As close as you can come with solid state Jan 12, 2010
By Paul
"Tennessee"
I started two years ago with a 15 watt Spider III, then along with other amps, bought a Spider Jam. I thought they were all great. Now they come out with Spider IV, and the difference in the sound is dramatic. They are getting very, very close to tube sound. So much so that for the lousy $299, compared to say $1000+ for 75 watts of tube, this is a real steal.
Loaded with features, and hundreds of presets, it has something for everyone. The Pitch Shifter and 18 available manual settings just add to the fun. And it will work with either generation of FBV pedalboard. Says so right in the manual. The only difference I see is with the generation II pedal you get a USB port.
Does it sound as creamy and smooth as my Peavey Delta Blues or Crate Palomino tube units? No, there is still a little digital overlay around in there. But most people who are looking for a great home based amp, or maybe a church or small gig amp, this is a WINNER and the price is just nuts. Forget the Peavy Vyper, this is hands down much better and you don't have to sink another couple hundred in a pedal to get to all the presets like the Vyper.

The best 75 watt amp for the money. Apr 11, 2010
By Kenneth S. Fishback
This amp is great. It has seemingly endless modeling capabilities. It makes my playing sound professional. The greatest sounds I have had in 28 years of playing.

Great Versatile Amp Nov 02, 2009
By J. Clay
"jrclay@gmail.com"
I've owned several Line 6 products and this is probably the best yet. The tones from this amp are quite impressive, in particular the clean tones are amazing. I've used and owned several vintage and modern tube amps and I have to say this amp is one of the best I've played. Make no mistake, it's not a Mesa or Bogner but for the money this is an amazing amp. The range of tones and effects that you get with this make it a no brainer for anyone who plays a variety of music. It will get as loud as you need it to so gigging with this amp is no problem.

 The Hobbyists Dream Amp May 11, 2011
By Jared Burdick
"JBurd"
I don't gig. It is unlikely that I will ever play in front of a crowd. But if you're like me, play as a hobby and like to fart around with various sounds and genres, this amp is a blast. It is very likely that I will play a Johnny Cash song on Tuesday and a Metallica song on Wednesday. Pretty much just make sure your guitar is in tune and dial up the sound. No pedals, no hours of minor tweaks, just punch it up and learn the song. Virtually every genre is represented here. I also have to mention that although I like metal, I rarely play it. I prefer traditional R'n'R sounds and the Spider IV recreates tons of my favorites in addition to the high gain ultra noisey sounds. Even with the best modeling in the world, my Les Paul does not sound like a Strat being played through 65' Fender. It sounds digital. No getting around it.
Something else that weighed into my purchase was durability. Although I only play for fun, I still play 2-3 hours a day. My 9 year old also is learning to play, so it gets a lot of use and moves from game room to garage to bedroom daily. The one thing that was common in virtually all of the reviews of Line 6 amps was that they were long lasting and durable. I have a family member that is a professional musician and one of his band members gig with the larger 120 just becuase they can take such a beating.
Ultimately I decided that for the price ($300 at the time), I couldn't beat the Line 6. There is just no comparing a tube amp with effect pedals against a solid state modeling amp. They sound better, more prefessional. They are also designed to be played loud to get the most out of the tubes. Although the Line 6 sounds tinny and at max volume, for in home play, it sounds terrific. There are mountains of reviews that compare the Line 6 to Vox, Marshall or Fender. They are ALL better than the Line6, every one of them. But be prepared to pay 10 times the price for effects pedals, head units, cabinets, cables, etc. to get those flawless professional sounds. Good amp, great value.

Finally - Big Brother survives shipping! Feb 13, 2010
By Brian F. Class
I just wanted a little practice amp so tried buying the Spider IV 15 from Amazon, but after two broken ones I got a refund and changed over to the bigger brother hoping the packaging would be better. I was right, whereas the small amp has zero padding and was shipped horizontal, this amp was packed with very nice foam corners and packaged such that is was shipped vertical. It is working great and has even better sound then the smaller one. I am an old rocker and this thing beats the heck out of my old amps and fuzz boxes. My only "complaint" is that it will take months to fully explore everything this amp can do. Just trying all the preset voices took a few days. And it has a nice 30 second recording loop which is great and allows you to jam with yourself. I have also had a lot of fun playing with the automatic harmony feature. This one is a keeper! Oh, and make sure you go online to get the real manual!! And watch some of their how-to movies.
If you are thinking about buying this for your teanager - great idea, he/she should love it. It will fill a gymnasium with sound. And they won't have to buy any other add on sound bending boxes.
