WHICH AMPS ARE MODELED?
Note: For the following description of the TubeTone Amp Models, and other references that
you will find throughout this manual, please be aware that Fender, Marshall, Vox, Boogie,
Soldano, Peavey, Budda, Dumble, Roland, Matchless, Dallas-Arbiter, ADA, Leslie,
Tycobrahe, Binson, Maestro, Pro Co, Ibanez, and other amplifier model designations, and
the names of musical artists and groups, and effects, are all trademarks of their respective
owners, which are in no way associated or affiliated with Line 6. These marks and names are
used solely for the purpose of describing certain amplifier tones produced using Line 6’s
TubeTone modeling technology. The TubeTone modeling technology provides the AX2 Digital
Guitar Amplifier System with a wide variety of sounds and effects modeled after some of the
most popular sounds of the classic amps, effects, and artists mentioned here.
1. Jazz Clean - This Amp Model is modeled after the classic Roland JC-120. This
transistor amp was known for a strident clean sound and built-in stereo chorus. When
using the Jazz Clean Amp Model, try cranking up the treble for a shimmering clean
sound that’ll cut through just about any mix. It’s also perfect for that 80’s “new wave”
sound. Alternatively, try backing off on the treble and turn up the bass and mids for a
darker jazz tone. It’ll give you an essentially flat response, providing a balanced tone
across the fret board for jazz chord melodies or single-line phrasing.
2. Small Tweed - These models are based on the smallest of the 50’s and very early
’60s Fender “Tweed” amps. These were among the very simplest amps that Fender
made, generally with just one tone control. This simple passive “Treble” control did
not add, but simply rolled off high end to adjust the amplifier tone.
2.1 – Modeled after a 1960 Tweed Champ, this is a great sound when the Drive is
cranked (not bad clean, either). These amps were originally designed to be sold to
beginners, but rock and rollers quickly discovered that you could get a great distorted
sound at fairly low volume levels. Many of the classic guitar solos of the 50’s were
recorded through a Champ. The Champ had no tone control, only Volume. With your
AX2, it’s easy to get a classic Champ tone. Just leave all the Bass, Mid, and Treble
