Marshall MG50DFX 2-Channel Combo Guitar Amplifier with DFX (50 Watts, 1x12) $374.99
2 channels. CD input. Footswitch included.

Product Description

Delivering 50W RMS of Marshall power through its custom-designed 12 in. speaker, the twin channel MG50DFX delivers the goods both at home and onstage. Each footswitchable channel has its own set of tone controls for maximum flexibility. As well as producing great clean sounds, when you crank up the Clean channel's Gain control you get a raunchy, blues-tinged crunch. As you'd expect from a Marshall, the Overdrive channel has Gain to spare and also boasts the now legendary Valvestate style Contour control, which allows you to "scoop out" or "fill in" the all important mids. The specially voiced DFX section offers Chorus/Delay, Delay, Chorus and Flange effects, plus a natural sounding digital Reverb with its own individual Level control. Add to this our revolutionary FDD, footswitchable channels, a Serial Effects loop and Speaker Emulated Headphones and Line Out, plus a CD input, which allows you to plug in a CD or cassette player and jam along with your favourite artist or band and you have an unbeatable package for the price.

Roland Cube 60 Modeling Guitar Amplifier (60 Watts, 1x12 in.) $345.00
60 Watts, 12 in. speaker

Product Description

Roland's Cube-60 takes the acclaimed Cube amplifier line to new levels and larger venues. It packs a punchy 60 watts of power into a compact 12- in. design, giving you the performance of a bigger amp, without the excess baggage. It features enriched COSM amp models, popular digital effects, versatile outputs and well-respected reliability. Just like its popular siblings, Cube-60 stretches the limits of where you can go with your music, both in terms of tone and venues. Features Powerful 60-watt output in a compact, 12 in. speaker design.

Built-in 9 COSM guitar amp models, including JC, British Combo and R-Fire.
New Dyna Amp feature offers expressive control over enhanced dynamics and tone transitions based on picking style.
Six classic built-in Roland effects, including Chorus, Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo and independent Delay/Reverb.
Multiple outputs, including Recording/Phones Out, Line Out, Tuner Out and Ext Speaker Out (for connecting external cabinets).
Channel switching, delay/reverb and effect on/off control via optional footswitch.

Bigger, and Better The Cube-60 has more power, punch and performance features than the competition, with a newly developed custom speaker and specially tuned power amplifier. Its compact and lightweight design makes it easy to transport from rehearsal to gig, while its powerful 60-watt output and built in COSM® effects and amp models ensures your performance won't go unnoticed—or unheard!

A Roomful of Amps—All in One The Cube-60 comes with nine onboard COSM Amp models, including JC, British Combo and R-Fier. COSM modeling faithfully provides every inspired nuance and characteristic of a variety of classic and modern amps, down to the preamp and circuits, speaker and outputs. Roland's new "Dyna Amp" amp type lets you create unique tone transitions based on picking dynamics. You can get a transparent clean output sound by picking softly, or a powerful hi-gain amp sound by picking more aggressively. Dyna Amp's distortion can create cool tonal transitions based on the intensity of your performance.

Line6 Spider II 112 Guitar Combo Amplifier (1x12 in.)

 Product Description

The Spider II series makes owning a great digital modeling amp more affordable than ever. As the follow-up to the best selling Spider series, Spider II embraces the same style but delivers much more. Spider II features 12 unique amp models made from combining the sounds of some of the greatest amps in history and places them all in one mean package. Spider II also features an impressive array of effects (7 different effect types, 3 simultaneous) including Chorus/Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo, Digital Delay, Tape Echo, and Sweep Echo. All effects can be easily tweaked using Smart FX, and delay times can be adjusted using Tap Tempo. Other features include a front panel tuner, Spring or Room Reverb, and a headphone out. All models include custom Celestion speakers. Finally an amp that gives you insane tone and power at a new lower price. The Spider II 112 is a 75-watt (mono) amp with one 12 in. speaker.

Smart Control FX
Great amp tone is only part of a great guitar sound. Effect processing – whether it’s stomp boxes or rack gear – is also a big part of the story. Your Spider II packs the power of several of these tone shapers in its Smart Control FX section.

The delay knob gives you a trio of delay effect choices: a standard delay, tape echo, and a sweep echo. The modulation effect knob lets you choose between chorus/flange, phaser, and tremolo, and for each of these effects you can choose anything from a subtle hint of processing to total tone-mangling overkill. While turning the knob, Spider II adjusts all the individual aspects of the effect automatically to give you the range of sounds you're looking for, without having to mess with multiple knobs and switches to get your tone. So you can spend your time making music instead.

Tap Button “Extra” Functions
The Tap Tempo button, in addition to setting the speed of your delay effects, also lets you access a few extra Spider II features: a Tuner, Distortion Boost and a built-in Noise Gate (the tuner and the boost are also accessible via the optional FBV Shortboard). When you hold down the Tap Tempo button, you can use some of Spider II’s knobs to access these extra features.

Tuner ModePress and hold the TAP button or TAP footswitch for 3 seconds or more and and you get instant digital tuner. The volume is muted during tuning so you won’t hear anything coming out of the amp. Press any button to exit Tuner Mode. If there is no FBV Shortboard connected, the LEDs on the front panel of the Spider II will work as the tuner display.

The Amp Model LEDs correspond to the following strings on the guitar:
Clean = Low E string
Twang = A string
Blues = D string
Crunch = G string
Metal = B string
Insane = High E string

The Channel memory LEDs indicate when the string you are playing is in tune. Channel B and C should both light GREEN when the sting is in tune. If channel A’s LED is lit then the sting is flat. If channel D’s LED is lit then the string is sharp.

Distortion Boost
Press and hold the Tap button as you turn the Drive knob up past twelve o’clock. As you do this, Spider II’s Channel A LED comes on. This gives the kind of extra ‘dirt’ that you’d expect from a Distortion pedal with the distortion control set low and the output control set high. It boosts your guitar signal before it reaches the Amp Model, so that you hit the model harder and get a more distorted sound. Enabling this is the same as kicking on Stomp on the FBV Shortboard.

Noise Gate
Press and hold Tap as you turn the Reverb knob up past twelve o’clock, and you turn on a built-in Noise Gate, which helps to cut down on hiss and noise. When you do this, the Channel D LED comes on to indicate that the Gate is on.

Special Hidden Functions
When you select an Amp Model, Spider II automatically sets its tone controls and effects to match that Amp Model. You can disable the auto-FX selection (but not tone control auto-selection) by powering up Spider II with the Channel D button held. The autoselection is re-enabled next time you power up.

Want to know where your Spider II's controls are set in the programmed channels? Hold – and keep holding – the Tap button. Now, before you do anything else, turn the Amp Models knob. This activates Spider II's "Compare" mode. Now turn any knob other than Amp Model and Master Volume, and the channel lights will tell you whether you need to turn that knob up (Channel A lights) or down (Channel D lights) to match the stored setting. The Channel B & C lights will be lit at the same time once the knob position matches the stored setting exactly.

You can reset your Spider II’s programmable channels to their factory-programmed states by holding down the Channel A button as you turn on the power. Warning: This will erase ALL custom sounds you might have created. Ask yourself, “Do I really want to do this?” If your answer is yes, then go for it!

20 Watt with 10" speaker

Randall RX20D Guitar Amplifier with DFX (20 Watts, 1x10 in.) $164.95
10 in. Celestion speaker. 20 watts. 2-channels.

Product Description

Huge sound in a small package, is the best way to describe the New RX Series. Our mission was simple... to deliver a small lower wattage amp line that would retain the tone of much larger box combos. First, it started with shaping the tone circuit to achieve the modern Randall tone, which would deliver both plenty of tight low end and enough sizzle to satisfy a metal monster.

Once the box size was slightly increased to produce a lower resonant frequency, we loaded the 20 and 30 watt models with heavy duty Celestion speakers to deliver the tone. The result is an overwhelming sound that will redefine the modern practice amp.

Technical Description

20 watts
10 in. Celestion speaker
2-channels

Overdrive w/boost mode
3-band EQ
Master Volume control
16 digital effects
Headphone out

Product Description
The Spider II 15 delivers an unheard of range of tones for its size. Four independent amp channel models (Clean, Crunch, Metal, and Insane) come preset with tone and effects settings carefully tweaked by the patients at Line 6’ s Sound Design Asylum. This compact powerhouse has a dedicated distortion boost, noise gate, and the revolutionary Smart Control FX. With six different effect types (two simultaneous), getting the right sound is easy.

Spider II 15 packs six Smart Control FX including, Phaser, Chorus/Flanger, Tremolo, Sweep Echo, Tape Echo, and Reverb. All effects can be easily tweaked and delay times can be adjusted using tap tempo.

Features
4 amp models: Clean, Crunch, Metal & Insane

Smart Control FX
Clean: This amp model gives you everything from crisp, shimmering clean tones all the way to warm vintage tones.

Crunch: Line 6 based this model on a '68 Marshall "Plexi" 100-watt with a few added extras. We threw in the Variac "brown sound" trick on top of jumping the input channels! Now you're on fire!

Metal: This monster truck of tone delivers a tight bottom-end that’s big, powerful, and fast. Use this amp model to get a punch, high-gain metal sound.

Insane: Our goal with Insane was to provide you with as much distortion as possible short of complete meltdown. Crank up the Drive control and prepare to dominate.
