Line 6 Spider Valve™ MkII HD100 100-watt Guitar Amp Head

Spider Valve™ MkII HD100 100-watt guitar amp head is the result of a ground-breaking collaborative effort between living-legend amp designer Reinhold Bogner and renowned amp-modelling upstarts Line 6. On the heels of its celebrated predecessor, the original Spider Valve HD100 combo (the #1-selling tube head in America*), Spider Valve MkII HD100 offers the best of both worlds: brawny, boutique-style tube tone and the latest, most advanced Line 6 amp modelling with complete flexibility and deep editing.

Build your sound from the ground up with 16 of the most advanced Line 6 amp models. Each one was inspired by a celebrated American, British and European head or combo. Get sparkling clean tones, syrupy smooth drive tones, high-gain onslaughts, mid-range tones on the verge of break-up, and more with the tonal nuances of the modelled originals.

Start smart and dive deep with the unprecedented control of Line 6 Smart FX. 20 brilliant effects deliver unprecedented colour, adjustability and routing options. Dig into the Smart Harmony, Pitch Glide, the 14-second Quick Loop, and more, and route each one pre or post for an extraordinary collection of tone-shaping tools. Plus, you get every guitarist’s required palette of colours including beautiful Delays, Mods, Reverbs and more. Tweak up to 6 effect parameters; use up to 4 effects simultaneously.

The signal from the Line 6 front-end flows into the Bogner-designed 12AX7 preamp and 6L6 power amp to produce creamy, cascading distortions and enriched tube harmonics.

Spider Valve MkII HD100 is poised to become the workhorse amp for all kinds of pro players with its MIDI in/out, 128 user presets and two distinct output modes: Performance Mode lets you send a signal, which provides the interaction of the tube and modelling, via the XLR out to the front-of-house engineer; Studio Mode bypasses the tubes to send modelling only.

Add a Line 6 FBV Shortboard™ MkII foot controller to Spider Valve MkII HD100 and get out-of-the-box Volume/Wah, Pitch Glide, preset control, Quick Loop control, and more.

Spider Valve MkII HD100 pairs perfectly with optional 412VS closed-back cabinets. The slanted or straight cabs are stocked with four 12-inch Celestion® Vintage 30 speakers to produce superior tone of the highest definition.
