Line 6 Spinal Puppet
You know how, when you’re playing head-bangin’ music, you look out into the audience and see all
those heads bobbing up and down? Those are Spinal Puppets. Need we say more?

Line 6 Treadplate
Looking for tight, high gain tone? The kind of sound that powers classic Metallica or Dream Theater
tracks? Then you’ve come to the right place, my friend. This model lets you dial in plenty of distortion
perfect for chunk-chunk-chunking, and also ready to power some mosh pit punking. Its tone controls
have plenty of range to let you scoop out your mids, or beef up the bottom for just the tone you need.

1968 Plexi Jump Lead
Guitar playing is all about experimentation, isn’t it? That, and
nding all the possible ways to get more distortion out of whatever
gear you have at hand. One of the fun things you can do with
a Plexi is take a short guitar cable and jumper channel I and
channel II (as they’re frequently numbered) together for a little
extra saturation. Some guys loved this sound so much that they
pulled the chassis and permanently wired a jumper into the amp.
Being the obsessive/compulsive tone freaks we are, we just had
to give you the 1968 Plexi Jump Lead model to give you a sound
based on* of this setup.

1968 Plexi Lead 100
The 1968 Plexi Lead 100 is modeled after* the infamous ‘68 Marshall
®
‘Plexi’ Super Lead — coveted by tone connoisseurs the world over.
We literally scoured the world for this particular amp, nally nding
a great example of a Super Lead languishing (we like to think fate
preserved it for us) in Holland. By the time this amp was built (ca.
1968), Marshall
®
had completely changed the circuitry away from
the Fender
®
6L6 power tube heritage and moved to an EL34 tube.
Another major tone difference was due to the necessary output &
power supply transformer changes. All this mucking about added up
to create a tone forever linked with Rock Guitar. Amps of this era
didn’t have any sort of master volume control, so to get the sound
you’d have to crank your Super Lead to max — just the thing to help
you really make friends with the neighbors. Hendrix used Marshalls
