Beside the 300+ presets handcrafted by 50 rock stars, and beside the almost 200 presets inspired by the best guitar songs of all time, the Line 6 Spider amp can create and save up to 64 of your own user presets.

Dialed in by rock stars
Who do you want to sound like today? Discover the tones of your heroes in Line 6 Spider IV 75. 50 famous guitarists and bands, including Coheed & Cambria, Johnny Marr, Slipknot, and others, handcrafted more than 300 of their signature tones and turned them into Line 6 Spider IV 75 presets—from sparkling cleans to effect-laden tones to saturated high-gain heaven.

Dialed in by Line 6
Get one-touch access to almost 200 tones based on the best guitar songs of all time—from the switchblade-swinging slapback of the 1950s to the high-gain distortion of the 2000s. Get the tones from Master of Puppets, Back in Black, Whole Lotta Love, Daytripper, Toxicity, Purple Haze, Head Like a Hole, Smells Like Teen Spirit, Crazy Train, and more.

Edit, store and share. All via computer
Line 6 Spider IV Edit software (a free download from Line6.com) is an editor/librarian for your Spider IV 75 tones. Bask in the glow of your computer while you edit presets, create backups, and even email tones to other Spider IV players.

Smart FX
Smart FX knobs put award-winning Line 6 effects at your fingertips. Easy to use, Smart FX let you spend less time tweaking and more time playing. Quickly add or remove any amount of the 20 lush reverbs, exceptional echoes, tangy mods, and more. Make all your adjustments on the fly—all the knobs are on the front panel. Up to 4 Smart FX can be used simultaneously.

Go deeper into FX
This Line 6 amp lets you deep dive into your effects like never before! Every effect is fully adjustable up to 7 parameters deep, including pre- and post-amplifier routing. Sculpt your delays, mods, reverbs, pitch effects, and more with unparalleled control.

Spider FX Infusion
What's better than more effects? More effects for free! Spider FX Infusion (a free download from Line6.com) more than doubles your amount of Smart FX. Beef up your Line 6 Spider IV 75 with 28 additional overdrives, compressors, delays, reverbs, mods, and wahs. You'll have more effects than any other modeling amplifier.

Pitch effects (Smart Harmony and Pitch Glide)
Smart Harmony is Line 6's first intelligent pitch shifter. It's fast-tracking and easy to use. Harmonize using major, minor, pentatonic, whole tone, and other types of scales. (Don't worry, you don't need to know music theory to use Smart Harmony).

Pitch Glide is most effective when used with an optional FBV MkII footcontroller. Use the footpedal to smoothly shift your tone up or down to any interval within a 4-octave range. The effect can be calibrated to semitones, or to 10-cent increments to create cool chorus/detuning effects.

Quick loop
Quick Loop is a 14-second sound-on-sound looper that's ideal for writing songs, practicing solos, jamming, and even dialing in your tone. Easy to use, Quick Loop's controls are all on the front panel. Connect an FBV MkII footcontroller for handsfree control of the looper functions.

Simultaneous FX
Use up to 8 effects at the same time! Pour on the colors and textures with all 4 Smart FX, set the adjustable Boost and the Noise Gate, activate Quick Loop, and connect an FBV MkII footcontroller to kick on the volume/wah pedal. How many other amplifiers can do that?

Speak up
Celestion guitar speakers are world renowned for their exceptional definition, clarity, and feel. And that's just what they give to Line 6 Spider IV 75. The 1x12" Celestion custom speaker helps clean tones sparkle and sing, creamy overdrives respond to the intricacies of your picking, and searing brutal tones launch themselves from the cabinet.

Manual mode
Manual mode draws a more traditional amplifier experience out of Line 6 Spider IV 75 guitar amp. When Manual mode is activated, all front-panel knobs work independently of one another. (Out of Manual mode, choosing an amp model may adjust the settings of the other front-panel knobs.)

Stay focused
To get the whole story of Spider IV 75 amplifier, you need to turn one around. It features a perfectly tuned three-quarter closed-back speaker cabinet. This provides a tight, punchy, focused response that you can't get from an open-back guitar speaker cab.

Tune up
You'll always sound your best with the Line 6 guitar amp's built-in tuner. No need for an external tuner or additional guitar cables, this invaluable tool is integrated into the amp's front panel. Activate the tuner with the push of a button.

Window to the soul
A large, two-line LCD is your window into Line 6 Spider IV 75. This is where you can deep dive into effects and adjust their parameters, scroll over 500 presets, see the tuner interface, name your user-created presets, get a visual representation of where your Smart FX knobs are set, and more.

Downloads and upgrades
Keep your Line 6 Spider IV 75 guitar amp up to date with an FBV MkII footcontroller. Connect the Spider IV 75 to Line6.com via an FBV MkII footcontroller to receiver valuable software and firmware updates and upgrades. These updates may include new features, presets, or effects for your Line 6 amp.

Foot controllers
FBV Express MkII delivers hands-free channel switching; FBV Shortboard MkII is a full-on remote control. They both feature a full-sized volume/wah pedal, chromatic tuner display, bright LEDs, durable footswitches and chassis, and more. They keep you at the foot of the stage instead of tied to the front of your Spider IV 75. They also feature USB connectivity for keeping your Spider IV 75 up to date. (Footcontrollers sold separately.)

    Line 6, Great Products.
    I will make this short and to the point. I purchased a Line 6 Flextone when they first came out (1996) because I was looking for an amp that had very simple methods of operation and, a wide variety of sounds. At first I wasn't too pleased mainly because the amp had a lot of features and, I somewhat became intimidated by all of the features. I also did not have the floorboard when I purchased this amp.
    The more I used this the better it got and, then I purchased the fllorboard and, a whole new world opened up. I have been a musician for over 40yrs. and, I have had extensive experience with just about all types of amps, a lot of them were tube amps from the 60's and, early 70's. Sure they sounded great but back then there was nothing but this. I was always running down to radio shack or any place that had a tube tester to make sure that they were OK, what a pain! Price a new set of tubes to keep onhand in your gig bag, because if you are doing a live show and, have tube problems you better have some handy.
    I am currently using my old Flextone and ,have played countless gig's with absolutely no problems. I will never go back to using tube amps and, I currently have a new Spider IV 75 and FBV shortboard on the way and, I can hardly wait !
    If you want tubes go for it but, don't count Line 6 out or complain because of your own shortcomings. They build a fine product for a reasonable price and, in this day in age that's where my money is going.
    I have transported amps like the Fender Dual Showman and, a Marshall Stack but, those days are over with. It's a new day and those days are gone. Technology is here and, I'm damned thankfull for it. Wished it would have been here many years ago.
    After I recieve my Spider IV 75 and FBV Shortboard and give it a workout and, I'll post another review and, I'm sure it will be an extremely positive one.
    NO PROBLEMS...
    You won't find a better amp with all of these features for the same price.

      Comments about Line 6 Spider IV 75 75W 1x12 Guitar Combo Amp:

      I've own a Line 6 Spider IV 75W for 2+ years. The only draw back is that it will never sound like a 4X12 cabinet, it only has a 12" speaker. If you need power, just mike it you'll be amazed. Put it on top of your 4X12 cabinets, mike it and you'll look good and sound the best.

      I own and tried many top of the line amps, you'd be supprised at my collection (Tubes and all). So far, this is my favourite all around amp. Sound + weight + versatility, just try to beat it. I haven't yet.

          Comments about Line 6 Spider IV 75 75W 1x12 Guitar Combo Amp:

          This product was exactly what I was looking for. I tried multi-fx units (DigiTech, Boss, and Vox) but they always sounded thin or digital. I know some people are happy with them but I couldn't ever get the sound I wanted. There are more presets than you could ever use and they sound great. There are some thick, heavy distortions, great clean sounds, and wonderful lead tones.

          I think it would definitely be loud enough for a small venue. I haven't turned it up past 3 or 4. I also run it into the house at my church. When you plug something into the 1/4 jack on the back, it mutes the speakers. That's a great feature if you want to plug in headphones or run it into a soundboard.

          Service-wise, I ordered it on Black Friday and had it by the next Wednesday. I called and the guy gave me a discount that wasn't available online.

          I would also recommend getting one of the footswitches, otherwise all of the options become useless. You would basically be stuck on one preset unless you wanted to bend down and tweak the knobs.

              Bought Amp for my son after. Looking at used amps first I decided the new one was worth it and I was right. Could not have done better than the line 6. It is loud and have great sound quality. Plenty of effects to keep the kid busy trying new sounds out. Only have for a week but so far extremely happy with the purchase

              Comments about Line 6 Spider IV 75 75W 1x12 Guitar Combo Amp:

              I bought this amp after using a Roland Cube for two years. This amp is quite a step up from the Cube and sounds great for its price. This amp has effects upon effects, varying from auto wah, phaser, reverb, delay and many more. I don't use the preset effect combinations very often, as I find that it is easier to fine tune each effect manually instead of cycling through the hundreds of presets. This amp does get very loud and I usually keep it at only a quarter of the max volume when using it in my house. I play a lot of Muse on my PRS SE 245 and was happy to see that I could mimic many of their songs with the built in effects. I would reccomend this amp to any beginning or casual guitar player.

                      I am not a Line 6 fan but some of what they make is okay, like the flextone. The spider series are simply trash. They may sound good at low levels but they cannot handle stage sound and will get drowned out every time. At higher volumes the amp simply puts out a wall of unbearable noise. You hear noise, but you dont hear your guitar. Yes this thing will make a cheap guitar rock, but only at low levels. Do yourself a favor learn about the tone you want and get a good tube amp that does it like Marshall, Blackstar, Laney, or Bogner (not the line 6 bogner.. its trash too)put a few effects in front of it and feel the magic. Spider amps are cheaply made toys.

                        Comments about Line 6 Spider IV 75 75W 1x12 Guitar Combo Amp:

                        This amp is awesome. I have the Spider 15w, 30w, and 75w, and they are all excellent amps. I got the 15w amp first and I could not believe how loud it was for just a 15w amp, and the 30w is really loud, and of course the 75w could blow out windows! 5 Stars all the way for this amp!

                            I love this little amp. If you're an "in the house" rocker, it's perfect. It is loud enough to easily hear over drums in the house, and can be quiet enough not to wake up the kids, however it not quite loud enough to gig with. Some people might give it negative reviews cause it's hard to hear outside with a full band or something stupid like that, but remember, its a 75w with ONE speaker. Its not a 4x12 cab with a 150w head. I play stuff like Metallica, Slayer, Iced Earth, etc...and it works great. Cleans are crystal clear.(awesome with a little chorus and delay.) Distortion is even better. I don't use any of the presets, though they are fun to play with, just dialed in my own tones and been rockin' since.
