Boss announced the GX-10, an amp and effects processor for guitar and bass, on October 1, 2025. The multi-effects unit will be available at authorized US Boss retailers in October for $399.99¹.

The GX-10 carries the core sound engine and color touch display from the GX-100, which Boss released in 2022¹. It offers 23 guitar amps and nine bass amps, including high-gain X-Ultra, X-Optima and X-Titan types that Boss says were crafted with its latest modeling technologies, plus 170 effects, among them overdrives, distortions, modulation, delays, reverbs, dedicated bass effects and Boss classics such as Slow Gear, Octave and Slicer¹. Each memory supports up to two amps and 15 effects, and effect order and series or parallel routings can be changed by dragging blocks on the screen with a finger¹. Send/return jacks allow external pedals or an amp's effects loop to be placed in the signal flow¹.

Control comes from three footswitches with multiple control modes and user-assignable settings, alongside four parameter knobs and an integrated expression pedal¹. By default the pedal toggles between volume and wah and activates the tuner when pulled back, and it can be reassigned through the unit's assign matrix¹. A built-in USB-C audio interface handles recording to computers and mobile devices, and the GX-10 supports the optional Bluetooth Audio MIDI Dual Adaptor for wireless editing through the mobile version of the Boss Tone Studio app¹. Boss Tone Studio on Mac or Windows allows sound editing and loading of user speaker cab IRs, and provides access to Boss Tone Exchange for downloading sounds and sharing GX-10 Livesets; GX-100 Livesets are fully compatible with the GX-10¹.

A Bass Gear Magazine review published in December 2024, describing a unit it said it had received ahead of a late October 2024 public launch, listed these specifications²:
