Line 6 Helix Stadium Pre-Launch Discussion

[Sascha Franck]

Kickass sounds.
So far, all the sound demos were absolutely in my wheelhouse (well, the vox-y thing slightly less, but still). High gain is for sissies anyway.

That sounds fantastic. Period.

The tweeds are raunchy and spitty...the Double Black, Princess and Deluxe all have some nice depth to them...more so than I've heard from Helix.

Ok, I'm ready to buy this thing. Too late to pre-order?

Check the Super Reverb. I think it can get pretty close. For me the best clean amp in the current HX-verse.

You just missed the latest 15% MF coupon

 

[Fireproof]

Man every sound clip is just awesome. I’m getting more and more excited with each one.

@Digital Igloo - be honest - are you just super giddy on the inside knowing how good this thing is and how wowed everyone’s gonna be when it’s in their hands soon?

It’s not coincidence that all of his video appearances have only shown him from the waist up.

What? There was a 15% off coupon?!

Oh man - that hurts. How does one find these coupons? I have a GC Gear Card - do I need to sign up on MF or something?

DI - the folks on YouTube have something to say -

If you already have a MF account, go to your Profile, Alerts and Subscriptions, Manage Subscriptions - I have "Offers & Promotions" selected.

Thank you!

Didn't even realize I had a MF account. Am signed up now for offers. I do hope I get one of these coupons - that's not a trivial savings at this price.

Jeebus take the wheel those clean and slightly overdriven tones sound incredible. The section with the 76 Princeton Reverb caught my attention with some of the dynamics being showcased.

More than anything I just want to know how these models feel to play. Please let it be inspiring.

The pool?! Dude, that is so passé.

Holy crap those sound great. The new AC30 and, particularly, the Bassman are doing things i could never fully replicate on the OG Helix - and the new Princeton sounds just as good.

So, when is the inevitable "Sound Samples | Hi Gain" dropping?

Except the 5 watt tweed… muffled and fizzy

Have you ever played a real one?

Can't help but not thinking of "Musicians Friend" everytime I see those letters

 

[Lysander]

Except the 5 watt tweed… muffled and fizzy

...so, just like a real Fender Champ, you say?

I suppose if you want the realism to go away, you could crank up the hype knob on the stadium you don’t buy?
