Line 6 Spider IV Line

Line 6, Inc. has launched the Spider IV, the company's latest line of modeling amplifiers for guitarists.

The new Spider IV amplifier line has five flexible combos and a head. Each of the four famplifiers, including the 75-, 120-, and 150-watt combos and the 150-watt head, feature over 500 presets, over 300 of which were hand-crafted by 50 guitarists, and almost 200 more that were inspired by famous guitar songs, according to Line 6.

The Spider IV amplifiers also come with 16 of the latest Line 6 amp models to date, as well as with 20 on-board Smart FX, a built-in 14-second Looper, and many more effects. The amp models, which were inspired by modern and vintage American, British and European guitar amplifiers, Line 6 says, are designed to give guitarists one-touch access to the next generation of Line 6 amp tone.

The on-board effects provide players with a palette of colors and textures. New pitch effects, including Smart Harmony and Pitch Glide, plus beautiful Delays, Echoes, Mods, Reverbs, Auto-Wah and more, can blend to create the perfect sonic landscapes. Up to four effects can be used simultaneously and all effects can be edited completely.

The 15-watt Spider IV combo features a collection of four amp models that all guitarists require in their collections, and six Smart FX (up to two effects simultaneously); the 30-watt Spider IV combo features a collection of 12 amp models and seven Smart FX (up to three effects simultaneously).

Each Spider IV amplifier can dramatically expand its sonic capabilities with the addition of a Line 6 foot controller, including FBV Shortboard MkII, FBV Express MkII and FBV2. These foot controllers are designed to deliver everything from wah-wah, pitch-shift and volume control to tap tempo, a chromatic tuner display and channel switching.
