Line 6

Founded only in 1996, Line 6 set out on a mission to mix the power of modern technology with the virtues of vintage electronics. By releasing the first digital modelling amp later that year, they gave the guitarists an amplifier that could imitate the tonal characteristics of the world's most famous amps. Legendary Line 6 products such as the pocket pod also allowed guitarists to sound like a rockstar wherever they were with its portable pocket size.

Most non-musicians are likely unaware that the past fifty years of guitar amplifier technology has had a more significant impact on the history of rock music than the electric guitar itself. Each individual amp and effect design was created to distort and color the guitar signal in a different way, contributing significantly to why the guitar sounds of the Beatles were so different from Jimi Hendrix or Pink Floyd. In the mid-1990's, Line 6 set out to meet the needs of today's guitarists by harnessing technology to turn a wide range of great tone into a reality for every guitarist.
