The Spider Valve design combines 12AX7 preamp tubes with Line 6’s signature modeling front-end, a marriage that allows each part of the sonic equation to deliver what it does best: creamy, cascading distortion and enriched harmonics from the tubes, and 12 of the world’s finest amp models and seven stunning effects from the modeling front end. And, of course, perfectly matched 6L6 power tubes driving Celestion Vintage 30 speakers to deliver unprecedented sonic impact and spatial imaging.
With the simple front-end controls and display, programmable patches and presets are instantly within reach. Tweak your tone even further with the front panel Presence, Drive, Bass, Mid and Treble controls: this is a true-blue tube amp, and it acts like one, responding and delivering all the analog detail, performance and warmth of every amp model and effect.
The Spider Valve has a very unique sound and tons of effects. You can preset channels with the push of a button taking you to complete insane metal loudness to nice soft easy blues. It sure doesn't look that mean but this amp really packs a punch and it will blow you away!
Amp Models
| Clean
Amber 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
Blue 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
Amber LED – This amp model draws on our analysis of mid 60’s Fender amps, including blackface ’65 Twin Reverb and blackface ’64 Deluxe Reverb. It features a classic glassy high end tone with some snap and bite.
Twin Twang
Blue 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
Amber LED – Based on a mix of a ’65 Marshall JTM-45, a ’58 Fender Bassman, a ’63 Fender Vibroverb and a Supro so it slides between gritty swamp-infected cleans to syrupy smooth, walloping drive tones.
Blues: Class A
Blue LED – based on a fawn Vox AC30 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
Amber LED – A sound crafted during Line 6 studies of the ’68 Marshall Plexi 50 watt which was used by a number of early metal bands. Crunch provides a wider range of tone control settings than the original Marshall amp.
Crunch: On Fire
Blue Green LED – 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
Amber LED – An amp model based on the Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier which produces a tight and punchy, high gain Metal sound.
Spinal Puppet
Blue LED – This sound was created to be an aggressive high gain amp model with a unique mid control that will sweep through 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 it is set to noon, it mimics the creamy modern high gain amp tones. And when it is turned up to Max, it’s very much reminiscent of that Class A sound.
|
Insane
Amber LED – An amp model dialed in for shredding 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.
Insane: Eighties Solo
Blue LED – Line 6 had a goal in mind 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.

QUALITY:
This is built like a tank. Much better than my flextone 111 i sold. 5
FEATURES:
Lots of sounds. A bit two many the same. But still how many do you need. Like the artist ones just to fool around with. Better to use those and tweak to your own style. Tubes and Bogner awesome.
EASE OF USE:
Not bad if you have grown up in the digital age. if you can do a pod you can do this. 5
VALUE:
Certainly doesn't cost as much as a real bogner. And not so sure it sounds like one either. But for the money and what it is capable of doing. Very cool. a big step in the right direction. 5
SOUND:
Still playing with it. This may take awhile there are some great sounds in here. need time to tweak them and pick faves. So far i am digging it and having fun. I can see this taking the place of my 40 watt tube marshall and effects board for giging out. Think i will go play now. 5 | |

QUALITY:
very well made, probably will last a very long time
FEATURES:
tons of different tones possible,
EASE OF USE:
very easy to use, just turn the knobs to set the sound you want, then push the channel button
to save. Easy to transport and load into my vehicle, instead of lugging my Marshall 4X12 cabinet. Even lighter than my Fender Blues Deville
VALUE:
compared to the number of effects and different amps that would have to be
purchased is an excellent value.
SOUND:
great tone, very loud even for just 1 12In speaker, my expandora distortion pedal sound great on the front end,using the twang setting. also sounds great using the preamp out and running into the effects return on my Marshall JCM 900. I think sounds better than my Marshall JCM 900 and AVT150X. The twang tone setting sounds very close to my Fender Blues DEville. |
