Crunch
Red LED - This sound was crafted during our studies
of the '68 Marshall Plexi 50 Watt. This type of Marshall
amp was used by a number of early metal bands. Check
out albums like British Steel, Number of the Beast and
Black Out. Crunch provides a wider range of tone
control settings than the original Marshall amp had.
This Amp Model will allow you to bump up the mids
even at the highest Drive settings.
Green LED - Plexi On Fire! This Amp Model is based
on a ‘68 Marshall Plexi 100 watt with a few added
extras; The combination of a Variac and the jumpered
input channels creates that infamous brown sound
that will feel like flames are shooting out the input
jack! “Come on Dave… Give me a break!”
Metal
Red LED - This Amp Model is based on the Mesa
Dual Rectifier. For Spider III, we made careful
enhancements to this classic tone. The resulting Amp
Model has a definite modern flavor. This monster
truck of tone delivers a tight bottom end that’s big,
powerful, tight and fast. Use this Amp Model to get
a tight and punchy, high gain Metal sound.
Green LED - This sound was created to be an aggressive
high gain Amp Model with a unique Mid control that
will sweep though an entire spectrum of tone on one
knob. The Mid knob for this Amp Model changes the
character of the distortion. When set to minimum,
the distortion exhibits Fuzz pedal characteristics. When
the Mid is set to noon, it mimics the creamy modern
high gain amp tones. And when the Mid knob is
turned up to max, it’s very much reminiscent of that
Class A sound. Of course, then there are all the places
in-between...
Insane
Red LED - This model is our “dialed in for shredding”
version of the Mesa Dual Rectifier red channel. It
combines the intensity and impact of Metal Red, but
delivers more midrange and teeth for that bone-
crushing, brain piercing insane grind.
Green LED - Our goal with Insane was to provide you
with as much input gain distortion as possible short of
complete meltdown. You get an obscene helping of
distortion, while still retaining tonal definition and
character. As a result, you get way more bottom end
and cabinet character than other small amps. Crank
up the Drive control and prepare to dominate!
