Boss Nextone Artist - 80W

Description

This barely used guitar amp is in excellent condition. Tube amp simulation in a solid state package. Description: The BOSS Nextone Artist is an 80-watt, 1x12-inch modeling guitar combo amplifier that uses BOSS's Tube Logic technology to emulate the sound and response of tube amplifiers without the weight or maintenance. It features four selectable analog Class AB power amp circuits (6V6, 6L6, EL84, and EL34) and two channels (Clean and Lead) with standard and custom modes. Key specifications and features include: Weight: 16.2 kg (35 lbs 12 oz) / 35.75 lbs. Speaker: Custom 12-inch speaker (Boss G12-100). Controls: Clean and Lead channels with dedicated volume/gain knobs, a shared three-band EQ, and presence control. Effects: Built-in delay, tremolo, and reverb, plus an effects loop. Connectivity: USB for direct recording and re-amping, line out, and headphone output. Software: Compatible with the free Nextone Editor (macOS/Windows) for deep customization of sag, bias, tone stack, and effects. Power Attenuation: Dynamically responsive power control allows for cranked-up tone at reduced volumes. The amplifier is often compared to the BOSS Katana Artist, with users noting the Nextone offers more authentic tube-like power amp response and deeper parameter control via software, though it lacks the Katana's extensive onboard effects and speaker variety.
