The Line 6 Spider IV 30 offers incredibly detail rich modelling of the best and most popular amplifiers of all time. Now featuring an integrated tuner, crisp response and even better sounds!
With the current generation of the world famous Spider models, the modeling pioneer Line 6 is setting new benchmarks for realistic sounds and authentic playability. This amplifier series is specially suited for practice sessions and small gigs. Next to the detailed sound image of tube-typical compression and juicy address, the Spider Series is exceptionally well suited as a fantastic jam partner for play-a-longs and jam tracks with an AUX input for CD/MP3 players.
The Line 6 Spider IV delivers 30 Watts of power to a large 12” speaker, producing a powerful and room filling sound. The 4 selectable amplifier models from Clean over Crunch and Metal up to Hi-Gain “Insane”- which are selectable via the optional FBV Express Board via footswitch, can be saved on 4 internal memory spaces and can then be later reloaded.
In addition, the free “Spider IV Edit” software from Line 6 provides near infinite possibilities, share saved creations with others Spider users, browse Jam tracks or master online lessons sorted by degrees of difficulty.

The base sound of these modelling amplifiers is determined by the underlying Amp Model: Clean ensures a sustain-rich, clean sound character which stays together even at slightly at higher gain levels. If you are specifically looking for this effect in order to have dynamic Cleans to slightly dirty sounds, then you will love the crunch. Metal and Insane offer the typical Rhythm as well as Lead High Gain axes of the modern metal genre. Regardless of the Model the Spider IV 15 even provides adjustable modulation effects including delay and reverb, whereby a modulation effect (Chorus Flange / Phaser / Tremolo) can be combined with a reverb or delay effect (Echo / Tape Echo / Reverb Sweep).
This is a very good amp for beginners and semi-pros, it gots a pretty cool metal sound, but it could have more features. You can play any kind of music, you can connect your ipod into the amp, that is a pretty cool feature, I advice you to buy him because its in a good price and you dont require a pedal to play metal! But i think this amp is only usefull on metal, if you play rock or pop, this is not your amp.
