BOSSGT-1 Guitar Multi-Effects Pedal

I have a line 6 Helix huge pedal board I have a line 6 pod go and I love them both but they are both lacking in several things such as portability size and ease of use.This little boss multi effects pedal might be small but it packs a punch it sounds very good connected directly to the audio mixer and it's easy to use live it has bright LEDs in the best part is that I can use for double a batteries.It is made out of plastic but it is very resistant and it seems very well built I love it, it also fits on any of my guitar cases.

Pretty amazing for what it cost. It is user friendly. I have not been able to get the "country twang" I'm looking for. I wish someone would make a multi just for that. The drives, gains, and distortion are very good, as well as other effects. I have not been online yet. My pedal eats batteries. They last about an hour. You definitely need to get a 9 volt with at least .75 amps... negative tip power supply. Of course Boss wants you to buy theirs. I bought a generic for about 10. If you like drive, gain, and distortion I think you will love this pedal. And of course what you are running it into is everything. Overall I'm pleased and do not regret this purchase. If it had an equalizer it would be amazing. But for the cost .....wow, wow,wow.1/3/2023 It does have two equalizers, but three band. Took me awhile to find them. Gonna buy another one.

An absolutely wonderful product I had the zoom g1x4 and this is an absolute upgrade. Makes my Les Paul sounds so beautiful. I would absolutely recommend this product to anybody and everybody. I would also recommend watching some of the tutorial videos on YouTube to become a little more familiar with the operations of this device as trying to follow along with the directions in the owner's manual is a little difficult.

Great intro level multi-effects pedal. I upgraded after about 8 years from a zoom gt2.1 to this and am pleasantly surprised with how multieffects pedals have improved. This pedal has tons of features for a more power level user such as guitar simulation, tons of preamps, and eq specifications, but also has pretty clear entry level stuff with just overdrive/distortions and some cool fxs. The software is ok and works on my 2015 mac. I will say that it is more convenient to use the software if you plan on making a lot of adjustments compared to the actual pedal. The presets are ok, but like most multi pedals need to be reworked. The downloadable presets from Boss in my opinion are NOT good. There are very few presets available and there is not a community webpage where people can uplaod presets which is unfortunate. Volume pedal seems good and responsive so far after about 3 months, but occassionally does squeak upon pressing it down.one aesthetic con that annoys me is that there is no off switch. I dont want to leave my pedal on all the time so i constantly have to unplug the power source from the pedal which is annoying. Also looper function is not super convenient, but is still nice to have. Compared to my old zoom pedal this does not have any drum machine function, but does allow you change the order that the effects are arranged in (i.e. can change the order so that its OD -> FX1 -> guitar or FX1 -> OD -> guitar)Overall 4 stars because of some minor annoyances and problems, but very sturyd, well designed pedal with tons of options for the price. Not a super expensive multi effects pedals but has all the options you could ever want and need for a live show. Also battery usage is convenient.

Great pedal, does way more than I know how to use. Very versatile and great sound. Great quality.... now all I have to do is learn how to use it. I do wish it had more options for presetting a desired sound to a specific footswitch, but for now, this will do fine and I can always add an FS7 or something like that when I get proficient enough to use it like that. All I needed was some distortion, and I certainly have that an a whole lot more. Great pedal!

I was looking for a basic delay/reverb unit to put in the loop of my mixer for practice purposes. Cost was important and I didn't need a lot of effects. It turns out that this little guy is so good that I am going to use it for recording also. It has lots of good sounding BOSS effects and the software is really good (I have been using the BOSS software for a long time for my SY-300). It takes up a small amount of rare desk space and has convenient on/off switches for preamp (i.e. amp), O/D, delay, reverb and two other FX. I tried the wah effect briefly when I was setting it up and it was cool.

I'm a beginner with a guitar and a cheap marshal amp. I wanted to experiment with pedal fx and also connect my guitar to my computer. It seems like this thing has almost every pedal ever made built in to it. It's made by Boss. If history is any indicator, and if this thing lasts, I'm sure it'll retain more value than most other multi effect digital pedals. Is it 48Khz? no, it's 44.1. is it 24bit yes. so, it's not as good sampling ratewise as a USB interface, but, it's also an actual pedal. If I cared more and wanted to spend more money I'd have bought the higher end units. For me as a beginner, still learning and curious this was the perfect thing. To be clear, I'd already bought and returned a Behringer USB interface as well as a Focusrite. Neither were fantastic. This thing is Fantastic, for guitar. One thing though, it's handy to find a way to deal with the ground loop somehow in order to quiet the USB interface when playing out through an separate amp.
