Save four presets directly to your headphones using the Spark app, which provides you with a massive range of 33 amplifiers and 43 effects to explore, along with countless user-generated presets available via ToneCloud. Furthermore, the Spark NEO Core still boasts a dedicated Bluetooth channel for music streaming, powerful backing-track functions to sharpen your practice sessions, a built-in tuner, and cutting-edge AI-driven tools like Spark AI and Auto Chords.

Reviews

Nice Practice Tool
Super easy to set up and use. I keep them next to the couch so I can put them on and start practicing silently in a few seconds. They are very comfortable and block out other noise, even though they don't have active noise canceling. Guitar is connected to the phones with a cable, but the signal processing is done wirelessly through your phone, yet I haven't noticed any sort of lag. And as always, my sales rep at Sweetwater was great.

Best Practice Tool Ever Owned
These are so easy to use right out of the box, and the guitar amp models are great. An added plus is that the headphones are excellent in their own right.
Does not include a cable

These $ headphones do not include a cable to connect them to your guitar. This is literally what they are for but they do not include a lightweight cable! Your only option is to connect your heavy instrument cable to them, which makes them VERY uncomfortable to wear and gives you yet another bulky item to carry.


Fumble at the one yard line.
