Line 6 Spider II 112
Published on 11/21/04 at 15:00I bought this amp at Music Loft in Greensboro, i'd heard good things about it from reviews, so i bought it. 300 dollars.
It's the most powerful amp for 300 bucks i could find, so it's pretty loud. There's fourteen channels to chose from, and there's 4 programable presets(probably the best thing about the amp). it's got a tuner that works sometimes, and it's got some effects on it. The price made my pocket happy, and it's got a celestion speaker.
All the channels sound the same to me, if you mess with the eq. The different channels are supposed to mimic other brands of amps, but they sound nothing like them. the onboard tuner sucks. the eq isn't well balanced, and you have to play with...…

All the channels sound the same to me, if you mess with the eq. The different channels are supposed to mimic other brands of amps, but they sound nothing like them. the onboard tuner sucks. the eq isn't well balanced, and you have to play with it for awhile to get a partially good sound out of the amp, so it's kinda hit and miss. alltogether, the amp sounds fake to me. kinda like when you want some good cake, but you have to eat some 4 month old mush from a walmart kinda fake. you have to mess with the eq and drive so much for good sound, and i get pissed at the thing like every day, this is where the presets come in handy. on a lucky day, if you find a good setting, you can save it for later. i play in a church band, and it treats me pretty good. you can hear it over a drumset. the celestion speaker sounds aweful if the eq's not set right, and it's got a weird rumbling noise that really gets me mad. fake sounding
the construction's really good. very solid amp. haven't had any trouble with the construction.
This amp has a great pricetag, but it's not very good sounding. I wouldn't suggest buying it.

Published on 09/15/04 at 15:00I purchased the amp through Music 123, after hearing sound bytes on Line 6's web page. The purchase price was $299.99.
The clean sound is excellent. The "insane"
distortion sound is very good. The reverbs and delays sound great, but the delay is a hassel to adjust. The price is excellent.
I think the amp sounds artificial. The distorted sound closly resembles a Hot Rodded Marshall, but it lacks the warmth of actual tubes. It sounds electronic instead of natural. You dont have much control over the effects, they are either,
on or off, slow, medium or fast. I think it should come with a footswitch. Their footswitches range in price from $75-$399!
Which is more than I payed for the amp.

I think it is constructed well for the price. However, I recently purchased a Behringer Ultrabass BX1200 bass amp and its
construction is Much better than the Line 6 Spider II for about the same price.
The Line 6 Spider II 112 is a great amp for the price. I would highly recommend it for beginners and as a home practice amp to
anyone at any level.

Published on 08/04/04 at 15:00I purchased this amp at the Guitar Center in Little Rock, Arkansas. I was on a budget and wanted something I could gig with and not go broke.
Where to start? I like everything about this amp. The 12 inch Celestion speaker is loud as all hell and never gets distorted, no matter how high you crank the volume.
All of the amp models are great, you can dial right in to any sound that you want. You can play a praise and worship song at your church, play 50s and 60s rock to impress your Dad, get a nice bluesy-rock sound like Eric Clapton or Jimmy Page, even shred like Megadeth and Old Metallica on this baby.
I like the 7 effects built into the amp, eliminates the need for anything to be...…

I like the 7 effects built into the amp, eliminates the need for anything to be on the floor. You can get it all from this amp.
But my favorite thing about the amp are the four user programmable channels. You can create your own preset and store it on the channel. The Spider II even remembers the EQ setting!
I love being able to play a perfectly clean song for my girlfriend then jump right into thrash heaven to rock out with my band, then go into a killer lead sound for solos, then top it off with a little blues sound when I'm in the mood. All of that at the push of a button.
Did I mention the ease of this baby? Everything is right there infront of you, just spin the knobs and get what you want.
Also,the built in tuner is nice. It's not a chromatic tuner, but who really needs to downtune anyway?
I'm not too big on the insane setting, it just produces feedback and alot of noise for those nu-metal kids into the Slipknot/Mudvayne/Mushroomhead thing.
Also I wish the Chorus and Flanger were two seperate effects instead of one meshed together.
I've only had the amp for about two weeks, I've lugged around to a friend's house for band practice and I've gigged with it once.
So far it survives being transported without a scratch and it's loud enough to be heard in small bars and clubs.
For the money, you don't get anything better. The amp is loud, durable, and lets you create just the sound you want. You WILL NOT find a better amplifier for $300.00!

Line 6 Spider II 112
Published on 06/12/04 at 15:00Bought it on-line at american musical supply for $299. This is my first amp and it fit right into my budget.
I was looking for an amp with some effects and versatility. Also, I needed something that I could hear over my sons 50watt Marshall. This was it.
As advertised the tone is great, but even with 25 less watts, my sons Marshall seems to cut right through a little better during solos.
Construction and quality seem great so far.
Excellent amp at a great price. It's probably all I'll ever need.
