    Packed with killer tones, massive effects, sound-on-sound looping, and 24-bit sound quality.

    The Boss GT-10 is a multi-effect guitar pedal driven by the latest custom-made Boss DSP and their proprietary Composite Object Sound Modeling (COSM). The GT-10 pedal is a floorboard powerhouse that offers massive effects capability, natural musical response and a marked improvement in sound quality. The Boss GT-10 is also loaded with an innovative user interface including EZ TONE which allows you to create new sounds with the most intuitive and easy-to-use interface ever.

    Advanced sound

    Powered by the custom-made new-generation processor and BOSS proprietary sound modeling method COSM, the GT-10 guitar pedal ushers in a new era of audio quality for guitarists. BOSS' huge accumulated know-how of effects and sound modeling are fully integrated into this flagship multi-effects floorboard. As a result, tone quality is supreme, and response to playing dynamics is much more natural and musical. And not just for the stage—the GT-10 is also great in the studio thanks to its USB capability and digital output.

    EZ TONE wizard

    The GT-10 is a pro players dream, but it's also friendly and easy-to-use. The innovative EZ Tone wizard helps you create top-quality sounds quickly. It offers a truly intuitive approach based on graphical icons to get the sounds that guitarists are imagining. No more struggling with parameters on the LCD or multiple cursor commands. As well as the EZ TONE, managing the GT-10 multi-effect pedal is truly intuitive. For example, the Positional Tone Control allows tone and effects creation via a revolutionary Tone Grid where you place the pointer in a spatial area depending on what kind of tone or effects you want. Value of the essential parameters shown can be increased/decreased immediately by tweaking four rotary encoder knobs below the LCD. Operation is similar to having compact pedals on a pedal-board quickly jumping from any effect to any effect.

    More flexibility and possibility

    Boss GT-10's PARALLEL CHAIN offers two separate effects paths including COSM amp models for super tone capability or seamless switching from a clean tone to a heavy tone and vice versa. Two channels can be used simultaneously or blended by expression pedal, or even switched by playing dynamics.

    Phrase Looper Built-In

    GT-10 comes equipped with PHRASE LOOPER. This inspiring feature allows phrases to be created using sound-on-sound loop recording for performance, practice, or as a sketchpad.

    USB Connectivity

    Connect the GT-10 pedal to a wide range of external gear via its rear-panel USB port, where audio and MIDI data (bulk data) can be streamed digitally to computers, digital recorders, or other compatible devices. Safely transfer precious data to and from the GT-10 via USB as well.

    Quality Construction

    It's a BOSS tradition to build gear that looks great, is user friendly, and stands up to the rigors of the road. The GT-10 is no exception, with its strong, stylish design, and six dedicated footswitches plus expression pedal. The high-contrast LCD and LED make using the GT-10 multi-effect pedal a breeze even on dark stages or in glaring sunlight. The sturdy metal chassis is BOSS road-tough.

    Better than pod hd500

    | Review By: Accugroove Rocks | 6 months, 7 hours ago

    8 people out of 9 found this review helpful

    Features:

    Pretty easy to use. Lots of goodies. I own this and an hd500. This has more useable features

    Quality:

    More rugged than hd500. I'd get two for tour, but not worry at all in real life

    Value:

    You could record the history of electric guitar on this and do a pretty good job. Not as "cool" as tube amps and giant pedalboards, but it  also gives you legit access to tonal regions you'd probably never reach with a traditional rig. Stumble across a spacy loopy pad sound for an intro/outro? Cool.

     

    It's a shame that less experienced players will spend way more climbing the food chain.

    Overall:

    Sounds great. IMHO it really crushes the pod hd500. I'm a hand wired tube amp snob (Victoria, Blueverb, Kingsley, Allen, Fender, Samamp, Kalamazoo) but for getting true pro tone fast, this is unbeatable.

    This is an awesome pedalboard and has all the FX I need! I use it through the FX loop of my amp and it sounds flawless. The only thing I did not really like was the distortion pedals and amp models. They sound good if you connect the gt-10 directly to your computer or a mixing board but they don't get along with my amp. With this pedal I got a noise gate, acoustic simulator, reverb, delay, flanger, wah wah, and anything I could ask for. There is no point on spendind more money and make a mess with lots of pedals when you can get the quality in one single metal box.

    The Epitome of Modern Tone Shaping. CAUTION: You Will Never Go On Stage Without It Again

    | Review By: mike_rockon_6 | 9 months, 2 weeks ago

    8 people out of 9 found this review helpful

    Features:

    You simply cannot find an effects unit in the price range with more features than this piece of gear has to boast. With 2 separate effects loops, USB connectivity, 5 different ways to output, midi capability, built in phrase looper, COSM effects processor, an easy to use interface, and 200 presets, its needless to say that you will not want to quit playing for days after buying it. Along with these features comes my favorite: amp control. With a stereo 1/4" cable, it will never again matter that you lost the footswitch to that old tube head. This is because the GT-10 is smart enough to change your amp channels for you. As for me, I want the tone of my Mesa Boogie Single Rectifier to shine through with full force, have a minimal amount of floor pedals, have effects, and get the perfect tone. With the GT-10, this is all not only possible, but easy.

    Quality:

    I have owned this effects unit for longer than one year, it has been gigged all over Kentucky and surrounding areas and used in the studio. Not a day goes by that this piece of gear is not in use, and has it ever had even one slight problem? NO it has not. This baby is meant to be gigged and holds up like a champ. With its large LED screen, metal chassis, and high quality knobs, its everything short of bulletproof. More simply put, its a BOSS product.

    Value:

    If my house were to burn down today, what would I want to save? My Gibson Les Paul Flood, Mesa Boogie Single Rectifier, and BOSS GT-10. If I could not make it to my BOSS GT-10 safely before the house burnt down, I would replace it the day of the fire. Simply put, it is irreplacable in my setup. My tone recieves compliments each time I step on the stage and many local guitarists even attempt to mimic my setup. The BOSS GT-10 is the reason. Everything about it makes it one piece of gear that I will NEVER get rid of. It is irreplacable for any serious guitarists rig.

    Overall:

    I hate to be what one would call an "easy critic" and give a product 10s in all categories, but try this product out and you will understand why. I have completely picked apart every feature of this unit to try to find something that was left out or done poorly, and its simple. This unit is the very best, in all categories. If I gave it any less than a 10, I would be lying about my feelings for the GT-10. Do yourself a favor: sell old gear, mortgage your house, get an extra part time job, sell your firstborn, or whatever it takes to get this piece of equipment. You will never get more bang for your buck than you will with the GT-10.

    The thing to me that stands out with the GT-10 is that it is touch senitive..as you turn down your guitar the GT-10 is responive like a guitar amp. Lots of good tones as you turn down. Some multi effects processors do not clean up at all as you turn down...this does.

    Lots of great sounds in here> I like the harmonizer .. better than most..good sounding 3 parts.

    Live hands on tweaking...Great sceen when the lights go out. Highly visable LED's. No problems in sun light doing out door gig's.

    There's more control over pram's than you'll out grow. Tons of ways to control pram's in different orders. You decide your ease and order for ease of use live.

    I recommend using it through a tube amp for live shows. This will give you the wall of sound that GT-10 gives..it shines.

    I've had this     GT-10 for over a year. Playing ever week live

    I really like the steel. Had a mixed drink spilt on the GT-10 one night..Did not hurt it. Keep a rag in the case near by ...saved me.

    Construction is good quality. Color hides all most all dirt .. Won't find finger prints, if any. Have to clean it anyway. Just to keep it looking good..But you may not have too.

    Pricey ... but you get what you pay for here.

    Excelente pedalera

    Overall:

    Excelente pedalera; excelentes efectos, gran sonido si elegimos bien la caja de amplificaci    n y el altavoz; a diferencia de la line6 HD300 la GT-10 carece de salidas opcionales para que sea conectada a un sistema PA o a un sistema de amplificaci    n de guitarra y para mi eso es una gran limitaci    n.

    Muy buena distribuci    n de los pedales y botones, muy intuitiva, a    n cuando puede resultar algo complejo aprender a manejarla fluidamente para obtener el sonido exacto que queremos.     La pantalla es visualmente atractiva e informativa.

    Excelente calidad de efectos, los parches originales son buenos, unos pocos excelentes y el resto muy buenos.     Definitivamente requiere de una buena caja de amplificaci    n y altavoces de calidad de guitarra para aprovecharla y apreciar todo su potencial.     A trav    s de un sistema PA suena muy mal, se requiere propiamente un amplificador y altavoz de guitarra de buena calidad.     Tambi    n tengo la pedalera line6 HD300 que es tambi    n excelente y ambas son apropiadas para hacer m    sica rock, blues, ambient, experimental, soul, etc.     Creo que ninguna es mejor que otra y mi preferencia la determina el sonido que quiero obtener para la pieza musical que estoy creando.
