OVERALL OPINION

About 6 months

I had other amps

Versatile, powerful, supports many pedals with fine adjustments I put a chorus (Danelectro cool cat), a Cry Baby wah Jen super, a compressor Marschall and especially a Marshall Jackhammer JH1 distortion, overdrive, which completely changes the sound clean and saturated for a boost in its nickel or using the high compression of the pedal it sublimates the beast that is not the same amp, board buy this pedal the amp supports entirely of Moreover contrary to some opinions, but refining the settings. I love its power, low unlike my big Hughes and Kettner, design, ideal for my weight rpeter Sunday. I hate the built-in effects that I never use but it is not at all what motivated my purchase I pedals to solve this problem, only 4 sounds memorized but too little pedal! For 100 € but happiness.

I 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 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.

I 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.

I 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 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!

Bought 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.

Guitar Center. Plymouth Meeting, PA

It's very loud and a lot of fun to play around with. Tons of effects.

Both the Metal and one of the Insane amp models are really good for thrashing.

I think I'm in the minority here, but this amp has too much and not enough all at the same time.

It has 12 amp models and none of them really sound like the amp they're trying to emulate. Plus there is no pure, clean channel. Everything has to start at an amp model and go from there.



I only had it for about a week (Thanks for the return policy, Guitar Center), but it seemed durable enough.

At this level ($300) Line 6 has manufactured more of a toy than a piece of equipment.

Purchased from Peeler Music in Toledo, OH for $299+tax

Like the built in amp models - just one turn of the knob gets you a variety of sounds.

Only wish is that they made the same amp with a 15" speaker, to handle dropped tunings.

Construction and quality seem good (have had the amp for 1 month now, that's about 60 hours of actual playing time). But only time will tell. Every other "good amp" I have owned has eventually been shaken to pieces (literally).

I play Ibanez guitars (RG and S models) with .13 to .60 guage strings tuned down to ADGCEA, and was having trouble finding, for under $300, a 75-100 watt live practice amp that sounded decent at high volumes with the low frequencies. I tried amps under $350 from Crate, Peavey, Randall, Marshall, Fender and Line6. The Spider II 112 sounded best (note: don't confuse this with the 50 watt Spider 112 - this is the 75 watt Spider II 112). It's still not great at keeping a tight bottom-end, but it will suffice. What I need is this amp with a 15" speaker! Maybe someday...

Long and McQuade for $400 (canadian) it was toss up between it and the $485 dollar marshall mg50 dfx.

The quality for the price can't be beat. The amp has tons of power, and if your not playing outdoors in front of 1000 people then it has more than ample power for gigs. Harmonics for a non-tube amp were definetly above average. Versatility is this amp's middle name; it's packed with 12 amp models and has 7 effects that you'll actually use. You can have up to 3 effects at once without completely losing note values in all the frequency blending. The amp also integrates an octaver pedal into the insane amp model, so basically you have an enitre effects board minus wah (which you can get if you buy the optional foot controller). The factory presets made by Evanescence and Slipknot are a nice touch for those who haven't done alot of knob twisting in the past and don't know where to start. Any guitarist could find something they love about this amp, but this amp is best for guitarists on a budget that need power and alot of different sounds, and dont want to buy 5 different amps to get it.

One of the twang models (green LED) doesn't like high output humbuckers. Notes break up and bend and vibratos become fast and spastic. The knobs seem a little flimsy at first but they wont come off. tuner is pain to drop tune with. Other than that no complaints

Built like a beast. I've dropped mine twice and nothing's happened to it.

If your a guitarist of any persuasion with not so much money, that needs a good gigging amp, buy it.

Local sam ash store for $299. Got a free guitar because it went over $300 with tax, but ut sux.

Mostly everything. A ll of the amp models rock except one of the Twangs and one of the Blues.Insane is just as it is named; insane.one of the blues models is actually very good for heavy metal soloing. These are my channels, just to show you the versatality.
A= (clean model #2)perfect clean tone (took lot of eq twisting to find i)
B= (Blues model #2)solo channel (turn the drive boost, which rocks, on or off for metal/clean soloing)
C= (metal model #1 w/no bass)new age grunge type of stuff, like Queens of the stoneage, who by the way rock
D= Insane model #2 w/no mid)total all-out thrash bottom end sh*t


The chorus/flanger is a little wierd and the cleaner channels always sound louder than the overdriven, but Channel Volume takes care of that. The onboard tuner sucks but no one cares.

Amazing. It makes my sh*tty cable sound awesome. the knobs act wierd, but will never fall off.

Just the modoling tecnology, if put on a multi effect pedal would sell for $200. Just pay an extra hundred for 75 watts, and it sounds louder than that.

This amp sounds rvle transistor amp lamps is an extra ordinary !!!!!! A little gem of 75 watts, which here must ds his "Mtal" and "Insane!" ! There is an otion or pedals with the APRS FVB2 there is FVB4 with what you can change patches fun !!!!!

UTILIZATION

The configuration has extra t are simple for beginners in ki-inch scratch it better!
The manual is clear but mank Kelker stuff!

SOUNDS

It should be a particulirement zik my style (rock mtal ...)
I play this amp with a CORT G260 (Seymour Duncan ...)

OVERALL OPINION

I can not lutilisz of GST
This amp is a real gem vs I advise it dchire all prices and competition with MARSHALL
Ss any exprience with this choice I would do

Modlisation amplifier, which sends 75watts.
It possde an electric Detachable connection cable.
A jack for an instrument (or may be something else, I did not test)
1 MIDI in order to connect the pdalier FBV2 that comes with the can (with the lead RJB45). We should be able to get something else (I'd have to test ...).
The rglages are a bewildering simplicity because everything is prmach. Moreover, each potentiomtre is lined with a system that diode which lets you know your o you (if you become deaf because of your 75 watts ...)
It lacks even when one enters the in between and a second instrument for ... would not have a cot in a much more expensive amp modlisation ....( n ' is not it Mr. Line 6!)

UTILIZATION

The manual is clear and lightweight. Rfractaires the culture or the Torah will be due only to find neither drawing nor humor ... but as they opened gnralement no records, it does not matter !
The sound is good because everything comes IMMEDIATE much of this amp. APRS it takes a little fun for'll find the sound that suits your song or style. But I really feel that anything is possible with this machine.

SOUNDS

I think this type of amp should all styles of music. I practice every day with my imitation of Japanese Start, a lot of guys with guitars precision of the test and were impressed t ...
He is, among others, for rptitions with a band playing all-fusion of hard through reggae and bossa-and it has not yet found the limits. It spits out a max in all registers!

OVERALL OPINION

It's been a few weeks that I used Manir intensive and I can not get enough.
Ormis gaps in the signal that I CHARACTERISTICS I prfr of the cube 30 Roland (not enough power) and the Behringer equivalent (too big and not trust .. .).
Do dplaise lovers of pure sound I hear dj lamp with sarcasm and sees dgoutte mine, I adopt the modern me ... especially since it is cheaper and a priori maintenance free (of course, have to see how it ages).

It's a transistor amp but it has a sound that is almost a tube sound!
It is a 75 Watt
It is very simple light!
There bcp effect there are 1 or 2 ki is nothing but fun c!

UTILIZATION

You turn a little tt buttons you program your tone has ac bcd and easily change your footswitch you!!

For almost a c a a lamp!

The manual is missing a few things!

SOUNDS

I myself should I play a Squier Start over ac afinity and compared to my old kills!

OVERALL OPINION

Raport kills its quality price!!
I would do this choice !!!!!!!!!!

Hi all, if my DSOL franais seems diffrent of VTRE, but I just Qubec Canada.

-12 Model of a clean amp insane (by way of distortion that hosille between blues and mtal)
- 7 effect (up to three at the same time) delay phaser chorus and other ...
- Channel 4 to record your sounds
- Speaker celestion 12-inch dveloppe 75 watt celestion as one of the best speaker company in the world
- Noon to foot controller connection

UTILIZATION

The amp is in use is very simple and I did not have a manual to help me so ... plutt simple. adjusting the TRS's simple. I must admit that against the Insane Red is a complte innutilit ... fun though.

SOUNDS

The sound of this amp is gnial. The sound is clear and powerful. Distortion Has Designed to dcoll the tile in your home. For those who say that this amp does not have a good clean channel, I like to point out that since the amp is a transistor, no company has managed to make a clean are excellent. Than the Line 6 is more than Raisson.

I should also put a BMOL THIS AMP IS GREAT TO PLAY AT HOME BUT IT IS NOT ENOUGH TO PLAY WITH A DRUM.

For cons, I do not want to remove the sound is excellent when properly used (- 6 on the master)

OVERALL OPINION

I have not used this amp trs long. I plutt buy the spider II 212 which gives me much more power. Again, exactly the same amp, which shows you that I love the sound of this amp.

The price of this amp is amazing for the performance he gives. Do not buy anything for a marchal mg50dfx because it grows a little less, and is not as preset.

75watt amplifier transistors etc etc ... Forcment for the price we would have no lights ... 75watts transistors, ca not grow that much.

UTILIZATION

Using fairly instinctive, not really need the manual say anything on it.

SOUNDS

I tried it some time by going to the curiosities reprage (for a friend who was looking for an amp transistors), I frankly does not believe. I tried it with a Jagmaster (Squier) and an epiphone demicaisse (the scratching of my friend) and the clean did not convince me as ca (I REALLY do not see the diffrence with my REGR Frontman and lousy t R 15, and it's not because of not knowing anything else!).
Saturation and the effects, let's talk, there are quite a few but they are mostly well grimey ... The delays are cut with a knife, the crunch dgoulinent across the disto is not in gnrale prcise (ds ca drool we do a deal ...).

In short, for this price and this budget, I prfere largely Transtube Peavey Studio Pro 112, 30-40 euros cheaper, but its effects but with a rather pretty clean and very nice saturation is quite prcise (channel lead very well).

OVERALL OPINION

Clean sound effects okay but not convincing at all, disto slobbery.

Is much better for the same price (ie low-end Marshalls, Peavey Transtube studio pro 112, etc etc).

For more information, visit

UTILIZATION

Trs quickly found the sound you want, you can enable / disable the effects, their intensity rgler everything trs trs easily and quickly.

SOUNDS

I play a little bit of everything and I can say that this amp is just what I needed kil. Both clean that saturated the quality is to go. There's still a trs weird, insane red channel, we say a grinder or a combine harvester, but rest assured, there are other channels of nombruex trs satisfactory.

OVERALL OPINION

I think for the price somewhat affordable, one can have a good quality amp trs with a large palette of sound.
The footswitch is mtal, a sign of strength.
75 watt c enough to play at home and RPET.
Before I had a frontman 15 r in fender, I can tell you that is has nothing to do!!

All adj t said, I think ...

UTILIZATION

Modlisation amp, 4 channel, rverb, volume gnral ..
then to find a good sound ... well, well, in fact, we must dig a little
the clean type of ultra saturated slipknot, is a relatively easy
APRS for the crunch, c not easy to find something beautiful ... but using a clear vector gain and the volume of the channel thoroughly, you can find sounds trs INTERESTED
we must dig a little ...
- 2 because there is no effects loop

SOUNDS

I think this amp does not fit all types of music
the cleans are pretty nice, the crunch, too, are impressive and saturated
but the sounds are quite saturated marshall type away ... shame ...
has not made the same as a pod, especially for simulations jcm 800
-1 For the marshall, but becaufe the 9 sounds are really good

OVERALL OPINION

So we can say that the numrique is shit, is that the dynamic food, blabla
I think we must relativize
for that price, NO amp does not offer such power and such a sound versatilis
Obviously, this is not a mesa twin reverb + a + a JCM800 ....
must be srieux
sr well, it's not at all lamps
nanmoins, and I know I will do the worshipers of rler rectifires and other Triax, I find this amp excellent
Every time I play on his amp, I find fun
scne on, he spits pretty good
a point where the saturation should be lower due to inintelligibilit lol
not as dynamic an amp lamps, of course, but the limit to 350, not really a critic c
dcidment, -2 for the loop ... shame, Mr. line6

Tt already said by other reviews
remember that there are effects (flanger, delay, echo, phaser ....) but not chosen the best to my taste except for the delay and reverb

UTILIZATION

There has not really be ing for the type of the DSIR are presets and sounds are clean ..... but beware BMOL, read below

SOUNDS

Here the sound is good for beginners who like mostly metal. is not clear on top, blues / crunch make us laugh, and only the distortion is correct, new metal grain type (although there are several settings).
If you are a beginner and are looking for a sound so powerful and versatile sound without looking is your ultimate machine. if you are a bit demanding and you have already jou on good bxs did not even try: Looks like SORT OF SOUND MIXER FOR FAR TOO BENO Benasso ;;;;; SYNTHETIC

OVERALL OPINION

Used for a year. fine at first, now that I begin to be initi I have other prferences.

Amp modeling, 75W, comes with a footswitch. It can record sounds personal 4 (selectable with footswitch, with volume CHANNELS indpendants). There are 6 DIFFERENT MODELS sound with 2 channels each).
Forcment amp modlisations, aa lot of functions and effects (which we'll talk about the quality ...) Note the prsence a tuner gadget that goes very useful from time to time!
I put 9 because he is thinks he has a lot of effects and sounds Different.

UTILIZATION

Yes, it is used well, is not much bored, you press a button, there is a type of sound, and we can play. sounds are recorded easily personal effects are not very complicated either, at least nothing unusual until the ... The manual reads well, but made good by the accsa the tuner and the ultra-saturation, it is the only to praise the quality of sound (supposedly from the amp legends! link parent bouaif what!)
I find that the Bass, middle and trebble contribute nothing transcendent either, it's pretty lightweight.
I put 8 because it is a sound easy, but "good" is exaggerated.

SOUNDS

Sound. While there are many styles DIFFERENT, but the problem is that the cot numrique feels good, sounds flat trs. It is a bit of his hunger even if it is satisfied even when they can play a little bit of everything on this amp. It is like a résumé: It offers a lot of sounds, but not good quality trs.
Note that saturation can be quite flat with a grain (or plutt a non-grain) should be suitable for particular mtalleux.
I play with a Les Paul Custom (Epiphone an Gib .... one) and even when I made good clean sound with chorus and reverb on my pickup.
I put 6 because it's really like his numrique, to spoil the fun of the range offers.

Here, I add a comment that applies even when the sentence: The saturation is a very specially the default, I think, to be gobbled up by compltement other instruments, as a group. A good clear sound, hop, move the saturation (even strong) and there hear me, you really have to rev high ... I do not know ... it's weird, no EHJV is nice but not send it ca ... 5 go!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year. I am happy but as far the sound seems to me less and less natural and tickles me. I plutt rock cool and I even spend a fender champion prt 300DSP (a 30W transistor and cheaper) because the clear sound particulirement am interested. I think a good pedals can easily catch up with a default of saturation. on the other hand I saw a notice saying that 75W is not enough to cover a battery, then I Exceeds than a quarter of the volume in RPET and a concert if ca back through a mixer and speakers , there is no problem. I have used live before 300 people and had enough potatoes to add sound throughout the room (provided you do not forget to mount the intermediate volume, the pellet Raaah ...).
I put 7 because it is good in its class amp modlisations button - everything, but I think we can easily find better for the right price, once you know the sound that one wants.

Modeling amp
75W (we ship a lot for the 75W anyway)
A headphone jack, pedal jack and
For rglage see other opinions ...

UTILIZATION

The amp modeling is always a very complicated to be addressed when finally even when you want a specific sound vraimen!
The sound is good I should say a hard working stream, but you get there
the manual is very interressan because there are very nice feature of ptites for Lampl

SOUNDS

Since I play metal I agree ... be well I jou on marshall and I do not know but when I go home I'm happy to find my line6
I play it with a ptite lts ESP F-50!
The crystal-clear I ptits working stream with cool effects such as chorus and delay gives ca great! otherwise you just get the big well nag metal
I especially ser sonorist "clean" "crunch" "metal" "insane" the "blues" and "twang" jy never touch ....

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 5 months
I love its power, its looks, its light is that when you say lallume a christmas tree ^ ^
nivo look nothing negative to say ...
I bought this amp eyes closed test or never even seen ... lai I had occasion in 250 and jne'm really not disappointed
For that price I do it again although this choice anything 1week after washing bought a line6 212 (2x75W) was 300 occasion I preferred to put 50 + for 2x more powerful

It is a 75watt transistor and rev it sounds good.
for power I can bury a drum by keeping the 3 / 4 of pulsating ca
it 4 channels, 4 for eq, reverb delay, tap echo, sweep echo, chorus, phaser, tremolo, noise gate, and 12 types of amp modeling
The buttons are sensitive and trs prcis
rglage excellent
the only effect of an insane BMOL awful (Jamis use) but one of 12 it's a good average

UTILIZATION

It Yadji memory of each amp modeling to beginners so you get a perfect and are ap es `` can CRER are clean are
unnecessary manual

SOUNDS

I play every style of music and each should be the Suel BMOL it can have is the lack of acoustic simulation. Chu an inch in his exper g asser not compare to me it sounds a wonderful

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 6 months had a problem Jamia dj
trs low price for all he has indeed I sought a more powerful amplifier and 60 watt min ($ 360 Cdn) + taxes I found it full of new and effective

I recommend anyone who wants a good amp investire

Has good technique prcdemment trait, so I will share my good impressions.

I bought this amp for two reasons: the sound, and rglages.
The multitude of effects and other prenregistrs simulating marchemals mesa (I see some smiles ..) can have fun with DIFFERENT style. As an amateur has no control over effects and Co. (PDAL I play ss or anything except my Washburn, my jack and my line 6), Systm is aprciable! However, it must admit that some are far from what they Fidler ventent to be but ...

What I ESG with this amp, it's just his power too much to play at either (though the sound is right down the volume), but not enough to play in BPS.

In all cases, the price is quite motivating for nine not hsiter marchemal between poor hand and this jewel of CEZ Line 6.

I did actually send you a board: get your own opinion.

ps: test your instrument, the diffrence in sound that can be dcouler cider!

UTILIZATION

Easy!

OVERALL OPINION

I will not change this amp for a large caliber (mesa ...) but we change the CATEGORY

It's a modern amp, new generation, there is no lamp, everything is digital. It looks like a gadget.
Power: 75 W
It's still powerful enough to scare everyone or fun eardrums.

UTILIZATION

The configuration seemed bizarre but ultimately it's very logical, 4 programmable channels, more if we provide the pedalboard: 9 of its banks, 4 channels, 36 sounds.
The sounds of factory, it must be said, are very cold but fiddling with it all, we arrive at something remarkable, and I am not exaggerating.
The manual is quite clear, it is useful because there are many features in this amp.

SOUNDS

It is perfect for my style of music, jazz, blues, funk, experimental, unclassifiable. In fact I am based in jazz, saxophonist and guitarist for fun.
I play a Gibson Nighthawk Standard, three microphones.
The terms clean, twang, blues, crunch, metal, insane do not mean anything (maybe insane is representative channel, a channel is pretty poor and surprising).
I use blues, crunch and clean, clear enough for sounds fairly drooling at times, good dynamics. My favorite channel is called metal is the most versatile in my opinion, I go from jazz to metal (green) without problems, is the first time that my guitar sounds so aggressive, high saturation, c ' is the best among all channels. Avoid becoming too gain because it gets annoying to strength, I'm not a hard rocker.
The effects should be used only occasionally.
For me, everything seems to be used, it falls quickly in the cold is not a worry, it's part of the music.
I will find other settings over time, there is plenty to do.

OVERALL OPINION

I just buy it.
I like the metal channel (green) is the most versatile in my opinion, I could be wrong, sounds great blues with this channel, playing with the knobs on the guitar, its jazz hot enough (surprising right?) .
I do not like connections, no exit line, no effects loop, built-in effects can be very cold and overbearing.
I tried the Vox modeling, they are well but it was too aggressive, footwitch not supplied.
The new Marshall with built-in effects, very good, one of my students has one.
Hughes & Kettner Edition Blue 60 R's my amp for 2 years (excellent amp but conceding more than my fantasies).
The quality / price is right.
I do not know if I would do this choice, but given the price I think it was a good choice.
My next purchase will be the pedalboard line6, in the meantime I will try this so-called gadget on stage, he will collect more than the H & K, I do not know, we'll see.

Caution: As with any line 6, we are dealing with the DIGITAL!

* Power 75 watts, which boosts good, perfect and even repeated small playable scene
* A single input jack and a headphone jack
* Basic settings (low, medium, high) but also has effects extravagant and rather good quality: Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Tremollo, Delay, Tape Echo, Sweep Echo, and Reverb course. It's a modeling amp, so 12 types of sounds, 2 clear, 2 twang, 2 blues, 2 crunch, 2 metal and 2 insane. In short: The paradise of the guitarist who wants to mumuse pleiiin with sound

UTILIZATION

* Configutations very simple and instinctive, more sounds are pre-programmed, so no hassle to adapt or get the 'correct', line 6 has already done for you. Well he must still admit that some factory settings are poor, you will need to retype some (especially if you buy later the FBV shortboard)

SOUNDS

* I played for two years on, the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rage against the machine's, the Nine Inch Nails ... Finally sounds and effects rather versatile, and although the sound was not exactly the same, it was a very good adaptation. So it is suitable for all types of music, but I believe it best to use metal or hard rock (even if the insane second effect is very ugly.) Proof of this is: Slipknot and Evanescence has helped create the factory sounds Spider II! And other sounds are available on the Shortboard.
* I play it with a Fender Stratocaster, it goes very well, but with two double coils as it passes very well.
* Very good sound in general, powerful and versatile. Well, you have to like digital sound and much work to find his own sound. The amps are sometimes poor and the digital sound a little dull. The sound when the amp is connected to sound really awful, hollow and very different setting than had been recorded on the amp.

OVERALL OPINION

I use this amp for about two years, and I really was impressed by its versatility and incredible number of features and sounds. I find the prices very affordable for what it is, knowing all the resources of this amp, I almost want to say that Line 6 is a scam by selling a low price. I never had to regret that choice, and I highly recommend this amp sounds fans and power at an affordable price.
