BOSS NEXTONE Stage 40W Combo Amplifier for Electric Guitars

Designed for electric guitar players, the BOSS NEXTONE Stage is a guitar amplifier intended to give you the feel of tubes without the weight or fussiness that come along with valve technology. Four tube-based Class AB power amp sections have been modeled for this amp. They are switchable on the front panel. 6V6, 6L6, EL84, and EL34 output tube sections have all been emulated down to the circuit path of the I/O, ensuring an authentic tube feel.

The amp itself pushes 40W of power through a custom 1x12" speaker, giving you two-channel operation. Not only can you select between clean and lead tones, you can also hit the Boost and Tone switches for extra crunch and high-end. Effects such as reverb and delay are built into the amplifier, though more effects are achievable by connecting the amp to Nextone Editor software. The ability to fine-tune tube bias, power-amp sag, equalization, and other settings are possible via the Nextone Editor.

A panoply of I/O options can be found on the rear of the amplifier, including a line out, a record/headphone out, three speaker outs, an effects loop, and a USB connection for reamping and for recording directly to computers. Two footswitch inputs are on hand to help you put footswitches under foot. One receives a TRS input for controlling channel select and boost, while the other allows you to control the onboard delay. Footswitches are available separately, while a power cable is included.
