collapse expand iconDescription

The Positive Grid Spark NEO is a revolutionary wireless smart guitar headphone amp that brings Spark’s award-winning tone engine into a fully immersive headphone experience. Designed for guitarists and bassists, Spark NEO provides high-fidelity sound, custom-designed drivers and advanced AI-powered tone creation, all in a compact and travel-ready design. With Bluetooth connectivity, built-in amps and effects, and deep integration with the Spark app, Spark NEO redefines what a wireless guitar setup can be.

Authentic Guitar Tone With AI Customization

Who says you need a full stack to dial in killer tone? Powered by Positive Grid’s advanced smart amp technology, Spark NEO gives you access to 33 amps and 43 effects—all in a sleek, comfortable pair of headphones. From searing leads to rich, resonant cleans, you can sculpt your sound with built-in distortion, reverb, delay and more. The companion app makes it easy to fine-tune every detail, so whether you're chasing the perfect bluesy overdrive or a wall-of-sound fuzz, your tone is always at your fingertips.

Immersive 3D Sound With Custom Drivers

Equipped with 40mm custom ABF diaphragms, Spark NEO headphones offer detailed, full-spectrum sound designed specifically for guitar and bass. With a frequency range of 20Hz–20kHz, these headphones capture every nuance, from deep, resonant lows to crisp highs. Passive noise isolation, precision acoustic chambers and dynamic tuning ensure a studio-quality experience for practicing, recording and jamming.

Seamless Wireless Performance

Featuring Positive Grid’s proprietary 2.4GHz wireless system, Spark NEO allows guitarists to play without cables, ensuring an ultralow latency of just 3.8ms. The included wireless transmitter pairs instantly for a plug-and-play experience, while the Spark NEO’s dedicated guitar and Bluetooth channels prevent interference. A traditional 1/4" input is also included for players who prefer a wired connection.

Comprehensive Practice and Recording Features

Beyond guitar, Spark NEO functions as high-performance Bluetooth headphones, perfect for listening to music, streaming podcasts, or jamming along with tracks. The Spark app offers Auto Chords, which analyzes songs in real time and displays the chords for instant playability. Players can loop sections, adjust tempo and even assign amp settings to change automatically during YouTube play-alongs. 

Your Sound, Your Way

The Spark NEO isn’t just about playing—it’s about personalizing your tone. The companion app allows you to tweak EQ settings, adjust amp models and shape your effects until your sound is just right. Save your favorite presets, switch between tones effortlessly, and discover new sonic possibilities with every session. Whether you’re a bedroom player, a session guitarist or just looking for a fresh way to practice, these headphones give you the flexibility to explore your style without limitations.

Hands down the coolest music related tech I've ever tried!

Living in an apartment, and being a musician that runs primarily electric guitar and bass, having a way to play quietly is an absolute necessity. I've ran headphones out of small cube amps before but I still feel limited, this checks absolutely every box I could list and then some. The audio quality, being one of the most important pieces of this kit, is superb. The headphones provide pure, crisp audio and has absolutely no lag in its communication with the transmitter, I notice no difference between this and a wired setup. Now getting into the fun part of the Positive Grid Spark Neo. The vast array of tones in itself is quite impressive. But in their mobile app, the ai tool is an awesome feature. If I want to replicate the tone of a specific band I'll ask it "give me the tone of (such and such band) bass. And it'll provide 4 setups that it deems to sound similar to what you're asking, and I'm impressed by its accuracy. Or if you have a general idea in mind it'll do that too. I'll ask it "give me a snappy tone with some grunge for slap bass" and it'll do just that. I was expecting a cool way to play my favorite instruments in my apartment, but what this is, is far beyond that. It's blown me away from the audio quality, build quality and comfort, to the features and its vast customizability. If this is on your mind, just buy one!

    These things are great. I previously used Yamaha wl500, the base station is good for a about 15ft. I switched to the neo because it doesn't have a base station so I can go practice anywhere in the house grabbing my guitar and headphones.

  • Yes... I would buy this again

    I bought my unit at the Orlando store about two weeks ago. The unit was so new that it still had a notice on the box saying not to sell the product before the release date. When I tested it, I noticed the headphones were introducing some unwanted hum, especially with higher-gain effects. It was as if I were using a P90, but I was using humbuckers, so that shouldn't have happened. I returned it and got a new unit, and the hum was gone—it was a defect in the first unit. The headphones are excellent, the effects sound great, and the volume is more than enough. Just be mindful of any unwanted hum or buzz in your signal...without it, the product is perfect.

  • Let's get rocked!

    Easy set up (after factory reset to fix funky audio), great sound, no noticeable latency. Love being able to stream songs from Spotify to play along and you can practice a riff a dozen times without driving your family crazy. #sweepstakes

  • Great for portability!
