    Your Bass Rig, Now Pocket-Sized


    Let’s be honest, lugging a monolithic bass rig to a jam session or a small gig feels like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut. You’ve got the tone, sure, but your spine is screaming for mercy. The Boss GX-1B is the antidote to the amp-hauling blues. This isn't just a pedal; it's a sonic chameleon, a creative powerhouse that crams decades of legendary BOSS bass tone into a box so small it'll fit in your gig bag's front pocket. Whether you're a seasoned pro needing a fly-rig or a bedroom bassist ready to explore, this little beast delivers world-class sound without the chiropractic bills.

    The Swiss Army Knife of Slap and Pop


    Tired of tap-dancing on a dozen different pedals just to get through one song? The GX-1B was built to streamline your signal chain and unleash your creativity, solving the eternal bassist's problem of wanting infinite tones in a finite space.


         A Universe of Tone: With 16 stunningly realistic AIRD amplifiers and over 130 classic BOSS effects at your command, you can dial in anything. Go from the warm, pillowy thump of a vintage tube amp to the aggressive, metallic grind of a modern stack, and then slather it in iconic chorus, delay, or a filthy fuzz. Your sonic playground just got a whole lot bigger.


         Build Sounds at Ludicrous Speed: Forget menu-diving until your eyes glaze over. The brilliant color display and intuitive effect buttons make crafting your sound a breeze. Better yet, the new Gear Suite feature lets you instantly recall professionally tuned settings for any amp or effect with the simple turn of a knob. It’s like having a world-class roadie living inside your pedal.


         Practice, Play, Produce: This is more than a pedalboard; it's your all-in-one creative partner. Jam along with tracks from your phone via Bluetooth, record directly to your computer over USB-C, or plug in your headphones for silent practice that still sounds massive. The GX-1B flows seamlessly from your bedroom to the stage to the studio.

    Pro Power, Pint-Sized Package


    Don't let the compact size fool you. This processor is packed with features designed for the serious player.


         Total Tonal Freedom: Craft your dream rig with up to eight simultaneous effect blocks. Tweak, reorder, and save your creations to one of 99 user memory slots, ready for instant recall.


         Command and Control: The three onboard footswitches and built-in expression pedal are completely assignable, giving you real-time control over your sound.


         Power Up Anywhere: The GX-1B gives you ultimate flexibility with three power options. Run it on AA batteries, a standard AC adaptor, or get power directly from a computer's USB port.

    Stop Hauling, Start Playing


    Your tone shouldn't be limited by the size of your car or the strength of your back. The Boss GX-1B delivers uncompromising, professional-grade bass sound in a package that goes anywhere and does everything. Add this ultra-portable powerhouse to your setup and unlock a world of creative freedom.
