JDP Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Do you play gigs or is it for jamming at home ? Just sold my wife's car this morning, a large part from the sale is heading to the music shop to upgrade my youngest's gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, she's also coming to the music shop (incase we need extra money!!). Its a days drive to the shop though. Its funny, many youngsters really like country songs here, which wasn't the case when I was young living in the UK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

suzook12 Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 Dont have a lot of space for effects pedals, the spider fits that bill, and it has recording loop etc as well as amp modelling. It will also cope with gigging should I go back down that road...... I used to run an H&H 100w 2 channel head (nicked from a combo) run through 2 2x12 PA cabs with bass reflex. Trouble with that was it needed to be cranked to get the sound, whereas the new generation modelling amps can provide the sound without blowing the windows out....... I had a Marshall practice amp and a fender amp, both sounded shite to be fair..... Even with a Guvnor or shredmaster pedal, they didn't sound "right"...... So having consulted my guitar guru and lots of research, the spider got the nod, was either that or a katana 50..... I would love to have enough room to run a JCM800 with 4 x 12 but heyho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headlight Posted November 20, 2020 Share Posted November 20, 2020 Katana 50 is what I would have suggested, I"ve had one for 2 years now as my main practice amp. Personally I would say the Katana is a much better amp than a Spider Jam. I"ve had 2 Spiders and not got on with either of them although I have a Line 6 Flextone 111 2 x12, 150watt which I love. I also have a Line 6 Amplifi TT which I like so nothing against Line 6 products just didn"t like the 2 Spiders I had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
