My 2 week experiment with the Boss GX-10 and the tone - it changed everything - my oh my... So is the Boss GX-10 the same as the GX-100? I looked close - really close! An in depth review with playing.

The GX-100 impressed me greatly at the time and so is the GX-10 a 'cut back' version of the GX-100? And does the hardware have the power with it's processor and memory to even offer anything like the GX-100? These are all questions that should be answered in ANY review and so I do just that - and show and answer a load more too.
Of course the GX-10 is superb value for money, but there are some things missing, like the Bluetooth option and that sort of thing. And can you really handle this powerful Boss GX-10 with just three switches when on-stage?
In this video review I show you the GX-10 unboxing, the inside of the unit and discuss the overall quality, I show the I/O at the back of the effects unit and pedal, I confirm the legal standards, I show the overall operation from above and close up - then move on to the software.
I do show the Tone Studio editor/librarian and connect to tone central to download some pre-sets or 'live sets' if you prefer. Lastly I cover the IR software and show it in use - although that is pretty basic.
The playing is really just an example of tone and there is so much more inside this effects processor or modeler as some call them.
I purchased the GX-10 with my own money and the review is entirely financed by me for your pleasure. The review is unbiased and in my opinion shows a good representation of what you get.
NOTE: I did not use ANY amplifier for the playing - it was all direct from the GX-10 from the stereo out... direct in to my recording desk.
I have spent considerable time creating this video entirely at my own expense. Its better than many other units out there for sure. Bought from Gear4music and not Andertons.
