 

You have extensive controls to fine-tune both Vocal and Acoustic Guitar inputs - but there are none of the usual Katana effects and tricks here - this is intended as a more purist stripped down affair - letting the instrument and voice breathe and resonate pretty naturally - then supported by a Rhythm Box and Looper section - all kind of as if used for those legendary MTV Unplugged sessions. In fact let’s just call it the Boss ’MTV Unplugged’ Amp as that is very much the kind of experience it delivers.

 

Also unlike the Katanas - everything is very surface here - and immediately at your fingertips for impromptu fine-tuning.

 

Also looks really rather sophisticated in its Chocolate and Gold colourway!

 

Boss have obviously liaised very closely with high-flight acoustic performers, and crafted the perfect gig rig for their intimate performances.

 

I think we’re onto a another winner here!

AIR FEEL

  • Dry - Clear amplified pickup sound
  • XY - Focused stereo sound with a good balance between the strings and body resonance. Ideal for rhythmic chord strumming and muted playing
  • AB - Wide stereo sound with naturally expanded acoustic resonance. Produces a big, full sound that’s great for solo guitar and fingerpicking styles
  • ORTF - Special stereo Mic technique that produces a focused tone while capturing more depth and body resonance
  • Mid Side - Well-defined sound with wide stereo spread. Adds a sense of distance, providing a nice ensemble blend with vocals and other instruments
