Build your base tone with 10 AIRD preamps

From original BOSS models to classic recreations to even acoustic-focused sounds, the ME-90Bs preamp section delivers stunning tones in spades thanks to its cutting-edge AIRD (Augmented Impulse Response Dynamics) technology. Lastly, the ME-90Bs impressive Preamp section is rounded out by an equally powerful assortment of EQ knobs to twist and tweak your tone to taste.

Easy sound creation and flexible real-time control

Thanks to its knob-driven interface and stompbox-style layout, building configurations and tweaking tones with the BOSS ME-90B are a walk in the park.

The ME-90B’s eight footswitches operate smoothly and quietly, and its built-in expression pedal provides effortless real-time control over your effects. You can use the ME-90B’s Memory mode to call up complete patch setups using the footswitches, or you can use Manual for direct control of each effect category within a patch. The footswitches on this guitar multi-effects pedal include colored LEDs for at-a-glance identification. Moreover, you can set the LEDs to light in a fixed color for each mode.
