For detailed warranty information, please see the attached PDF files at the bottom of this document.

 

Your warranty is determined by the region that you purchase your unit. There are three distinct regions for Line 6 products:

 

1) United States (as Line 6 is the distributor)

2) Line 6 UK: United Kingdom, France, Germany, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg, Austria, and Andorra

3) Rest Of World: a series of Independent Distribution Companies. All administration of warranty is done in these three areas.

 

Why is this important to you? Your warranty is only valid in the region where you purchased your unit. If you buy your unit in Germany, then you must have the unit serviced in Germany, or within that region. If you live in South America, you will be interacting with the distributor for the country that you live in. It is for this reason that Line 6 recommends that you always buy your unit locally.

 

You will need to present your original, dated proof of purchase to have any warranty work performed at any Line 6 Authorized Service Center for repair.

 

FAQ's

 

Q: Are Line 6 warranties transferable?

A: Line 6 warranties transfer from one end user to another within the original warranty period (as long as the user has the original dated proof of purchase), but not when purchased second hand from a retail outlet.

 

Q: Do I get a warranty if I bought a unit from Ebay?

A: If you purchase a unit on Ebay, you do so at your own risk. Line 6 honors warranties from authorized retailers only.

 

Q: Do I get a warranty if I bought a unit used?

A: The only way to redeem warranty on a used item is to have the original purchase receipt, dated within the product warranty period. So if you fail to get such a receipt, the manufacturers warranty will not be honored.

 

Q: What do I do if I need a repair?

A: Please refer to our Product Repair FAQ for detailed instructions.

 

The Warranty DOES NOT Cover:

•Damage from physical abuse such as dropping the unit, impact from hard objects or damage to external components as a result of negligence.
•Damage due to liquid contamination.
•Damage resulting from any use other than that it was intended for.
•Any unit that has been repaired or had an attempted repair made to it  by unauthorized personnel.
•Damage due to incorrect connection, connection to faulty equipment or connection to faulty or incorrect power supplies.
•Damage in transit as a result of inadequate packaging or protection.

 

A quick summary of warranty periods is included below, as warranty is  determined by the distributor (Line 6 US, Line 6 UK or the specific  international distributor), your warranty may vary.
