Used Boss IR-2 Amp & Cabinet Guitar Effects Pedal

Mint, all original packaging, as new

Boasting 11 spot-on amplifier emulations and a robust IR section, the IR-2 Amp & Cabinet pedal is a full-featured amp simulator pedal the size of a standard BOSS overdrive box. From BOSS amp creations inspired by the Katana series to exacting emulations of history's most sought-after tube amps, the IR-2's 11 amplifier models each come paired with a custom-curated Celestion cabinet IR simulation. The IR-2 also sports a USB-C port for third-party IR loading and doubles as a guitar-specific audio interface for effortless recording. The pedal also features a mono/stereo loop for patching in effects, a headphone jack, and a concentric-knob control setup for an intuitive sound-sculpting workflow. Versatile enough to cover any sonic situation and compact enough to slot onto any pedalboard, the BOSS IR-2 is destined to become the centerpiece of your gigging or recording rig.

11 expertly emulated amplifiers

The IR-2's grand total of 11 amplifier models covers every sonic need you could imagine, ranging from spot-on emulations of classic tube amps to BOSS's custom creations. The IR-2 can even be configured to swap between two amp models (via the pedal switch or external footswitch) to instantly switch up your tone while onstage.

• Clean: a pure BOSS original, providing a full-range and natural-sounding tone for all your distortion-free activities.
• Twin: captures the tone of a legendary 2 x 12-inch combo, famous for its deep and colorful cleans.
• Tweed: ideal for fans of a rougher, rawer tone, modeled after a 4 x 10-inch combo from the 1950s.
• Diamond: beautifully emulates the chimey cleans and aggressive bite of the amp that defined the 1960s British invasion.
• Crunch: another BOSS original, instantly transforming your tone into a clear, hi-fi-sounding, dirt-laden punch.
• Brit: a super-sounding lead amplifier delivering the roaring sound of the mid-1960s' most iconic amplifier stack.
• Hi-gain: BOSS's own high-gain model with smooth and articulate dirt-drenched tones.
• Sldn: a flexible range of dirty tones inspired by a tube amp from the late 1980s.
• Brown: straight off the BOSS Katana series, a superb model for soaring and expressive lead tones.
• Modded: a BOSS original amp that takes you to the deepest depths of high-gain saturation.
• Rfier: re-creates the dual-rectified tone of the amp that's defined high-gain, heavy music for over three decades.

Celestion-powered IR Cabs
The IR-2's 11 amp models each come paired with a matching mic'd speaker cab IR emulation, custom curated to enhance the tonal authenticity of each amplifier. Prefer to craft your own amp/IR combinations? The IR-2 also includes a purpose-built IR loader app (accessible via the USB-C port) to pack the IR-2 full of your favorite third-party IRs.

No screens, no menus, no problem
Each amp is accessed by spinning a simple rotary switch, paired with concentric knobs for the 3-band EQ, Level, Gain, and Ambience control. Navigating the IR-2 feels more akin to dialing in your favorite overdrive pedal than a traditional amp-sim/IR pedal, making it a must-have for the guitarist who requires accurate tones in a compact, intuitive form factor.

Full of utility features
The IR-2 includes a mono/stereo loop to cleanly integrate modulation and time-based effects after the amplifier emulation section. Plug the IR-2 into your Mac/PC via the USB-C port to record guitar tones straight into your DAW, with a headphone jack for silent recording and practice. Hook up an external footswitch or configure the pedal switch to instantly swap between two amp/cab combos.
