I've got the amp. Just wanted to know your settings to get that tone.
Can’t find you tone man. Try to search Karl Golden nothing show up with that specific search and when info to Clapton can’t find your name 😅 please help. I really like the tone you mimic there
One of the biggest issues I have with sticking with practice is getting a tone that inspires me to play. That's a major reason why I pre-ordered one of these amps. If I can get something similar to a band I really like, and if I'm trying to learn their songs, the tone I'm hearing is just positive reinforcement. I don't really want to spend the time tackling the learning curve of using guitar VST's in a DAW.
Tone is in the fingers mostly my dude an amp won’t make you sound like slash or mark knofler or anyone else for that matter
@@danieljennings6144 Well duh you have to play it the same way. Try playing Sweet Child of Mine on an Ambient/Dreampop guitar setup. It won’t sound the same.
@@danieljennings6144 nonsense
You're a great player! Your tone is also good with this machine. You're the only demonstator that seems to know how to dial things in on this machine!
Check out The Studio Rats who have just started doing videos for this amp. Their adjustment of the stock out of the box high gain setting is awesome
Lol
I like that it displays scales to play along to and learn, because I sure as hell barely remember the harmonic minor scale and whatnot
The possibilities with this gear is fascinating and insane! Awesome showcase man!
Yeah man technology getting crazy now! 🎸🔥🤘
@@Karlgolden Ahh indeed man!
THANK YOU for starting your video with the nice tone samples, without interruption, and then your narrative later! Grabs one’s interest right off.
The delivery times are catching up. I ordered one in August and got it in under 3 weeks. Very cool amp. I just sold my THR10 and this is now taking it's place. It does a ton more and has better bass response than the Yamaha. Although the THR is a bit easier to use in some ways but I guess it's because I'm still learning the Spark.
Good review Karl, one of the best so far. Just got a blurb that they hit 10,000 units sold in pre-order. Looking forward to getting mine even more now.
Wow that’s crazy! It is a very impressive tool and reasonably priced so not really surprised 🤘🎸🔥
Awesome job on the review, one of the better ones available on TH-cam. Just waiting to get mine delivered, can’t wait to start testing it out.
This looks like so much fun. I preordered one. Thanks for the great demo!!!
This is so cool, man, I’m genuinely impressed with all the different tones you can get with this
It’s actually ridiculous and amazing practice amp

Glad I pre-ordered. Second Christmas in January!
Brilliant all round demo, put a lot of minds at ease here with clear & concise info. Thank you Karl!
Thank you Rob! Nice to have a positive comment! I get a lot of hate in the comments for issues people are having and for some unreason I am getting the backlash!? The amp is awesome and I personally had no issues so I don’t understand 🙈🙈🙈
Yeah no problem mate! I just think that something like this new bias/amp/app can be so frustrating in that if you forget one little thing, in the list of things you need to do in order to get up and running (eg.…I had everything A-ok but couldn’t get sound from the app....turns out it was the small volume knob which I had overlooked, was still on 0 setting) then it becomes frustrating, and you what people are like, they put a face to it etc etc. It’s handy to have someone to go through the same thing though so as to solve it together, definitely a plus. Being stuck here (Cheltenham) we’re back on lockdown so it’s the perfect time for spark! Keep safe buddy...Rob.
Best demo of this amp!
Thanks man! Makes it easy when it’s a great piece of gear
jammergreg
Why what do you not like about the other demos?
Owen Chase science channel, this is just my fave with lots of styles at intro! Nothing against others. Got it! Pulled the trigger on one!
Agreed!
my other guitar player has one and once it's mic'd its a beast that you can use as band amp with no problem...its awesome...can't wait to get one
Thanks for highlighting everything this amp does. I didn't realize the smart jam feature came up with a bass line, too - thought it was drums only.
Ordered mine on December, 2019. Got it yesterday and love it!
I ordered mine dec. 1 2019 and I still don't have it!
@@jelmeromero Sorry to hear that, the Spark is like the Stimulus check, some people still have not gotten it yet. The Spark are going for $600 on Ebay.
@@niceguyfory0u I finally got my Spark! So far so good. I noticed it sounds better to my ears with headphones. I also wish you could change cabinets/speaker models.
jelmeromero good for you, they are going for $650 on eBay. I got my headphone jack going to my PA system since it is not that loud.
@@niceguyfory0u Looks like I'll sell mine if I ever get it.
Just got my Spsrk in yesterday and so far so good. Did basic run through. Was up half the night. Can't wait to div into the app.
Best video on this by far! Pumped for my preorder
That's what I said as well. All other YT demos suck!
Great job showing us what this amp can do! Sounds amazing!
Bobby Williams it’s an impressive practice amp for sure 🤘🎸🔥
Great. Fucking. Demo!!! Karl you are the man!
Thanks so much man 🎸🤘🔥
Karl Golden I actually preordered it at $75 off. I have the AMPLIFi 75 and have reviewed it on my channel but this does more and I like the chords thing too. I think I’m going to keep it in the family room to noodle along with tv or just jam to my music collection.
You convinced me to get one. I use an Amplifi 75 mostly for practice and the 2013 iteration of bluetooth sucks so it's near impossible to tweak anything without a headache. This should be a good upgrade with even more features.
Brian interesting. I have an AMPLIFi 150 and have no problems with an IPhone 6S or iPad Air 2. I’ll be getting one if these for the living room, for practice,............if it’s ever released.
@@Tmidiman Mine is a pretty early model and at the time there were a ton of bluetooth complaints. I've even had the motherboard fail and I bought one and replaced it and still flakey.
Very cool demo finally. I love Bias Amp app but I've been frustrated there are no good third party reviews yet on this thing. Will be pressing preorder buy button in 3, 2 ...
Couple other questions - is this actually the same Bias Amp and Fx engine? Can you use the same library of tones etc from those or when it shows you typing in and searching tones is that a Spark-specific library?
Sophie Craze it must be from the existing library for them to be over 10k tones. The app to my knowledge isn’t officially released yet
It is NOT from the same bias FX or AMP. This will be exclusively from it's own Spark app. Read their FAQs
Try before you buy. Many people love these all in one units. To my ears there are subtle but detectable artifacts like crackling sounds in the distortion and a never fully clear clean sound. These things appear over time spent playing with them, once your ear picks them up you may have trouble ignoring the slight imperfections. I have bought top of the line state of the art app based processing units and found myself getting disappointed with their sound within weeks of using them.
Brian Oates this is not the final models to be shipped. The final models are being tweaked to improve the sounds even further 👌
Yeah, but for the price it is hard to beat. It is more than an amp though, the integration with the iPAD and downloading songs and having a backing band in a box to jam with you is amazing at the price point.
@@Karlgolden So I finally got my Spark. I was looking to see if I could find your patches, but nothing comes up on a search of ToneCloud. Am I doing something wrong?
Paul Davies interesting! I will contact the Spark guys. I had a demo model and App. I assumed the presets would have been carried over to the final app
@@Karlgolden Thanks! Love the vid by the way. I'm looking forward to getting some of those fine tones!
Man, you seem to be grabbing that neck awful hard for Green Day :P It was great meeting you and getting to chat at NAMM with CGS Mike. Liking the videos! Keep rockin'!
Remember how the original Pod way back in the late 90's pretty much did the same thing when teamed with it's excellent editor/librarian software and also the online portal to user-made tones. Just lacked power amp and speakers and some of the extra apps this has. And you would assume 20 + years of tweaking digital algorithms to create the sounds has improved, although recently their have been a spate of original Pod comparison vids and it still holds up decently particuarly in recordings.
Glad I found ya. Sounds great. Ordered a Spark last weekend
Can’t wait til this delivers , gonna be like Christmas morning circa 83’
How can i get that lead tone at 11:34 ? Awesome playing!
This does look interesting, awesome playing too!
I really want one of these
Best amp I ever owned playing for 25 years man. Just take it all in slowly and you will realize this things powerful.
It’s a lot of fun. It definitely packs ten times its value to say the least
Hey, Nice precise playing :-) Do you read music as well? I pre- ordered the spark amp awhile back. but if I'm correct they are developing an app for android users as I mostly wanted the accompany feature.
Will this amp do the following signature guitar tones. Clapton Cream/Bluesbreaker tones, Peter Green Bluesbreaker/Fleetwood Mac era, Hendrix, SRV, Kossoff Free, Leslie West Mountain. Of course this would be with the appropriate guitar.
yep just bought one.. can't hardly wait!
Wish this was already out. Daughter wanted an amp for Christmas and I didn't want to give her an IOU. settled on the Vox VTX20, but I think this will be in our house this year. May have to be a dad's day gift for me ;)! Such a cool concept!
I’d wait for it to be around a few years
Eeesh so many people jumpin on the preorder wagon I’m reading so many complaints for not receiving !
It'd be nice to see a Seether tone for cryin out loud !
I’ll stick to my Mesa Boogie triple rectifiers and Mark V ...BAMM ! 😎
Just a heads up to anyone looking to get their hands on this. Positive Grid is currently behind in manufacturing and delivery by a couple months. It says on their site that you'll get it by February 2020 but people on the forum's who ordered early November 2019 have been informed it may be April before they receive theirs. Be prepared to wait a while if you pre order.
They posted yesteray on their website that they shipped the first two runs of the spark, so I don't think that is true.
Alex Carvalho for people who ordered the super early bird. Those were very early orders. Oct November 2019. It says on their site if you ordered today you’ll get it February 2020 which is a lie based on conversations I and others have had with their support team. I ordered December 20 and it’s looking like end of March for me.
Here is the forum chat
forum.positivegrid.com/topic/3335/power-supporters-looking-like-april-for-us-disgraceful?page=1
@@theKid87 Holy shit... I was really thinking buying one, but seeing what is going on I may have to wait until the next year to get it shipped...
Alex Carvalho yeah. It’s deceitful for them to keep that Feb 2020 delivery date for new orders on their pre order page. I’m Just trying to let people know that because the company hasn’t been very communicative about the delays.
Pre-ordered mine too, and thanks for the great review man!
Hey also what was the tone you used in the final jam to that backing track?? Super smooth!
Wow...would make a great Christmas or Holiday gift for anyone...who plays guitar! Thanks for sharing! By the way...how do you get away with playing those songs without copywrite strikes? I'm curious to know as a new TH-camr myself! Thanks for sharing! 😎❤
I record everything from scratch and make my own medleys not full songs so I get less trouble! Still get the monetisation taken away which is why I have to do sponsored videos and Patreon 🤘
Sounds awesome bro!
Pocket Rockets thanks so much man!
Awesome playing!!!!
I'll try this on my electric violin, once I get mine on Feb.
You gonna play outside of Target?
How does it handle heavy 7-string/downtuned stuff? Is the bottom end relatively good, or lifeless when quiet/chokes when cranked up?
Hey man I don’t own a 7 string so I don’t know to be honest maybe some other reviewers may have tested
I guess it's no problem.since the.amp.handles.bass guitar.

I have a looper pedal but as most people know - if you record say a hi-gain riff and try to solo over it through the pedal it gets too muddled up & unusable. Do you know if it possible to pull this off with the Spark? Thanks for the VId!
I don’t know if I’m honest sorry
Thank you for this Review! I am gonna buy one now \m/
Lotta ifs with this amp if it's on preorder. Lotta questions...
You can physically turn the amp's knobs and the software will display the changes you make. But, do the amp's knobs physically move if you make changes in the app?
Also, the preset knob (the first one), aren't those first two selections just emulators of Bass and Acoustic guitars, not just recommended settings for when you plug in an Acoustic or Bass, but for when you plug in any instrument? I mean, I'm pretty sure neither my acoustic or Fishman sound-hole pickup has a chip in it to tell the amp what they are, considering those were manufactured over 30 and 10 years ago respectively. I'm pretty sure it modifies the sound of anything that sends a signal to it. Example: I think I could patch in a mic to modify a singer's vocal tracks.
Oooohhh, Question... if I did plug in a mic, does it have an emulator for a Healy Talk-Box so I can perform The Crüe's - Kickstart, or Frampton's - Do you feel? I'm really tired of the smell when cleaning out the tube and spit-valve on my classic unit if I forgot to brush my teeth before my last practice session. 😳
Having viewed all the various demos I could find on this, I don't THINK the knobs move in response to the app. Just vice-versa, as you noted.
Great overview Karl, chord charts for the song playing is cool, maybe tablature integration with ultimate- guitar or similar service will be forthcoming in the Spark app. Great playing and energy btw.
Great demo buddy 👍🏻⚡️🎸🔊⚡️⚡️⚡️
Just came across this. Thanks. Great playing too!
Great demo and Great Guitar Player !
Thank you so much
Great video!!! 2 questions. Are all the 10,000 preset tones available with amp purchase or to get all the benifits of virtual band, chord finder, does it require upgrading? Do you need any or all the bias plugins to utilize all presets or will they be grayed out if you do not have the extra plugins?
Thank you for your help. I pre ordered after watching this video.
you have everything with the purchase. I just got mine and there aren't any grey'd out amps, fx etc.
@@jelmeromero thank you!
hi man! nice demo. is there a built-in looper in that amp?
Hey man I don’t think so. You can loop backing tracks and things
biasfx in and of itself has a looper so you should be able to with the ipad i think
Much better delivery times ! Ordered mine in August 2020 , got it in exactly two weeks . I know ! I was shocked too after hearing all the horror stories of Months of waiting.
Great to hear!
I’m one step closer to cancelling my Yamaha THr 30 backorder. They just can’t get their stuff together and this product is half the price and looks a lot more fun.
Dear Karl- great video! Many thanx!
Me and a lot of ppl wonder how we can find your tones on the ToneCloud as nothing comes up when I search for Karl Golden. Have you perhaps removed ’em?
All the best?
Hey man unfortunately I don’t know. I uploaded them at the time but I had to give the amp to another TH-camr (Sophie Burrell) - if she still has it they are probably still on that device!
Are Bluetooth LE pedals like AirTurn or irig BlueBoard supported to switch between patches? And if so, does the papal work directly with the amp or is the spark app required?
Seriously by far the best demo of the spark amp on TH-cam, you are the only channel to show us how the smart jam feature actually works ,I must say this is very impressive, however still a few questions before I pull the trigger on this amp,is the app FREE??? And also does this amp have a metronome and or a looper.
Great review,
Cheers,
Tony
tony mediati hey Tony I would assume the app would be free with the amp. Send the guys a Facebook message they seem to reply on there
@@Karlgolden yes I did and it comes free with the amp ,I just ordered and scheduled to arrive by late February, thanks mate 🤟😎👍
tony mediati You can download the app now and get to look at most thing on it without the amp. You just need to use the skip button on each startup page to get in. You can see how much is available. It’s fantastic.
@@mikegibsonincognito4580 awesome ,I'll check it out ,my amp should have arrived late February ,then they replied it should arrive late March ,now I sent 4 emails with no reply,if I get no news by end of March ,I think I'll cancel
hey man great video indeed!!! questions:
1. if you use it without the app, does it sound like a normal practice amp, with clean, crunch, hi gain etc voicings, and use just knobs, or you have only the presets available?
2. is it only 4 presets, or 4 per voicing, like 4 for clean, 4 for crunch etc?
Would you recommend this amp for metal
It’s pretty good for all styles as a practice amp
Such a great video that gets me even more stoked to get my Spark which hopefully will ship soon! With the included software/app is there any reason I should get Bias Fx 2 for my Mac for recording or will I be good to go with just the Spark?
Thanx a lot for this useful video tutorial. May I know which brand is your red guitar with balck pickguard and Seymour duncan pckups? Thanx a lot in advance
Shergold Guitars 🤘 amazing guitars for money
The video Post says Get 10,000 tones With Spark . . . . . . yet you spend almost 4 minutes playing (which was excellent, really loved it) but I still don't know how to download the tones from the "tone cloud" which was the whole reason for choosing your video. Excellent skills Karl, but for me, the most important info was the very first thing you said was the info provided.
9:19
Thanks for showing us the back of the amp!
No worries!
Yo!!! That sounded amazing!!
10,000 tones? I would be thrilled with 5 awesome tones. Give me the perfect comfortably numb, and sorrow tone, and I'm in! Of course that is probably not realistic, but cool tool for sure.
What sounds, amps, effects actually come with the amp without spending more money
Nice jams! Where did you get the iPad stand?
Hercules stands
Thank you
So everyone I've seen that shows how to use this app keeps showing how you can find cool songs to play along with or import your songs and it'll show you how to play then. Then the app just displays the chords and the reviewer plays the riffs his memorized over the chords. Pretty frustrating.
Wow Just In Time For Christmas 🤘🤘
I was one of the first 100 that pre-order this Amp in fact with not really clear clue what I am buying or What I will get, I think if BIAS FX is incredible this AMP should be too. but after this video that show all the gadgets, very happy to order them. thanks for video
Did you receive your amp yet?
Still selling preorder 224.00
Great Video, Thanks for sharing just got mine today March 11,2020 after 3-4 months. Too late now 10:30 PM, so tomorrow I will try. I mostly wanted the smart jam. Hopefully the android app is available.
Does it chug?!
Hi, great video, just ask few missin point: 1) bit resolution and latency for the interface ? 2) possible to use footswitch and volume/wha pedals ? 3) smart functions for the songs only if connected on the web ? 4) possible to save the chords found ? possible to export as midifiles the jam band ? 5) via bluetooh, having two speakes, possible to listen in stereo ? 6) wich is the main difference in tone quality between the same sound recoded via mike and interface, some cabinet emulation fixed or on/off option ? Thanks much, CIAO :-)
WAS THAT SONG THE INTRO THAT INDY MOGUL USED BACK IN THE DAY???
This is only amp that tweeked my interest from my katana air
thr and vox too limited.
Just a couple of things missing thst means i wouldnt bother
1. cant change sound chain to get any sound i want.
2 no in depth eq like parametric to fine tune.
3. only 1 effect pedal at time along with a drive.
4. Not wireless which i love on my air
But close to msking me get one to side by side agsinst my air as i did eith thr30 and vox which i got rid of both.
I would even forgo one less pedal slot on this if it had a parametric eq that like the air could be moved sbout to fine tune sound and be able to alter sound chain and if it was wireless and no using a 3rd party isnt as good as being able to just slot transmitter into sir and its charging.
But what i love about this amp is same as air that any downloaded presets are put on in component form and can be used as a starting point unlike thr30 and vox which are literslly click a sound presets.
So p. Grid add a parametric eq. Add sound chain moving and an in built wireless and i would get one
I got a THR based wholly on a tone I heard a guy on youtube had and he was kind enough to respond that he got it with only using his THR. It was ridiculously awesome. I tried and tried but could not come close. Don't know what kind of magic he had, but I ended up sending it back. So sad
Does the app play well with Andriod/PC?
The only thing stopping me from buying one is that i live in the UK so if anything goes wrong with it i would need to ship it all the way back to the States which would be incredibly time consuming and expensive. As it stands it's already $270 so to factor in possible import duties would make this even more expensive. Think I'll just stick with plugging my guitars into my PC and use BiasFX 2.
Peace
How do you change effects while a backing track is playing and you are jamming? For example the Fractal Audio units have scenes with effects for each of the footswitches but how do you get this effect on the Spark Positive Grid? For example if I play U2 with lots of effects how would I switch between them while simultaneously using a backing track live?
I need an answer to this particular question. Thanks.
I seriously wanted this video to keep going! Great job dude
Hi Karl. I finally have a spark amp and have only been able to find your Green Day Tone using the Spark Amp App (Tone Cloud). The others do not appear to be on it. I have searched using your name as well as the artists name. Do you know if they are still on it, or can you re-upload? They sound mega and cant wait to try them. Thanks!
Great review Karl. When I grow up I want to play like you and I’m 57!, Hey what was the name of the last song you played. Thanks
Does it have a looper function? Especially for the song creator where you strummed chords and it came up with a beat and bass.
Why would it not take wah pedals well? All it is, is a tone control. Question is, will it take overdrives/boosts well? Is there no expression pedal capabilities of the Spark?
I like this a lot, but I have one question.are the amp models included with purchase price or do you also have to pay a per mod, or monthly or annual fee for a subscription ?
It's all included.
I was thinking of buying one but I heard a ton of people that pre-ordered were told there was a delay (not the good kind). and they way things are looking ( I doubt these are made in the states) it will be a while before we actually get them.
I've been waiting five months
China I believe!
Man. You play amazing good sir..
I just made my pre at $224 yesterday. So exciting!
Are there tones available for Clapton Bluesbreakers Beano tone, Clapton Cream, Peter Green Fleetwood Mac and Bluesbreakers and Kossoff Free tone.
C’mon, you can’t get everything
Received mine 2 days ago. Just can't stop using it. Yesterday I was on it all day and into the night till 1am in the morning till my step daughter sent me a text from her room saying " Rick it's 1am in the morning. Time to stop!" 🙄😇🤟
Really Great video! Can you play "along" with any Spotify, TH-cam or other song app..at the same time? Can you play "along" with an external device, mp3 player, phone etc.? What song is that at end you are riffing on? Is that included song, app or what? Your video is the only video I have seen where someone actually shows " the back"!!!! Wow! An AUX input!!! There it is. Thanks
How does it handle playing at low volume? Is the quality of the tone consistent even when played very low? I'm trying to decide whether to go for this bad boy or the new Yamaha THR wireless 🤔
Sounds like your playing at full volume. They separated the volume and signal path gain so it sounds the same just lower volume. Because, well, thats what volume is....
@@kingfisher7960 that's very helpful. Many thanks for sharing that information! 👍
How well does it take real pedals?
Which high gain amps modeled sound closest to original?
What is the backing track you're jamming to at the 11:40 mark??? That sound so perfect! 😭🤘
Unfortunately I can’t remember but I did start a backing track channel with my own tracks if that’s your thing 🤟 www.TH-cam.com/killerbackingtracks
How well does this amp replicate the valve tones compared to say the Boss Katana or the Blackstar Silverline deluxe? I love all the options and gizmos, but I want something that truly captures that valve attack, response, and chiming highs of the valve amplifiers. I like the Blackstar Silverline because it allows you to select the different valve styles, such as EL84, 6V6, KT88, and so on, but it is extremely limiting in its available effects. The Boss Katana Artist MK2 is a bit more pricey but delivers the goods as far as tube characteristics, but again it does not allow you to select the tube type just the gain style of the amp and then a boatload of the best stompboxes ever created.
I understand that we are probably comparing limes to pears here. Still, I am looking for an all-in-one that genuinely delivers that high-end sound that valve amplification delivers without the cost of a valve amp and then all the effects. I prefer the Silverline over the Katana MK2 standard series, but the Artist MK2 100w is insane sounding, and unless you knew what amp someone is playing through, you would not know that it was a valve replication. I was just curious what your thoughts would be on it. Great Video!
@Boondoggle I get that they are not direct competitors but I am curious about modeling accuracy of tonal quality and response. The Spark has lots of tube amp models to select from the Katana uses the roland Blues Cube tube replication technology. I was curious because it would be an awesome little home studio rig if it delivers the tones, attack, and response.
Les Paul Deluxe Gold Top...dream guitar.
are these preset ready to use for free (standard within the basic app when you purchase the device??)
Hi, can you tell which one you would prefer between the Katana Air and Spark? I doesn't exist a comparison between they two. but as Katana user you could give an opinion. Thanks
Hey Josh I have never played the Katana Air so I can't say
Awesome 👍 I have Amplifi TT, this goes a few steps more
