Description
The Spider V 20 amp has been designed to sound great right out of the box, and its easy-to-use controls and compact size make it the ideal practice amp for any guitarist—from beginners to seasoned professionals. Select one of 16 tonally-diverse amp and effect presets, then use the intuitive interface to quickly tweak that tone to your personal taste if you’d like. Each preset contains three effects that can be switched in and out stompbox-style using the dedicated FX buttons on the front panel. Turning the Reverb knob adds atmosphere and depth to your sound, and you can tap in delay times and modulation rates with the Tap/Tuner button. Press and hold the button to access the onboard tuner.

A micro USB port makes it easy to connect the Spider V 20 amp to your Mac or PC, or iOS and Android device*, where you can edit your tones via the free Spider V Remote app, or record your performances with the included Steinberg Cubase LE DAW.

Intuitive and Easy-To-Use Controls
Designed to sound great right out of the box, Spider V 20 features an intuitive interface with color-coded controls and dedicated front-panel buttons that make it easy to simply plug in and begin practicing. It’s the ideal practice amp for guitarists of all skill levels—from beginners to touring professionals.

Choose From 16 Presets
Spider V 20 features 16 diverse amp and effect presets ranging from Clean to Crunch to Insane, as well as Acoustic and Bass presets, so you can easily dial in the specific sounds you need when practicing different styles of music. Each preset contains three effects that can be switched in and out stompbox-style using the dedicated FX buttons on the front panel.

Essential Features
The Spider V 20 amplifier includes lots of features that make practicing easier and more fun. Tap in delay times and modulation rates to match the song you’re playing along with using the Tap/Tuner button, and press and hold it to access the onboard tuner. Use the dedicated Reverb control to add atmosphere and depth to your sound, and plug your headphones into the 1/8" stereo headphone jack to practice without disturbing others.

Take Spider V 20 With You
Standing less than a foot tall and weighing only 11 pounds (5 kg), Spider V 20 is the ideal practice amp for guitarists on the go. But don’t let its small size fool you—with 20 watts of power, Spider V 20 can get loud.

Great Practice Amp!

Great choice if you play guitar and bass! It's easy to use, sounds amazingly full for it's size, and feels way better built than it's equal priced/featured competition!

I'll just get one without the effects next time!

I bought it for my niece and a bullet strat! the sounds out of the amp arent that great they need to be adjusted by software I was expecting more from a line six product but the speaker on clean sound is great! so with a multieffect pedal it would be fine! I bet I can get better sounds if I hook up the thing to my computer and use the software! for the price! it's fine!

    Great little lamp at a great value with multi functions not needing to purchase a lot of petals at first for a great guitar starter also works well when recording at home and is easy for start up. I own bbe,intellaelflex, sonic maximize,ada and foot pedals. This little amp is a champ for the value.

    So I'm a high schooler, & naturally talented musician. My cousin has a line 6 (older model) and I wanted a line 6. I got this as a Christmas present from family and I loved it from the minute I saw it! I'm telling you this amplifier exceeds all expectations you was in a guitar amp! The only downside is that the power switch is on the back. At first I thought that would bug me, but it really doesn't at all. I play modern style worship music mostly because I'm a lead guitarist for one of the kids bands at my church. I also decided to get a splitter adapter, so I can jam out with my band mates, or cousin. I can play my electric guitar while using my wireless microphone system plugged into the other jack & have my IEM's connected through my microphone system so I can hear the backing tracks, my guitar, and me singing! This line 6 spider V 20 is a lot louder than I thought, its good looking & great for the price!

    Small and easy to use but the audio quality is really poor. Cheaply made, the fabric on the sides are starting to peel. Overall, it isn't a good amp.

    The USB works to modify the effects and record through, but it doesn't have aux capabilities.
