Amp Models
Clean
Red LED -- Select this Amp Model and adjust the tone controls to get crisp, amazing clean tones, great warm jazz tones, and all the high-end shimmer you'll need with a generous amount of bottom end.
Glassy
Green LED -- Line 6 developed this Amp Model to emulate those late 60's and early 70's clean tones. It started off as an Amp Model based on* a 1973 Hiwatt Custom 100. Line 6 extended the tone control range and tightened up the low end.
Twang
Red LED -- This Amp Model draws on* Line 6's analysis of mid 60's Fender amps, including the blackface '65 Twin Reverb and blackface '64 Deluxe Reverb. Line 6 wanted an Amp Model that has that classic glassy high end tone, with some snap and bite.
Twin Twang
Green LED -- This Amp Model is based on* a number of vintage tweed amps. Line 6 evaluated a '53 Fender tweed Deluxe Reverb, '58 Fender tweed Bassman and a '60 Gibson Explorer to create a swingin' Rockabilly tone.
Blues
Red LED - Based on* a mix of a '65 Marshall JTM-45, a '58 Fender Bassman, a '63 Fender Vibroverb and a Supro, this Amp Model slides between gritty swamp-infected cleans to syrupy smooth, walloping drive tones.
Class A
Green LED -- This Amp Model is based on* a fawn Vox AC-30 amplifier with an updated and expanded tone control circuit. Line 6 wanted to capture that early British pop rock tone that the Beatles and the Stones are so well known for.
Crunch
Red LED -- This sound was crafted during Line 6's studies* of the '68 Marshall Plexi 50 Watt. This type of Marshall amp was used by a number of early metal bands. Crunch provides a wider range of tone control settings than the original Marshall amp had.
On Fire
Green LED -- This Amp Model is based on* a '68 Marshall Plexi 100 watt with a few added extras; The combination of a Variac and the jumped input channels creates that infamous brown sound.
Metal
Red LED -- This Amp Model is based on* the Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier. Use this Amp Model to get a tight and punchy, high gain Metal sound.
Spinal Puppet
Green LED -- This sound was created to be an aggressive high gain Amp Model with a unique Mid control that will sweep though an entire spectrum of tone on one knob. The Mid knob for this Amp Model changes the character of the distortion. When set to minimum, the distortion exhibits Fuzz pedal characteristics. When the Mid is set to noon, it mimics the creamy modern high gain amp tones. And when the Mid knob is turned up to max, it's very much reminiscent of that Class A sound.
Insane
Red LED -- This model is Line 6's "dialed in for shredding" version based on* the Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier red channel. It combines the intensity and impact of Metal Red, but delivers more midrange and teeth for that bone-crushing, brain piercing insane grind.
80s Solo
Green LED -- Line 6's goal with Insane was to provide you with as much input gain distortion as possible short of complete meltdown. You get an obscene helping of distortion, while still retaining tonal definition and character.
Effects
A great amp isn't the only part of a great guitar sound. With Smart Control FX, an exclusive Line 6 feature that automatically dials in different effect parameters, you spend more time playing and less time tweaking. Simply find the effect that you want, turn the knob to your desired intensity, and you're done. You can even use multiple effects at the same if you wanna get really crazy.
Effects Models (Up to 3 effects simultaneous):
-- Phaser
-- Chorus/Flanger
-- Tremolo
-- Sweep Echo
-- Tape Echo
-- Reverb
Ins & Outs
When you're playing with your band on stage just drag the Spider III on stage and crank it up. When it comes time to record, use the headphone/direct out and plug it straight into the mixing board for world-class POD 2.0 direct tone used in pro studios and stages everywhere! You can also use the same out with headphones for practicing in your bedroom. Want to play along with your favorite songs? Plug into the CD/MP3 input and you're good to go.

I believe this amp will keep my interest for a long time. It's a fun amp to mess around with.
Sound
Great sound. I received this amp for Christmas from my kids and it's pretty awesome due to the fact that the song presets contain a lot of the songs I play on a regular basis. I no longer have to waste time setting up my other amp to get the desired effect (if I can ever get it just right). I just push a button a few times and dial up the song tone. To my ear the preset songs tones are right on: Nothing Else Matters, Cat Scratch Fever, Money For Nothing, Sweet Child of Mine, etc. No need for stomp boxes with this amp. And this B***H is LOUD. If you are a pro guitar player, you probably would not appreciate this amp, but if your a amature/hobbyist who just likes to rock out every once and while without messing around with effects pedals and tone knobs, this amp is for you. Of course you can bypass the presets and set up the amp as you wish and I have no complaints on that front. All around versitile amp.
Features
No accesssories included. Very happy with all the features of this amp.
Ease of Use
There is a small learning curve with this product. The instruction manual is a joke, but after messing around with it for about an hour or so, it's easy to figure out. Also I would recommend visiting the Line6 web site to pick up more information about using this amp, esp. in the forums section.… read more
Quality
So far it appears to be a pretty solid & sturdy amp.
Value
Great bang for the buck.
