Line 6

A powerful, flexible jam and practice rig.

The 75W Line 6 Spider Jam combo amplifier provides guitarists with hundreds of coveted guitar amp and speaker tones and effects. And Spider Jam also offers easy sound-on-sound loop recording with Line 6 Endless Jam tracks performed by top studio musicians. The well-endowed Spider Jam amp gives you the tools you need to hone your guitar skills, write songs, and play with the pros.

Professional drummers, bassists, and guitarists with countless platinum albums to their credit have filled the Line 6 Spider Jam with over 100 pulse-racing Endless Jam tracks and drum grooves. Exploding out of the Line 6 amp's 12" Celestion speaker and 2" tweeter in vivid, uncompressed audio, these tunes were recorded at legendary studios around the word ensuring the best possible sound quality. Plus, the Line 6 Endless Jam Engine keeps all the jams sounding fresh, keeping guitarists engaged for fun days of engaging practice.

Ideal for songwriting and recording, Line 6 Spider Jam captures jams, solos, and song ideas, internally storing up to 100 CD-quality recorded jams, with over 24 minutes of recording time.

Line 6 Spider Jam is capable of supporting more than a single instrument, or an instrument and a microphone. The 75W Line 6 amp offers an XLR mic input with a dedicated volume knob perfect for vocals, and a 1/4" aux input perfect for a second instrument like a keyboard or bass. These 2 inputs share a dedicated set of effects plus preamps, compressors, and a 3-band EQ. Spider Jam also boasts a 1/4" headphone out that doubles as a POD 2.0-style direct out for effortless, hassle-free direct recording.

As a member of the famous Line 6 Spider III family of guitar amplifiers, Spider Jam shares some popular family jewels like 200+ artist-created presets, 150+ song-based presets, 12 original Line 6 amp models, from Clean to Insane, and 7 stunning Smart Control FX, including reverb, delay and more. The Spider Jam's 12" Custom Celestion speaker ensures brilliant guitar tones and an integrated accurate chromatic tuner is always at the ready.

Amp Models:

Clean

Red LED: Crisp, shimmering clean tones and warm jazz tones.
Green LED: Glassy clean tones like those from the late 60s/early 70s. Inspired by a '73 Hiwatt Custom 100.

Twang

Red LED: Classic, glassy high-end with some snap and bite. Inspired by a Fender blackface '65 Twin Reverb and a blackface '64 Deluxe Reverb.
Green LED: Swingin' rockabilly tone a la vintage tweed. Inspired by a '53 Fender tweed Deluxe Reverb, a '58 Fender tweed Bassman, and a '60 Gibson Explorer.

Blues

Red LED: From gritty, swampy clean tones to syrupy smooth drive tones this was inspired by a mix of a '65 Marshall JTM-45, a '58 Fender Bassman, a '63 Fender Vibroverb, and a Supro.
Green LED: Early British rock tone made famous by the Beatles and the Stones. Inspired by a fawn Vox AC-30 with an updated and expanded tone control circuit.

Crunch

Red LED: Classic crunchy tone popularized by many early metal bands. Inspired by a '68 Marshall Plexi 50-watt.
Green LED: The infamous brown sound inspired by a '68 Marshall Plexi 100-watt with a few added extras - jumped input channels and a Variac transformer.

Metal

Red LED: Tight and punchy high-gain sound inspired by a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier.
Green LED: Use this for aggressive high-gain sound. The mid knob sweeps the tone spectrum. Set to minimum for fuzz-pedal characteristics, set to noon for creamy, modern high-gain, or crank it for Class A carnage.

Insane

Red LED: Famed and feared bone-crushing, brain-piercing grind inspired by the Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier red channel.
Green LED: Short of a complete meltdown, this provides as much input-gain distortion as possible while retaining tonal definition and character.

Effects:

Spend more time playing and less time tweaking with Smart Control FX. Find the effect you want, turn the knob to the desired intensity, and you're done. Spider Jam offers seven effects, including dedicated Reverb, to choose from, and you can use up to three at a time. They include:

Chorus/Flanger
Phaser
Tremolo
Delay (with Tap Tempo)
Tape Echo (with Tap Tempo)
Sweep Echo (with Tap Tempo)

    The Spiderjam lives up to its' advertising on all points-is easy to use, and a value among modeling amps. Its' recording in/out feature is worth the price of admission alone!
    The Line 6 spiderjam lives up to all the hype-and then some! The amplifier models have the richness and depth of the differing models they were composed from, with extensive tone capabilities from the intuitive controls, right on top of the amplifier where they should be! Anything from warm and supple jazz cleans to the nastiest metal or shred is only a quick dial turn away! Drive and master controls are immenently useful and straightforward.And, there is a built in chromatic tuner!
    The onboard effects-reverb, chorus, delay, etc.- are good, solid, and thoroughly useful, and the dial controls offer many shades of tone variation within the effect. In addition, The amplifier models each have a preset within these to make that particular model sparkle, although you can change it over to your own setting with a mere turn of the dial. In addition, there are good onboard equalizers and other great tone controllers/enhancers that really make recording with Spiderjam a dream! (More about recording later!)
    The presets- song based, artist based, time period based, style based,- and the jams, drum loops, and tone presets thereof; are a complete and joyful trip in themselves! They are adjustable in pitch by moving up or down in half-tone increments (Be forwarned; the one caveat: move them up too much and they will get a helium effect-the beat tempo goes up with the key change, but again, no-one else seems to be able to stop this on these stand alone units, either!) and there are literally hundreds of choices, be you a rock, jazz, country, alt player, or any style in between! All of them are real band jams, and are professionally produced and performed. I'm still trying them out, but all I've tried have been great!
    The recording and looping features are one of the top reasons to buy this baby-they perform as advertised, and more! Good clean recordings, with natural sound, whether on your own, or using the built-in jams! Inputs are available to run in other instruments (even keyboards!) or a microphone-you could create a convincing demo with this, and then burn it to c.d. with the aux out provided for that purpose! And as well, a whopping 30- plus minutes of recording time! A joy to practice with! I played a recording I made with it of a jazz piece, for a classic era jazz fan, and they couldn't believe the authentic tone!
    The Spiderjam is a very solidly built amplifier, too, and its' 12 inch Celestion custom speaker, and 2 inch tweeter, can handle it, and dish it out! It can very convincingly convey the tones of even an acoustic/electric guitar, better than many more expensive amplifiers. At 75 watts, it will be a formidable club gigging amp!
    I could go on and on, but, may I refer you to the Line 6 web site, as well as many video demonstrations on the web elsewere, and I think you will be convinced as I was. This is my amp, Line 6 is pointing the way to the future, and my next stop will be a Line 6 Tyler variax!
    Thank you Line 6, for the best amp I've ever owned, and thank you Musicians friend, for the great deal, and fast, free shipping! Rock on, everyone!

    I've had my Spider Jam for a month now and still can't dial in the presets the way the manual says. So I just play around with it for a while, then get on Line 6's website to try to find the answer. Bottom line-if you want to spend more time reading and searching for answers and help online than actually playing your guitar-then buy this amp. I'll go back to my Fenders and Peaveys, thank you very much.

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

      I just love this amp. I am practicing my guitar lead with it. It's just fantastic. Since I've got it, I am a better lead guitar. I could perform faster and faster and faster. This amp gives me energy and I just want to play more and more. Once a week, I play with my Rock band (drum, bass, guitar,...) and this amp is just what I need to practice at home between the rehearsal.

        I found the amp very fun to use. The instruction book is short, but it gives you enough to start exploring the many features of this extroadinary amp. The many features are easy to access and found the rather complex layers of functionality well thought out. Bottom line... this thing is a blast.

        This is more than I ever expected in a small practice amp. I can put on my head phones and play for hours no need to call in the band. This is a great way for just you and the bass man to tighten up and improve your playing skills. The loops are endless and makes recording and writing your own music fun and easy. Only had it for a week or two, so I still have a lot to learn about this awesome masterpiece. This is what I've been needing for years and didn't no anything like this existed. If you are a beginner or seasoned man this is for you. Thank you Line 6

        Here it is, this amp is a blast if your playing at home by yourself or with a friend. The recording function is great to record your own stuff, plus you can overdub on-top of yourself (awesome) Great fun plus the tuner is amazing. Downside... the sounds are really generic. You won't find "your sound" on this amp. It's just kind of blah when it comes to the sounds. The back tracks are fun and this amp is a blast to jam to! If you're looking for a fun practice amp, buy this one. If you're looking for a performance amp with power, pass this one up.

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

        Love the amp. Lots of fun to use, and can spend hours practicing to the various backing tracks, which will help me improve as a guitarist. I have two items I would like improved.

        1) The volume between amp models is inconsistent, getting much louder as the amount of gain/distortion increases. If I want to bounce around between backing tracks and song styles, the amp model changes, which means I have to keep adusting the volume on my guitar. There had to be a way to allow the sound to change between models, yet keep the output level consistent. I am not the only one to post this or call them about it, so they really should consider this going forward.

        2) It would be nice to have a larger display and/or a display that tilts forward so I don't have to stand directly over the unit to see what options are selected.

        Other than that, this is a fantastic value and I highly recommend it.

          Great sound! Playback of WAV files is Awesome. Endless loops are great to practice with. Sounds are versatile. I wish programming the footpedal was easier though. Used it at weddings as a DJ and Mike system too. On the negative side. The Jam got fried due to a power surge. Fuse did not protect the Amp. Got the warranty and getting another!

            Frankly I own a lot of Line 6 gear from a Pocket Pod tucked in a guitar case as a mobile practice rig to my stage set up of POD XT Live gear. I have taken to this amp like a duck to water follows the classic Line 6 logic when it comes to tweaks and changes ( though not much is needed) a bump of a knob here a scroll of a menu there and presto... TONE. I purchased it with an elevated stand so it is comfortable and easy to use I also bought the MkII shortboard but after a 2 weeks still haven't plugged it in to see what else remains in this little powerhouse. Order the 2G SD cards online they are cheap and plentiful, (you probably won't find any in a local store) I dig this amp keeps me up late working on new ideas and grown' notes, uploaded without issue to my PC. inputs are awesome... No complaints (well wish it had a cover but a girlfriend is making me a custom one so...) 5 stars and an A++ for Line 6 Spider Jam!
