Four Genre-defining Thrash Metal Amps

Line 6's Metallurgy: Thrash is an amplifier and effects plug-in designed to replicate the hyper-aggressive guitar tones and frantic riffs from the golden era of Metallica, Slayer, Megadeth, and Anthrax. This plug-in sports four replications of genre-defining amplifiers, while also giving you tools to craft your own unique sounds for the future. Metallurgy: Thrash comes loaded with a wealth of effects that Sweetwater guitarists find perfect for injecting some character and texture into your sound, including ample overdrives to push your amp’s front end, a classic chorus, a vintage-style digital delay, automatic double tracking, and even a polyphonic pitch shifter. Plus, each set in the Metallurgy collection boasts unbelievably authentic tones, aided by an incredible amount of speaker and microphone configuration options, including the ability to load up to two of your favorite third-party IRs to sub in for the standard mics.

Tones that will seek and destroy

Each collection in the Line 6 Metallurgy series comes loaded with four genre-specific amplifier types, with adjustable speaker, microphone, and IR setups to tweak your tone to taste. Metallurgy: Thrash sports three replications of hyper-aggressive amplifiers that defined the thrash metal era, plus the Jazz Rivet 120 that captures the pristine cleans and chorus tones of Metallica’s moodier moments. The Cali IV produces all the fat, saturated gain tones of the classic California combo amp that served as its inspiration, while the Placater Dirty offers a modern boutique spin on the vintage thrash formula. Although the Das Benzin certainly delivers the thrash, it’s designed after a German boutique head with a brutal tone that’s found a home across the entire metal spectrum.

Give your tone some character

Metallurgy: Thrash comes with a wide range of different effects, including several punchy overdrives, wah, vintage-voiced digital delay, chorus, and automatic double tracking to fatten up your sound. Each set in the Metallurgy collection also includes a variety of utility effects, such as a parametric EQ, a noise gate, and a chromatic tuner, allowing this collection to excel as both a standalone program and a supplemental plug-in. What's more, four pre-amplifier effect slots and three post-amplifier slots allow an incredible amount of sonic layering for guitarists who love to experiment.

Most of the guitarists here at Sweetwater remember well the first time we heard a Line 6 POD - that strange kidney-bean-shaped gadget that totally rocked the guitar world. As one of the world's largest Line 6 dealers, we've had a first-row seat to every groundbreaking release they've come out with. In fact, many of us gig out with Helix, their latest multi-effects pedal, or their modeling amps every week. What's more, Line 6 brings the same innovative approach to their live sound equipment that's made their guitar gear so popular. Whether you're looking for the perfect guitar rig to cover a wide range of styles or fantastically affordable digital wireless, ask your Sales Engineer about Line 6.
