    This solid state guitar modeling amp is a nice combo that packs a lot of features into one package. There is the standard instrument cable 1/4" input. There are an insane amount of effects on this amp, and they can all be controlled by programming combinations into the amp itself. It's impressive how many possibilities there are.

    UTILIZATION

    To get started with this amp is pretty simple. Plugging in and playing is the way to go. Gigging is a little trickier if you want to be able to switch to other effects. You have to program the custom settings onto the amp so that you can use the switch. There's a limit to how many you can use through the switch though, so trying a new effect on every song is a pretty daunting task. However, since that's not really a major problem for most players, it shouldn't be an issue. Getting a good sound is a relative term; some people like digital amps, some don't (I personally don't prefer them over tube amps). However, if it's your thing, it's not hard to get a good sound. If you have trouble the manual explains it. Those who aren't used to such enormous amounts of effects might have a hard time with it at first but it shouldn't be too much trouble for anybody to figure out, as long as they know what they want to do.

    SOUNDS

    I can't say this is an amp that I enjoy using very much. Though it's got tons of features, it focuses more on quantity than quality. None of the distorted settings sound that great in my opinion. The "blues" tones just don't feel genuine enough to be bluesy, and the heavier tones are rather thin. The clean tones don't really give you the grit and power that a Fender Twin or a Marshall would. I used it in a rock ensemble and I had a hard time getting a nice, clean bluesy tone that would resemble Stevie Ray Vaughn (we were covering "Pride and Joy"). I fared better with Joe Satriani's "Surfing with the Alien" tone, although that too was kind of pale in comparison to his tone. The effects, by and large, are weak as well. The fact that there is so much variety with one amp means that you have less specific control of each effect. Plus, some of them just don't sound good at all. As far as digital amps go, you could do worse, but it's still not worth getting yourself into.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've used this on and off in the rock ensemble for a year. I don't really like the tones you get, or the quality of the effects. The versatility of the amp is all it really has going for it other than sheer power (it does get REALLY LOUD!). I tried other Line 6 models but didn't really see much of a difference. I think it's a little bit too expensive for what it is; the Vox Valvetronix, while no champion itself, sounds much better and is far cheaper than this (or at least it was when I got it). I wouldn't buy this again, ever.

    Line 6 is a money making outfit. They have successfully taken over the amp modeling world. They are a great company and make some fantastic products. I just cannot get into this amp modeling world.

    I have played almost every type of unit that has come out by Line 6 and i always like their stompbox effects and there PODs for effects purposes but their amp modeling is just terrible. It is unnatural and just purely processed sounds. You cannot make a digital preset sound like a Bogner XTC or Mesa Boogie Dual Rectifier. No amount of processing power can recreate those tones. It simply cannot be done.

    This amp is one that has the power and versatility of the POD series units but in an amp form. You get basically all that the POD has but you can blast it through their speaker combo.

    The only amp models that I like in this batch are the Soldano, Bogner, and Vox amps. The other ones sound thinner and metallic sounding. The vox amps can take effects well and so the tone is a little bit more tolerated. The Soldano and Bogner have so much gain that is kind of masks that you are playing a digital amp. You can't dial the processing out of it but this is a little bit more audibly pleasing. And of course the Mesa Boogies are thicker sounding but still thin in comparison to a real Dual or Triple Rectifier.

    OVERALL OPINION

    These amps have been discontinued and replaced by the Bogner series I believe or maybe the spider. Either way you have to go the used market route to get this amp. If you must own a modeling amp then I would looking into the PEavey series amps. They model their own amps and they sounds decent for digital. If you want all the different amp makers in one then this is the amp for that.

    AMpli à modélisation avec de nombreux sons d'amplis simulés. Il y a un bouton pour ça.
    Ca simule sans oser le dire du Vox, mesa boogie, marshall et fender .
    Des effets préreglé (ou à régler) intégrés dans l'ampli (delay, compression, reverb etc), un bouton drive qui simule les lampes poussées. Un equal High, mid treble pas super efficace

    UTILISATION

    Configuration complexe entre le bouton de sélection d'ampli et le multieffet mais avec les préréglages et le bouton qui sert à imiter le son d'un ampli on s'en sort assez facilement.

    SONORITÉS

    Le son maintenant :
    Soyons clair à coté d'un bon ampli à lampes (hot rod ou marshall JCM800) cet ampli est un tas de merde.

    Le son maintenant :
    Soyons clair à coté d'un bon ampli à lampes (hot rod ou marshall JCM800) cet ampli est un tas de merde.
    Aucune dynamique, c'est plat comme une galette de mauvais transistor. Le son à une tendance au mauvais cristallin sur toutes les configurations.
    J'ai trouvé aucun son qui me procure le début d'une sensation de plaisir, et ce que ce soit en disto ou en son clair.

    Je ne met pas 0/10 en considérant qu'un débutant peut se faire plaisir et avoir des sons très différents (bien que très mauvais)

    AVIS GLOBAL

    Je sais pas le prix mais si c'est plus cher qu'un petit ampli lampes (600€) c'est trop cher!!
    Cet ampli est reservé à celui qui souhaite avoir beaucoup de sons différents et beaucoup d'effets sans avoir à trimballer une caisse de pédale.
    Par contre c'est pas demain que les amplis à modélisations feront trembler Mesa boogie et fender!!!
