Like having your guitar-slinging hero personally set up your amp and effects.

The Line 6 Spider III 75 Guitar Combo Amp delivers killer amplifier and effects models, and a ton of presets created by some of the world's most notorious guitar stars from bands including 311, Thursday, Lacuna Coil, Hawthorne Heights, Slipknot, Ash, Albert Lee, Athlete, John 5, and many more.

Line 6 has also given the Spider III 120 another 150 song-based presets—sounds from such classics as No More Tears, Enter Sandman, Stinkfist, Back In Black, Bark at the Moon, and many more! These presets combined with 7 quality effects models, make the Spider III a giant of tone that give you any tone you want, already dialed in. Now you can rule the stage with the Insane model with its truly massive gain or explore your sensitive side in the studio with the Clean model. It's all up to you.

New to the Spider III guitar speaker is a huge range of killer mid-gain guitar tones. A critical advancement was made to the sound and feel of the Spider III line when their discerning panel of artists focused in on the venerable "mid-gain" range of tone to deliver the complex, layered and dynamic amp tone we all appreciate from classic and boutique amps.

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 '60s and early '70s clean tones. It is like a 1973 Hiwatt Custom 100 with an extended tone control range and tightened up low end.

Twang: Red LED - This Amp Model draws on the mid '60s Fender amps, including the blackface '65 Twin Reverb and blackface '64 Deluxe Reverb. It has 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: 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. It captures that early British pop rock tone that the Beatles and the Stones are so well known for.

Crunch: Red LED - This sound was crafted from 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 amplifier 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 a "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 - The goal with Insane is 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.

Reviewer's Play Style: jazz, metal, a bit of blues

Well here's the thing, this isn't exactly a fender deluxe twin reverb on the jazz tone scale of things--in other words, it sucks for jazz. But otherwise, it's pretty nice. You can get a sweet metal tone and a really gritty, driving blues solo tone. I like this amp a lot but it's not perfect. At high high volumes it feeds back incessantly and using the presets is nearly impossible. Most of the effects aren't very good, especially the flanger, but the reverb is nice. The chorus effect is standard and the delay is surprisingly good. So, overall good buy but not the best.

Reviewer's Play Style: everything, rock pop funk blues metal

ive been playing for about 2 1/2 years now and i got this amp about 10months ago. it has any effect/feature you could want. the only negative aspect i found was that if u turn it up really loud the sound quality goes from 9/10 to 7/10. other than that great practice amp (whether alone or with a band) and great for medium sized gigs

Piece of junk...

Reviewer's Background: Musician-in-training

Reviewer's Play Style: Not rap or newer country

My friend bought one of these. He thankfully only plays metal, because any other tone you try to create sounds horrible. It worked ok for the first couple of months, but ever since the thing overheats without a large fan right behind it. The tone turns muddy, and the volume starts to go up and down at random. Don't buy this thing just because it's cheap - save for something better so you, and your bassist, don't get stuck waiting for your amp to get done cooling down.
