A dude I know plugged a LP in through one wit the foot switch (telephone wire or some shit). Sounded almost exactly like Pantera... I think you have a lotta options with them, besides tubey goodness...
If you think of god as a pair of pants, a spiritualist thinks he needs pants, in fact he wants pants but none of the conventional types of pants seem to fit just right, so he makes his own pants and is happy that his knees are no longer cold.-fibus
will dew
can get a better deal for 100 bucks and i can easily break even onnit
thanks
just wanted to know if i would find someone who has a serious issue with them
They're definately good for clean tones and chuggy metals tonez, the other stuff is reasonable. I wouldn't use it with a band (because of the wattage and way amps like that sound when pushed), but for bedroom riffage, it's gonna be fun.
I've got a 50w spider I. It's a great bedroom pwner. Its definitely not for "fans of tone" as all the digital processing makes any guitar sound like an Ibanez running through a mesa (albeit not as grandiose) or something but you do get variety of sounds. It's no tube amp but it's really worth it. I'd probably save up a bit longer and wait on a cheap bassman 10. It happens.
Ive used a Line 6 Spider on a few occasions, and frankly i think theyre utter crap, only good for clean tones. by god it took a lot of fiddling to get usable sounds.
BUT that is a sweet deal, so i dunno you could always resell it on ebay if it doesnt work for you.
sweet, i picked this thing up from the other side of oklahoma for 100 bucks and now it's sitting in my bedroom floor
i'll do a proper demo of this thing tomorrow after [my first day of] work
and the clean tones are nice once you re-do their shit pre-sets
crunch is a good marshally tone, metal i just said piss off to and use my mt2 for teh tones, and insane i just kick the front end with a boost and it's all good w/ some tape echo and what not, good solo setting though
