OVERALL OPINION

2 years
+ All in one, the effects, weight, fishing
-The acute, no compression, to purchase the FBV Express
wha more, volume, tuning feet 105 euros at Thomann (pricey)
I have two tube amps musicman, peavey but line6 is so much lighter
price / quality super (look for the occasion)
know, the vox are not look bad either
The Series 3 is the same thing the presets av star
I do not know if it's worth
I tried the same av 2hp, same in height

Deja said. For my opinion on the note I put 8 in the material.

UTILIZATION

The use is quite good despite a poor volume settings of the different presets.
Indeed kan moving from a more metal to another or increase the volum dminue strong so you have to asses the volume hack for the personal to arrive get a sde k'on veut.ensuite the problem was the foot switch ki ac comes on sale. so there are 4 sounds personels Programmable But to return to a sound for a Chanon olbigé we go through a program's already ... I ais if you understand me but good. is enough if you enmetant voyezd e koi .. I mean I put so 6 for use.

SOUNDS

It is perfect for my style of emus ki is the old rock and metal ... I play an ac jackson dinky DKT. The sound of this amp is a ke I prefer the metal was removed aukel gain and put the reverb Finally, good try you will see it going very well for heavy solos asses ... there's no real ke deteste.sinon I can almost get a Octaver, just take a ls ki is insane bizzare of remove all the gain, turn up the volume and it's good .. Finally not exaggerate either a small gadget c lol.pour the sound I put 9 because kj'adore finally I do not want to talk about the effects because I do not use quasiement.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for a year and more than enough for its price a friend of mine uses a Marshall 100 watt lamp so I can not tell you the model but I do not see a big francheent diference.le RAPORT Kaliti price is right, ac back and I do it again but this choice for the 2212 spider for now I'm the biggest stage and 112 ca enough lol .. I put the overall score 8.

Nothing to add, everything has been said before.
It's all digital with the advantages and disadvantages ...
In terms of power, there is nothing to say ... the 75W are here and there.
In truth, it's more than enough to cover any drummer and play a little deaf in training.
Aside from a metalheads who wants to tear your ears, any other musicos will be content to repeat as much as for the stage (I've never needed to push beyond 6 ...) . In fact, when you make a big scene, you dub the sound with a good mic and it does.
Question connections, even when it is regrettable the lack of input / output effects loop, as there is no line out output other than the headphone output.
When the effects, personal I do not use ... they look clean, but very low level settings and not cumulative, which can cause bp to fans sound worked great (too ?..).

UTILIZATION

Simple configuration, standart. Gain, 3 band EQ, output level, reverb, master volume. RAS.
Do you get a good sound easy?
Matter of perspective. First, forget the factory settings, as always it is rather the stew. When the proposals for adjustments that can be found on the website, it is the same.
The sound is an interaction between your scratching, your amp and guitar that goes with ... then to each his meals.
Personally, I have not had to look far to find sounds that suit me.
For cons, the manual is worth a little browsing, there are "hidden" functions, boost and noise gate type (both are effective). Reading not take long, it's in French and it's clear.
Even bp cited above for the use of effects (regardless of settings and no accumulation possible)

SOUNDS

I play mostly rock, punk and ska, all 80 years influence (with a ladle ...) with a Start, a Les Paul copy super 80s (aria Custom Body for the connoisseur) and a semi-hollow Gretsch base. That the latter is that the amp a little hard to follow.
For the rest, of course, it is far, far from a good all-tube amp, but it's not the same price range and to use that I made (repeat 1 / weeks and a dozen dates per year) is nickel.
The variety of sounds that can be obtained (without using effects) is more than enough. For the record, I bluffed a more fundamentalist anti-digital ... (Ben Yeah, your good all-tube amp, once you've mixed on a digital console ...).
The reverb is not bad, but use with care, it can be invasive and fast fuck you the brothel.

What are the sounds you prefer, you hate?
I prefer the sounds that I made and I hate the sounds of the factory (see above)

OVERALL OPINION

I have two years. I bought used for less than € 200 and at that price, it does. No bp for technical, so strong / fairly good reliability.
Of course, it's not pro material, but they're not alone I am not pro.
I would not stay on the qualities and faults of the beast, I said everything above.
on the other hand, Line 6 must admit that abuse on the price of accessories. Given the variety of possible sounds, memorized the four settings are quickly used and if you want more, you have to buy a pedal that alone is worth as much, see more expensive than the amp ... damage.
I played a lot of amp before this one, I do not enjoy myself to the list and compare. But what is certain is that this amp is to my mind far above the most recent shit produced by Marshall (the Valvestate for example, that are unspeakable and stews that are selling that because there Marshall scored above ...).
But hey, like all the stuff music, should try based on their game and make his own idea.
Last detail, Line 6 released a few months Version 3 with 400 factory settings additional memory ... it was really not worth considering the quality of the factory sounds in general. Given the price difference is better to buy a spider 2 used a 3, which ultimately has the factory sounds and more.
Hoping to have advanced the schmilblick, more.

UTILIZATION

Configuration relatively simple if you read the manual (which I do after two years and have things Discoveries ...)

This gives her the wrong 5 min APRS have dballe but nevertheless quickly exploitable trs.

The manual must be in English menfin insurmountable.

I do not put that on February 2 7 a problem because:

Rather not compatible with other pedals that wahwah and comp.
And means pedals with loops (JamMan or RC-20):

The effect Intgr as the amp, the loop is treated as the direct signal can not play on light or contrast distortion pedals without effect (which I rpeter sounds average this amp)

SOUNDS

The clean sound is clear, the distortion is distortion ...

He does what is asked of him with a good amp sonnorits transistor.

His cot is versatile in its biggest strength.
We do everything with and it is done correctly, which is perfect for beginners who are looking or anyone allergic to other pedals and son lying around ...

Of course, the sound is below a config effects + tube amp high-end, but for the price is more than correct.

OVERALL OPINION

This amp has accompanied me almost 4 years, I started with and he rarely (except pedals in loops).

Trs good price quality ratio (a gnral seems in line 6, see my other review).

I revandu a friend, now I play a Blues Deluxe (EC FOOT!)

I do it again without hsitation this choice, but to have the lamp version jou rcement output of this amp, I think I dpenserai a little more, a is carrment instantly.

- 75 watts
- Digital solid state
- 7 effects, three simultaneous
- 12 amp models
- Built in tuner
- 4 storable channels
- 1x12 Celestion speaker (Line 6 designed)


UTILIZATION

Not the greatest. On one hand you have some fun features. 12 different amp models, two each of clean, twang, blues, crunch, metal, and insane. You can save custom setting for 4 of these. The footswitch that comes with the amp scrolls through settings, so it can be a pain for live use – You constantly have to remember where you are in the chain. You can upgrade to a 4 button footswitch, but that’s more money you’re paying.
7 effects total, but you can only run 3 at once. You can tap in tempo, but not by footswitch.
My biggest gripewith this amp is reliability. About year or so in, mine failed completely. If you’re within range of a competent tech, it’s possible to bring back to life, but will cost you more than the amplifier in many cases.


SOUNDS

And again, not great. Yes there are a full 12 different amp models. But none of them sound very good. It’s a basic modeling amp, but don’t expect 12 high quality options to chose from. Definitely zero playing response. The speaker isn’t the greatest, it really shouldn’t have the Celestion name on it, but is a selling point for Line 6. The effects are ok as a basic introduction, but nothing to write home about.
Another factor to note is that modeling amps don’t tend to take dirt pedals very well, you’ll usually end up with a handful of fizzy mush. Don’t even think about cranking that volume unless you’re looking for seriously ugly solid state clipping.


OVERALL OPINION

I would stay away from this one. Shoddy reliability, questionable tone, and usability concerns put the Spider 2 pretty low on my list. They could work pretty well for beginners who are just looking to familiarize themselves with different types of tone and effects. But in that camp I’d definitely recommend the Peavey Vypyr or Vox VT series. All in all, I was not impressed in the slightest, and will not be recommending this amp.

UTILIZATION

Easy to use if you read the user's manual. It's what I did after two years of use and I discovered features I had never used.

You won't get THE right sound after only five minutes, but will be able to start using it very quickly.

I only give a 7 because of two problems:

It isn't compatible with effect pedals except for wah and compressor.
It's not easy to use with looper pedals like the Jamman or the RC-20:

the effect is integrated into the amp and the loop is processed just like the direct signal, so it's not possible to play a distortion sound over a clean sound, and vice versa, without adding an effects pedal.


SOUNDS

The amp does what you'd expect from it, delivering a good solid-state amp sound.

Versatility is its main advantage.
It does everything well, which is perfect for beginners or someone who doesn't like stomp boxes with cables all over the place...

The sound isn't quite that of a setup made up of high-grade effects + all-tube amp, but the result is quite good considering the price.


OVERALL OPINION

I used this amp almost four years. It was my first amp and it rarely disappointed me (except with looper stomp boxes).

Very good value for money (as usual with Line6 products).

I sold it again to a friend of mine. Now, I play a Blues Deluxe (AWESOME!!!).

I wouldn't hesitate to choose it again, even though I would buy the tube version: I tried it out and it's a bit more expensive but really worth it!
