The Line 6 Vetta 2 HD amplifier is a classic among metal heads like myself. And I always wanted one of these for SO LONG, but was it worth buying a 20 year old solid state amp?

Have you seen the $30 rechargeable LEKATO Multi Effects Guitar Pedal, with IR Loading, Bluetooth? Seems like an awful lot of features for very little.

@EasyHeat 10 месяцев назад

I've always wanted to test drive one of those Line6 DT-50 heads. I do know that the Line6/Bogner relationship did not come without some unfortunate technical hicc-ups, but the DT series seemed totally legit at the time. I'd love to see a demo of one FYI. Cheers!

@EasyHeat 10 месяцев назад

@@steveclark9934 Agreed, I have honestly been pondering getting one or it's other brand variants. I've been using a discontinued Vox Nu-Tube Silk Drive as a clean preamp to liven up amp sims and to use analog Boost/OD/Distortion/Fuzz pedals with them, but an IR loader/amp sim for $30?!! Seems to good to be true, but a small investment to toy with IMO. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

*_I love the Vetta. Anyone who is interested in owning one of these today, note that if the original battery is still in it, you will have to replace it. It’s a ticking time bomb at this point. This requires disassembly of the head and desoldering of the original contact points of the battery holder to remove the battery. It’s not as hard as it sounds, and there are a couple visual guides online that can walk you through this process step by step. Ribbon cables are prone to become disconnected, as shown in this video, so making sure those are locked in is good practice, too. Lastly, the original Vetta can be completely upgraded to the Vetta 2’s firmware for free, so the only difference between the two heads is that the original is 200w and doesn’t come with the Variax connection by default, but can be purchased and installed separately if needed. 😎_*

Just sold my Vetta 2 last year. I used it for a very very long time and had the battery replaced and everything.. I ended up reaching out to meshuggah guys and getting their presets for the vetta 2s they had. The big bottom model/screamer/EQ combination in those amps are the bee's knees and stand up to most current high gain amps today.

@RajorshiBhattacharyya 3 месяца назад

Great video! I have been using Line6 VETTA2 HD since 2006. At that time it was the best option on the market. It's a very reliable and versatile amp. I have recorded 3 studio albums with it. The last one in 2013, when the VETTA2 stopped competing in the HI-Gain section with new simulations. I have a few demos on my channel.

@jacek5572 10 месяцев назад

The ground wire coiled around the ferrite is 100% intentional, by the book, and from the factory, its a very common technique that acts as a filter and reduces electromagnetic interference. You see it a lot in industrial electrical panels where it looks like what you have there, but also on consumer USB cabling (called a ferrite bead and is that plastic pill shaped thing on the cable).

@lordovthorn2747 10 месяцев назад

@michelmetal666 10 месяцев назад

Hey Taylor. Great demo! I have one since 2010 and it is my main amp. I have put a lot of time in finding the sweet spot but when you find it it’s a very brutal metal amp. I play death metal in standard B on six string guitars with 12 to 52 gauge and it sounds massive. I have used 4 4x12s and it powers them effortlessly. Normally I use 2 4x12s and I set the power amp to half power 😂. Someone said that the original power cell battery should be replaced, I think that’s a good plan for I still have the original in the head. Greetings from Holland.

I had the Vetta I combo. Once you spent hours deep diving you could get a multitude of Insanely complex tones. Once you realize that almost all models are gained and volumed much higher than needed with the od's,eq's and boost's it became a complete Tool box for me in a 70's and 80's cover band.

@chronik301 10 месяцев назад

When I was playing bass in my band the guitarist bought the hd147 head which basically only had the metal amps from the vetta 1. It always sounded great. I later bought and noticed that with the vetta s and hd147 they sounded very well if there was only one guitarist in the band. But if you had two guitarists and the other was running a recto or 5153 there tone just always over powered the line 6 stuff. No matter how you played with the eq's they got lost on stage.

Turning cab sim off and just going through the cab raw was incredible. The update that added all the old pod amps was pretty sweet too.

The only Line 6 I would ever own even as old as it is. *The ultimate solution to a lot of digital amps and even floor modelers is simply plugging in a good analog pedal into it, using the digit for a minutes amount of gain, and overdriving it heavily with the analog source.* I've been doing that for 20 years to great satisfaction. *I can't imagine this thing could be so bad, I think even new Line 6 gear sounds terrible and would take this over one.*

Have the Vetta 1 and its upgraded to the Vetta 2 software. Killer amp for back then and definitely fun. I bought mine for $700 back in the early 2000's. Most were selling for over a grand and found it at gc one day walking by the used section. We've come a long way since then and even though in my mind it sounded great I know it would get blown away by the new Axe fx's and Kempers and modern day modeling/cloning. Line 6 was the pioneer in those days. I remember wanting a Hughes and Kettner Zentera modeling amp too.

@darthsmolin 10 месяцев назад

Loved these amps back in the day. Very cool concept and great, intuitive UI. Sounded great at lower volumes, but they got lost in the mix pretty quick. Would've sounded great if paired with a stronger power section which other companies and even Line 6 solved for with their modeling amps years later.

@leavingsoulsBO 10 месяцев назад

The Vetta was essentially the X3 head, hence the dual amps and some fx. As a longtime X3 user I've always felt the dual amp thing was kind of a gimmick really causing more trouble than anything. The only way it made sense was for a dual cab effect in order to get a decent IR direct (essentially same amp, same settings, diffente cab and/or mic)

The fact this is about 20 years old and you could run dual amps on one head is absolutely crazy to me. I'd love to see some Line 6 reissues someday (even though the amp head economy sucks atm), like if you could combine Line 6's DSP prowess with components like the Orange Super Crush (which people say is supposed to be more "tube like" despite being solid state). Overall awesome vid, thanks for getting me more into Line 6 history! Also any plans on checking out the newer Helix updates? They added things from the Metallurgy collection like the Sunn amp and the new cab system

@apoplexiamusic 10 месяцев назад

I had a Pod X3 i got in 2008 and it had a full dual amp signal path, which was a complete game changer for me. I didn't know how to dial tones well like i do today but i managed to get what were very good sounding ones, to my ears back then anyways.

@blakemoore1905 10 месяцев назад

The x3 was my favorite thing ever i wanna buy one now. I had one a long time ago when ax fx first came out, i borrowed an ax fx and couldn't get any heavy tones that where any better than the x3. Wich was a disappointment cause i was excited to have an ax fx in my hands but relieved i dont have to buy an ax fx. Then i had the pod HD after that and it just wasnt the same. After these Amps line 6 had its downfall for sure

I think this demo sounds really good compared to some of the other real tube amp demos you’ve done. I would think the blending of amps, could be one of the main reasons it sounds good. It’d be nice to know how the POD HD500 pro X dual amp ability compares to this. I’ve been contemplating a hx stomp but if the Hd500x sounds this good or better. I think I’d be good with that. The price on a used hd500 pro x is definitely better.

@MrBruchman 10 месяцев назад

I used a Vetta 1 (upgraded to a Vetta II) for nearly a decade. It was my go-to. What it lacked in tone, it more than made up for in features. I only stopped using it, because as I was scaling back my gear, they introduced the Helix, which fit into my lifestyle much better (IE no more neighbors complaining about the 300 watt power amp). I will say that having used both the I and the II, there was no difference at all between the amp models and tone quality. There was just a lot of new models on the II.

@TaylorDanley 10 месяцев назад

Thanks for sharing. Yes, I would imagine that a lot of that was marketing hype. I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the same models made it to the HD as well!

@bernds8656 2 месяца назад

Had this Amp in about 2004 / 2005. First with the original Line 6 4x12 cab, which was not so good. It vibrates that much that the speaker plug got loose all the time. Then, according to some recommendations on "harmony central" (OMG how many hours I spent there back in the days!) I combined with the H&K "Warp 7" 4x12 cab which sounded better. But the main thing was: That Amp sounded so great via Headphones and also when playing alone. But it never really cut through the band mix when rehearsing, I sold it and ended with a Koch Amp and a Bogner Uberschall cab. I was always on search for that chunky low end. 2006 then I switched to bass, until today :-)

@user-gm8kt8ng7d 3 месяца назад

I absolutely loved this amp...it was my first return to the digital realm after I got over my tube purist bullsh*t. While it's not really useful these days with all of the advancements in modeling technology, it showed me how much I had to gain (no pun intended) from being open minded about gear.

@@TaylorDanley but overall i love the amp, i miss it! it is such a unique amp :) I made also a review of it and idk i think i will buy it again

@ordohereticus3427 6 месяцев назад

Looks more like the X3 system with a massive power amp system and an excellent design layout. I’ve said it before but the Spider V 240HC is essentially the same system again but without the stereo amp blending and a slightly weaker power section in terms of specs.

@GuitarAnthony 10 месяцев назад

I've got one as well but it's the amp/cab version with the longboard controller. Snagged it all at a pawnshop years ago for $300.

Not a bad deal!

I had the Vetta II combo and played it for a few years as my main amp. I loved it till the mother board died on me. There was only one licensed technician in the US at the time and I sent it him to fix it. Got it back and half the functions didn’t work. Ended up selling it for parts. Great amp though

@RyRyTheBassGuy 10 месяцев назад

Man, the high mids on this thing are harsh. Though, not too suprising for a 20yr old digital amp!

@mark7166 Месяц назад

I'm pretty sure the Vetta II came out well before the HD generation of PODs, so I doubt they used the HD algorithms.

@rolandoamado718 10 месяцев назад

HD algorithms did not exist when the Vetta II was released :). The Pod X3 used the same models as tthe Vetta II years later.

It never occurred to me why they had called the 5150 model the "Mississippi Criminal" until George Lynch's comments about Peavey's labor practices. Sounds like Line6 knew what was going on in Mississippi. I had this in both combo and half-stack form. I loved them at first - they're fun to mess with, but in live applications they never satisfied me. I ran the Bogner/Boogie blend for rhythm tone. I ended up selling both, but kept the stereo cab. I now have a Boogie Mk5-35 head atop the cab.

@AdrianNWB 10 месяцев назад

The “criminal” nomenclature is because 5150 is the California police code for someone who is criminally insane. 5150s/6505s were still made in the USA up until around that time that episode of Undercover Boss aired.

@TaylorDanley 10 месяцев назад

That never occurred to me. If it's just a coincidence, it's a hell of a funny one!

@@AdrianNWB 5150 is code for Involuntary Psychiatric Hold. Its a Temporary Hold for people like for example (Steve-O) when they ate in a manic or psychotic state and is to ensure they come down off whatever they were on or to do an alleged proper evaluation. No personal experience here ! Just an FYI. 🤘🏻

I've recorded and played live with this amp, and the Line 6 modeling guitars. The amp sounds great in the small studio/bedroom, but completely lacks on the stage and studio; the tone just doesn't translate. It is my favorite practice amp, but stays in that arena. The modeling guitars, they do extremely well on stage and studio... a couple tours and two albums with Mesa amps.

@Greuh 9 месяцев назад

Man this used to be my dream amp too and I've been multiple times on the edge of buying one used now they're affordable but I'm too scared of those kind of problems. Shame

@martinallen9067 10 месяцев назад

The problem with the high gain tones to me when using my Vetta was the TS effect. When you crank the volume like you would with a TS it introduces a really harsh clipping, kind of like a HM2 but way shittier. Backing it off to 2 o'clock and raising the amp gain. Also the gate is pretty crap

@TaylorDanley 10 месяцев назад

The gate is total garbage 😂 I mean, it's fine if you want a slow AF gate lol

There is a contrast setting in the menu for the screen. Try adjusting that and see if helps.

285 mph is fast, but that doesn't mean that 210 mph is slow. If something sounded great in 2004, it likely will still sound great. Technology can certainly make more realistic tones when comparing them to the originals but some of the most iconic tones in the history of music were made with amps older than your father. Amps like Zentera and Vetta can still deliver the goods.
