« Ok for a practice amp »

Let me start by saying how much I loath solid state amps and how much I can't stand amp modeling. Amp modeling is so processed and fake that no matter how much time you spend with it you will not be able to make it sound real. This amp continues to give me very little doubt about the amp modeling world. Line 6 are definitely the leaders in the amp modeling world but to be honest most of their tones from the recreated amps just don't sound very good.

I like Line 6 products and many of their units I still use today. However, these amps are just garbage. They are positioned for the newbie guitarist who needs an all in one everything amp that has effects, tuner, and load of amp models.

UTILIZATION

* 12 unique amp models
* 7 different effects with 3 available simultaneously
* Smart FX knob for easy tweaking
* Delay times can be set via tap tempo
* 2 - 10" Custom Celestion speakers
* Front-panel tuner
* Spring and room reverb
* Headphone out
* 120W stereo (2x60W)
* 27-1/2"W x 21"H x 15-1/2"D
* 54 lbs.


SOUNDS

This is just a waste in my opinion. I like the way their effects sound and the way that their software is set up much like a real guitar rig, but the distortions and amp models are horrible! To me it doesn't matter what guitar you use with this thing it is going to sound nothing like the amps they are trying to recreate. If you must lay this amp then I would play it with a Gibson Les Paul or something with mahogany for the wood. Something dark and bold that will give some thickness to the tone of this amp.

The amp sounds thin and sterile much like a stomp box overdrive or distortion pedal would sound like. The tone is very brittle and unmistakably digital. You will not be able to dial that out at all.You can hear and feel the digital process in the tone. This amp has no soul and no tone what so ever. It is a complete waste of resources.

OVERALL OPINION

If you want a mp modeler that has effects built in as well then go with one of the other Line 6 amps that Reinhold Bogner helped out with. They actually have a good usable distortion tone. No wonder they went out an found a pro to do the dirty channels.

Line 6 has ceased to make this model anymore. Now they are on the Line 6 1V. Which has about the same amount of tonal qualities. You can find these in the classifieds for around $200 or so and maybe less. I have never researched to find out. My guess is that you will be much happier with the Bogner version.
