aepoc Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 What’s the difference between the Line 6 original amps: Elektrik, Doom, and Epic? Anyone use them? (I'm at work so I have to live vicariously through you guys since I can't play through them right now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BucF16 Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 Electrik is similar to the Engl model only not as dark. It breathes a bit more and has more sparkle. I think, if my story is correct, that it was the result of initially modelling the Engl in HD modelling but then realizing while it was not a faithful reproduction, it was a great sounding model. Can't talk about Epic or Doom. I don't use either of them right now. Might find a use for Epic but Doom doesn't fit most of what I play. A bit off topi but: In general I have always been a big fan of some of the Line 6 originals in past products, so I usually don't shy away from them at all. Some of my faves: Black Panel Pete...awesome Insane...it's been on almost every product they've had. Again I think it's origins were from early attempts to get the SLO overdrive channel. Chemical X Agro...been on several of their products I think in the Vetta I also used L6 clean and sparkle clean a lot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of my faves: Black Panel Pete...awesome I like that model, too. Although, that's not really a Line 6 Original. It was modeled after a real amp. It's a model of Pete Anderson's modified Deluxe Reverb. http://www.vintageguitar.com/17469/pete-anderson-5/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joetink Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 I LOVED Chemical X and used it almost exclusively to build patches around for the xtlive back in the day. I would love to see an updated version of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
