Boss

The ACS Pro from BOSS is a 120W combo amplifier particularly suitable for acoustic guitar players and singer/songwriters. It offers two independent channels, each with a discrete analog input stage, and each boasting its own three-band EQ section. One channel provides a 1/4" guitar input and a chorus effect. The other channel gives you a combination XLR/1/4" jack useful in connecting a vocal or instrument mic, or another instrument (such as a second guitar), all while providing a delay/echo effect to further enhance the sound. Both channels have resonance filters to help fight against feedback on stage.

The AC-3 Acoustic Simulator from BOSS is a useful effect that turns your electric guitar into a virtual acoustic. Using the propriety COSM modeling technology, the AC-3 features Standard, Jumbo, Enhanced, and Piezo-equipped modes, as well as a built-in reverb effect. Separate outputs, one for guitar amps and one for PAs or recorders, allow for versatile configurations for the stage or studio. The AC-3 gives you an acoustic-like tone without having to carry a separate guitar.

The BOSS 2-Way Selector AB-2 that makes changing inputs or outputs easy. One stomp is all it takes to instantly switch between two guitars or effects setups, change amplifiers or switch between an amp and tuner. Rock-solid BOSS construction ensures the AB-2 will stand the test of time.

Designed for the real-world needs of professional performing musicians, the ES-8 from BOSS is a highly programmable guitar effects switching system offering an unprecedented amount of routing flexibility. The ES-8 features eight effects loops with the ability to change the routing order and create parallel effects chains. The loops are controlled by an analog switch array that provides fast, flexible, and transparent switching. When a loop is not active, your guitar completely bypasses it for clear and pure signal transfer. Separate input and output buffers are available, and these can be switched on/off individually as needed.

Featuring five independent loops, the BOSS ES-5 is an advanced effects switching system that can fit on smaller pedalboards. Each of the five loops can be switched on or off with the silent vacuum-style footswitches, and/or reordered for exacting tone-crafting with your existing pedals. While the ES-5 is digitally controlled in order to facilitate advanced switching and bank storage, the signal relays are all analog to preserve your tone. For true-bypass switching, the buffers offered on the loops can be turned off for each individual loop, perfect for vintage effects that work better with high-impedance signals. All of the loop settings can be stored in the ES-5's 200 banks for instant recall.

Intended for guitarists, bassists, or keyboardists, the BOSS EQ-200 is a graphic equalizer with a host of usable features for the discerning player. For instance, you can switch between three different frequency ranges at will. EQ between 30 Hz to 12.8 kHz, 32.1 Hz to 16 kHz, or 28 Hz to 14 kHz. You'll have 10 bands of boost or cut, with a range of ±15 dB. The pedal can operate in mono, stereo, or dual mono for flexibility in tone shaping. You can store up to four custom curves in the memory bank, EQ the left and right independently or linked, and even place external gear in the insert path. Hook up an external footswitch or expression pedal and you've got real-time control over the pedal. MIDI connectivity is possible via two 3.5mm jacks, one for the input, the other for the output.

Get two distortion sounds in one pedal with the BOSS DS-2 Turbo Distortion. Selectable via the front panel or a separately available footswitch (such as the FS-5L), the DS-2 has two types of distortion on tap. The first mode, called Turbo Mode I, provides warm and mellow distortion with a flat frequency response. The second mode, called Turbo Mode II, adds more bite and midrange; great for kicking on in time for a solo. In addition to the mode selection, the front panel holds classic, easily adjustable controls for Level, Tone, and Distortion.

The DS-1 is a classic BOSS distortion pedal that has been used by many famous rock guitarists, such as Joe Satriani. This versatile pedal can be used for guitar or keyboards, and provides Distortion, Level and Tone control to tailor overall sound as desired.
