Boss Nextone Artist

Combining classic tube tone and feel with next-generation tonal diversity, the BOSS Nextone series presents an exciting new concept in professional guitar amplification. Distinctive channel voicings deliver a wide range of inspiring tones, while four selectable Class AB analog power amp types provide direct access to the unique features of 6V6, 6L6, EL84 and EL34 output tube sections. Supported by our advanced Tube Logic approach, each power amplifier type re-engages the entire circuit from input to output, bringing the complete sound experience of these distinctive output stages to one amplifier for the first time.

Want to dive deeper with even more sound customization? Connect to the Nextone Editor and become a virtual technician, perfectly tuning bias, sag and other internal settings to your personal style and sound quality. The Nextone also includes convenient modern features for the stage, such as built-in effects, a line out for direct tone without a mic, and a power control for expressive cranked-amp sound at manageable volumes. And thanks to Tube Logic, you can enjoy all the great sound and response of your favorite tube designs without the debilitating weight and constant hassle of maintenance.
