Put simply, Spirit is made to inspire guitarists to perform at their best.<br><br><strong>Innovative power amp sagging control<br></strong>Much of the mesmerizing tones of the great clean, crunch and lead guitar sounds is down to a drop in power supply voltage when spiking transient signals hit the output stage hard. Or, put more simply, sagging! Now, for the first time in an analog amp, Black Spirit 200 lets you adjust the amount of power amp sag and dial in creaminess and growl regardless of the volume level.<br><br><strong>Channels and FX<br></strong>Black Spirit 200 Floor features four channels that take you on a trip through all the trademark tones of the last 60 years.

Four inspirational, strictly analog channels plus a complete range of built-in digital reverb, delay and modulation effects make it a perfect all-in-one solution, while a sophisticated FX Loop lets you connect external FX units. And it’s all accessible directly and with the trusted handling you expect from a real guitar amplifier.<br><br><strong>Save your favorite tones with the push of a button<br></strong>All parameters apart from the Master Volume can be stored in up to 128 presets and recalled any time you want!
