Modeling Guitar Amplifiers, Modeling Guitars and Guitar Effects to provide legendary tone for every level of guitarist.
About Line 6 Inc.
In 1996, Line 6 set out to capture the tone of some of history’s most collectible and sought after guitar amplifiers. After years of research and playing, Line 6 launched a patented technology with the world's first digital modeling guitar amplifier, the AxSys 212. This product provided users with models of dozens of classic guitar amplifiers, as well as a complete arsenal of stomp boxes and effects, all in one amplifier! Virtually a dream come true for the working musician, their current lineup of Spider, Flextone, Vetta and HD147 modeling amplifiers recreate a world-class collection of vintage and modern tube amps.
At the end of 1998, Line 6 launched the next guitarist tone revolution: POD. This kidney bean-shaped desktop device went beyond just the modeling of many classic amplifiers, it was created to solve another critical problem that had plagued guitar players: recording great guitar tone, achieved by modeling not only the amplifiers but the recording of an amplifier under ideal studio conditions. With ground-breaking models of the most sought after guitar amps and effects in history, POD gives you the freedom to get great tone anytime, anywhere.
From 2000 to the present, Line 6 has added significantly to its product offering by introducing such complementary and innovative products as stomp (effects) boxes and GuitarPort (a computer interface product). They have also added to their amplifier lineup now offering a model for every level of musician. More recently, they have introduced Variax, the world’s first modeling guitars. The Variax Electric is the first guitar to offer the sounds of an entire guitar collection in a single custom-crafted instrument. Currently being used by some of the world’s greatest players, it accurately reproduces the sounds of a variety of classic six and twelve string electric and acoustic guitars – plus other fretted favorites such as resonator, banjo and electric sitar. The Variax Acoustic offers 16 richly detailed acoustic instrument sounds, phenomenal feedback resistance, unique tone-shaping options and easy access to altered tunings. .
Line 6's passion for excellence and commitment to the development of new technologies has attracted the industry's best engineers and designers, a formidable roster of artist endorsers, and an active, informed user base - a combination that leaves Line 6 well-equipped to take on the enviable challenges of continued growth.
