Boss GT-6 Guitar Effects Customer Review

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
i overall rate it the best thing on the market aside from midi- synth processesers!
Sound
the boss's sound and response is not like any other! i have tried every effects box out there in the last 8 yrs. and this one far exceeds any of them! the e-z tones are great and user friendly- i rate from 1-10 i give it an 11!
Features
the only features i wish it had was more midi-sounding instruments- like the "sax" sound which i use often-- but then again it would cost 4x's as much
Quality
it with stands alot of pounding on- i think it will last as long as i want it to
Value
it is a little steep at its face value- but when you get it home, you realize you would have paid anything for it!
Manufacturer Support
i have dealt with boss quite often in the past --they are very easy and knowledgeable when talking to them
The Wow Factor
the color gives it a rugged appeal-

"Boss GT6"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Just met a guitarist who had the same processor. We both went to the same conclusion, it's an amazing guitar processor. I bought mine when it was released, about 15 years ago. Lots of sub menus give you the possibility to create just about any sound you like. I had a few minor problems that I could easily fix. I had to replace the volume pot. I also interchanged input and output jacks with external send return that I don't need. It's probably me. I don't take the time to unplug my jacks. I would suggest that you do so at every session.

Musical Background:

I've been playing guitar for 53 years. I play in two bands. Home, jams, night clubs, events, etc.

Musical Style:

I play in two bands. Both do classic rock covers. At home, I'm more into fusion jazz-rock.

"GT-6: Operation Sound Great"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
I have had this for over a year and I still love it. I've used it for Christmas presentations and mainly use it for recording. Sound as awesome live as in the "studio"(I don't really play in a studio).
Sound
I run a acoustic Seagull C-6 witha L.R. Baggs soundhole humbucking pickup and it gets very decent sound through that(I haven't tested it but I think it would sound just plain awesome with a good electric guitar).
Features
Has tons of effects but not enough pedals to use them all. I obviusly didn't expect it to but I wish there was some way to toggle effects to different pedals.
Quality
I don't think you could drop this and get away with it(you just might get away with it)but it is made very well.
The Wow Factor
I was about to by about $200 worth of single pedals and I came across this. All the effects I was going to buy and so, so much more.

Musical Background:

I play in church and record at home

Musical Style:

Alternative, Rock, Bluegrass Fingerstyle and some others

BOSS'S STOMP BOX ARE MUCH BETTER THAN IT'S MULTI EFFECTS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sound
IT NEED A VERY GOOD AMP,AND WHEN YOU CHANGE YOUR GUITAR, AMPS ,PA ,THE SOUNDS CHANGES A LOT !!![I DID CHANGED THE OUTPUT SELECT, BUT IT'S REALLY NO GOOD !] DISTORTIONS ARE NOT SO GOOD, THE AMP MODELERS ARE NOT SO GOOD.EVEN WHEN YOU WANT TO GET A SIMPLE DRIVEN SOUND,YOU NEED TO SET THE EQ !! AFTER A LONG TIME SETTING ,THE SOUNDS CAN BE BETTER```
Features
SO MANY FEATURES IN IT , YOU CAN GET MOST THINGS ON IT .BUT IT'S "AUTO RIFF" REALLY REALLY SUCKS HARD !!! IT IS NO USE AT ALL !!!
Quality
MADE OF STEEL```
Value
THINK HARD BEFORE YOU BUY !!! A POD IS MUCH EASIER THAN THIS !!!
