Line 6 Spider Jam 112 Guitar Combo Amplifier (75 Watt, 1x12 in.)

Feature:
You need to splurge for the FBV shortboard to get hands-free functionality, but it's definitely worth it! The ability to lay down multiple guitar overdubs along REAL backing tracks is really fun and TOTALLY ADDICTING. One very cool feature is the RCA jacks that allow for separating the jam tracks from the original guitar signal which gives a realistic "on stage" experience. I'd give it a "10" if it included a few more features such as: tempo-independent pitch transposition of jam tracks, smart card digital transfer; MIDI capabilities and better effects control using the pedal board, etc.

Quality:
Good sturdy basic-amp construction. Brand new, so I can't yet comment on durability. The Celestion 75W speaker should be adequate for small venues, but this amp really shines in the practice venue. The cab is open back and is light weight too.

Value:
For under $500 and all these features, this is a great value and will likely raise the bar for guitar amps in the future.

Desirability:
Totally sexy- Guitar->Amp->jam->60 sec->cashier. This amp is so cool that I doubt Line6 will be able to make 'em fast enough!

Sound:
This IS the future of guitar practice amps! From crystal clean to death-metal distortion, Line 6 has faithfully captured the best sounds of the POD effects line into one powerful and amazing guitar amp. The pre-recorded backing tracks are top quality and cover an amazing range of styles from Country to Jazz to Blues to hard core Head Bangin' (great job Line 6)

Ease of Use:
Totally easy- it took me barely 5 min. to start wailing away..Buttons and controls very intuitive.

Support:
No issues to report..works perfectly so far.

Overall:
Line 6 has truly raised the bar for guitarists with this little amp! Would buy it again in a minute. Line6 is reportedly considering our suggestions for feature improvements and I would not hesitate to give it a perfect score in the near future

Feature:
It's got so many sounds that a pedal isn't needed! Yeah, maybe in the future, you'll want to get a pedal for even more sounds but it is not needed. It has 2 guitar inputs for you and your friend to play together. If your friend can't make it, just play one section of the song and record, then play along with it.

Quality:
This little amp is LOUD! My friend was messing around and turned the master slightly of half and we were blasted especially that the amp was 2 feet away pointing at us. I'm scared to go above halfway on this baby. The unit is solid as a rock. I have heard that the screws come out but it never happened to me.

Value:
I got this at guitar center when they first came out. I don't think the price has gone down yet! It definitely is a good choice for Line 6 to not lower the price. People just keep buying these bad boys.

Desirability:
It's a key element for a guitarist. You need an amp.

Sound:
I've had this amp for a while now and still haven't got bored with it. It sounds amazing and with hundreds of different preprogramed sounds, you can't stop. What makes it awesome is creating that perfect sound for that song and saving it in the user bank.

Ease of Use:
All you need to do is plug in and play. Maybe screw around with the knobs for that sound you want but that's half the fun!

Support:
I went onto their site and asked some questions. Almost instant reply's. Line 6 is great.

Overall:
I think I'll keep this thing for ever. If it dies, (which I don't think it will) I'll get a new one. But like every guitarist, you need more and more amps, guitars and equipment. Who knows.
