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.

Transistor
75w
small problem for the live connection
serves as the headphone output but cut the line hp
So I did a bypass for the sound of the HP at the same time
but I can not find exatement the sound of the amp av his hp to the output line

+ 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.

See site notices or other line 6

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.
