Yeah I got it..the Spider\Bogner Valve 1x12 combo:
I like it - especially for the high gain and clean sounds. The slightly dirty amp sounds have me unconvinced, but (a) it's not a class A amp and (b) supposedly it sounds better the more you turn it up,and I haven't turned it up yet (NYC apartment living kinda kills that option regularly).
The onboard effects mostly blow, and it's developed this really bad habit of squealing for the first minute or so if I take it off standby..probably something bad in the biasing..will have to take it to the shop. But the effects loop is awesome...and I ran a Vox Tome Lab direct to the bogner tube power amp section and it sounded really warmand buttery..better than the line6 digitized processing (except for the high gain, which really is what line6 IS good for)...
The vetta as far as I know is all solid state with the digital modeling. Can't say I'm a fan, although the sounds on tap sure outclass what's in the spider line, which mine is...the only thing that makes the one I got good is that actual tubepreamp\power amp.
They also have a head version of what I got...
Oh and the thing is loud as fuck...On 4 it is fucking nuts...
