formercakid 0 Posted June 23, 2019 Anybody know whats going on with SPIDER V. Looks like Sweetwater and Musicians Friend are no longer selling V120(not available)????????? Me thinks LINE6 is brewing something up!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
phil_m 4,522 Posted June 24, 2019 The Spider V is going to be around for quite a while. Look at how long the Spider IV was available. The problem is that some of the online retailers have issues with their stock tracking systems that seem to mark things that are out of stock as being discontinued... There are no immediate plans to replace the V with something else. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They did release new hardware, but the only hardware differences are aesthetic. All the guts are still the same. They changed the silk screen and the knobs on the mkii versions are slightly different. Firmware 2.00 essentially turns all the original Spider V amps in Spider V mkii's.

SeaRefractor 10 Posted July 20, 2019 I've flashed to the new firmware and it is so cool! All the same functionality as listed for the Spider V MKII. The ongoing support of this amp series is really quite astounding. Very, very well done Line 6! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam_T 11 Posted July 20, 2019 Very unexpected , you`d expected them to say that the hardware was different and it can`t be done , so buy a Mk2 ....... but thankfully thery`re now owned by YAMAHA .. nice one Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phrydoom 2 Posted July 30, 2019 The 2.0 update was a pleasant surprise. Very much appreciated! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
