Boss Nextone Magazine Reviews
The analog approach from roland is miles better than the all digital amps in my view.
Boss nextone magazine reviews. Not a heavy metal amp i d say. The default clean sound is very pleasing with a sweet treble and a snappy bass that s full and rounded quite fender ish in character and not too dissimilar to a silverface deluxe. Recently boss has given us the nextone amps. The nextone excels at classic amp tones from clean to somewhat overdriven.
But once david gilmour took over they evolved into a stadium rock band and began crafting extravagant concept albums. Taken on its own the nextone is a great idea however it faces stiff competition including ironically boss s own katana range which may not have the power amp control but has quite a few tricks of its own. This new range draws on roland s blues cubes and promises to deliver both the sound and the playing feel of a real valve amp. Watch boss product demo videos.
When pink floyd started out in the psychedelic mid 1960s they were playing clubs led by syd barrett on guitar. The flagship nextone artist features 80 watts of power while the nextone stage features 40 watts of power and a slightly more streamlined cabinet. If you can remember there was a time before boss release the katana amplifiers where roland s boss parent company biggest amp line was the cube series. Both amps come equipped with a custom 12 inch speaker.
The nextone is electrically very quiet with practically zero hiss and hum making it an ideal partner for guitarists who spend a lot of time in the studio.
