My v2 spark is on the way. I currently have the v1. I love 'em. I worked for a company that helped start the desk top amp category and was pretty involved with the development and launch of that product. It was successful and sounded great at that time. I've heard them all... it was my world for quite some time. The Spark wins all around. Sonically, functionally, the form, the support... the whole ecosystem just works. Can't wait to dive into the updates.
One can not describe the enormous sound of the Spark without being in the room with it, very amazing, I have let a lot players hear mine and they are genuinely impressed once they hear it in person.
To me, spark is priced perfect and is the perfect at home guitar amp. I’ve purchased a few to give to friends and family. Love em, and can’t say enough about them.
I use the spark go everyday and also ordered the spark 2 amp to keep by the couch. They are so much value for what you get and are wonderful option if want to plug your headphones in and rockout through the night. Have barely touched my expensive amps because its so easy to set these up for a practice session and make great bluetooth speakers for music.
I've been a huge cheerleader for the Spark 40 since it first came out, and I already preordered this one. Was a nice touch that they offered existing Spark owners a reduced upgrade price special, too.
Let’s just hope it doesn’t have as many issues as the first one. Mine is always glitching and have to find constant fixes. It gets frustrating when all you want to do is play and it decides to take a shit on you.
@@Newbomb_Turks_Punch yeah, mine developed this ridiculously loud pop when I turn it off, and for a week it would randomly turn on a weird tremolo effect on every preset, then that just fixed itself.
Great demo Mr Riffs! My Spark 2 was delivered on Saturday over here in the UK and I"m working my away around it at the mo. What is amazing is how they've got the spacial effects like delay and reverb to work so effectively and realistically for example, I was playing around with the Ambient presets and the delays on those were so realistic I thought I had an echo in my room. It wasn't, it was that the speakers have been designed and positioned so well that you really can get a full sound out of this small box. Cheers!
Bought my Spark 2 on the initial roll out and received it a few days ago. Just started playing around with it and absolutely LOVE it! I have only scratched the surface of what it can do but it has made playing fun again! Can’t wait to dig into it more!
I like that various styles of music are being run through the spark 2. It’s a fair chunk of change to get one delivered to Canada. The upgrade offer is decent. For me it’s about learning the gear to get the best out of it.
Bought a Spark go and was running it out of my Headrush FR FR speakers and it sounded great. Didn't like fiddling with the controls on the phone screen. Bought Spark 2 and I am loving it so far.
The original has been my daily amp for the past few years, and I've been using my spark 2 for 3 days now and I must say it sounds much better, especially with heavy distortion, and gritty sounds. Can't speak to much of the software features but for me it was worth the upgrade tone alone
Ah damn, I was hoping you could upload your own IRs to this one. I don’t think I’ll rush half as much to get the new one, but the quality of life improvements are nice.
I have zero experience with the Spark, and I used to be against digital amps. Hearing it with you playing that Vintage Music Man... Makes me want a Spark 2. I am convinced that anything will sounds good with it.
I have had the Spark 2 for 2 weeks now, I have never had something like this before, I was truly amazed with this product, and that I could ask the new Ai feature to give me the sound of Comfortably numb to get a very similar Davdd Gilmour tone or the Somewhere in time distorted chorus lead tone from Iron Maiden and get very similar sound without having to tweak or create my own signal chains, SO AMAZING. I am so happy i ordered this speaker and the battery pack accessory with 8-12 hours of rechargeable time. So I can play outside with friends 50 watts of battery power, very loud and amazing sound / tone. Every guitar player and bass player should have the Positive Grid Spark 2 =)
I have the original and I can make it loop but it takes the air step and a tech wizard to make it happen so I was happy they added a more functional looper, might have to upgrade!
I use the spark as a BT speaker to play along with, but it's awesome as a little practice amp. The recto model isn't bad, you can shape the tone some with the app.
I like my spark. But I want to get a tube amp and start collecting pedals. I just have no idea where to start or how much money I should spend to get the sound I'm looking for. I always paid a lot for guitars and cheaped out on amps and then bought multi effect pedals.
The one thing that I really hope they addressed in this new one is the glitchy volume and tone issues that happen with my original Spark 40. I’ve done a couple firmware updates and it still will occasionally change volume level and the tone will change randomly from one power on to the next. Sometimes I’ll turn it on and it sounds louder and clearer and feels inspiring to play and other times it’s way more quiet and feels like it’s missing something almost like if you were to turn down your guitar volume control. Definitely not the guitar since any guitar I plug in when that happens sounds off.
I was hoping for some advice from those who’d know; I got a Boss Katana Mk 2 and a RC5 looper based on advice from my guitar teacher, which I use as my main gear when practicing. I had a Spark Mini before, and loved it because it was so easy to use. I find the Boss products to be not very user friendly, often a bit frustrating. Would it be a mistake to sell them and change over to this new Spark 2?
We need folders to organize sounds. I like creating different sounds for different guitars, would love to label folder by my guitar names. Or by band names if I want to do covers
I own a Spark version one. I use it 'clean' and add stomp boxes for performing and it's really great. I didn't care for this demonstration 'cuz it was almost entirely 'metal' demonstration on it. The version 1 has too much bass that you can't really dial out unless you have a stomp box equalizer. The blue tooth audio that I play sounds terrible on that version one. Apparently the Version 2 has less of that bass.
Ive got the og spark 40 and the mini. I love them both. Yes the sound does leave a little to be desired, but its good enough, you can approximate pretty much anything without annoying the neighbours and play along to stuff your from YT or spotify or whatever.. Theres a couple of issues with them, i dialled down the bass a bit on my 40 by stuffing a sock in thr centre hole, and with two devices sometimes get a pairing issue where pins are not right. But overall very happy with thrm. Adding a looper is good but i dont see too many reasons to upgrade jist yet.
I'm new to Spark (and new to playing with an amp in general) but am really enjoying the amp! Fun to mess around with the tone and try out different presets. Haven't gotten around to using the smart loop stuff yet, but looks really cool. One issue I'm having is with the search function, which I think used to be called ToneCloud. I want to search for specific tones or see other people's popular tones since I'm new to playing electric. I don't really know how to find these, so typically just play the same preset which seems like a waste given all the functionality! Also, I don't really understand how the physical knobs and digital knobs interact. If I change something on the app, will it overwrite what's set on the amp (e.g. I'm playing a preset and change gain on amp or knob, which one takes effect)? If anyone has any tips on how to find good tones, or anything about setting up the amp tone in general, please let me know. Thanks and great video
The New Black by Every Time I Die but transposed in a different tuning, I think I came to the comment section to comment the song's name, and I saw your comment. Figured I'd help out XD
first spark had too much bass. but i see ways of addressing that with the eq pedal etc. sounded pretty massive for a practice unit, di to a desk for jams or small coffee shop gigs etc, I'd be tempted to give it a go.
Seems like a good follow up to the original Spark, just not sure where it fits in to the current market. Great tones and demo as always. Who am i kidding? I'll end up with one
i heard the speakers were the biggest issue.....i know these are supposed to be better but i wish they would make a premium version of these with some crazy good speakers
I got the spark one. I had preordered it months ahead of time on a count a cause a, I suffer from G.A.S. Well, let me just put it this way. The next gen white model came out 10 days before Mine even arrived. Disappointed not, Furious? Absolutely. I had gotten my passport because I was going to make a sea assault on Brittany. I had plans to fight my way up the Thames and overland to at least the Brew House in Oxford near the castle mound. So spoke the wizard from his mountain home. The vision of his wisdom means we will never be alone. And As such I became embroiled in more important things. Chasing women, stealing gold and other finer things.
How does spark 2 compare to Hotone Pulze? At the moment I have a spark 1 and a Yamaha thr 10 ii. The heavy distortion in the spark is so bad compared to the thr that I don't want go for this again. Also liked some deep delay in in hotone review so can't decide where to go next.
Heavy Distortion is Bad? They didn’t have a metal zone for You? The Rectifier, Engls, LANEY even! I still use Jam Up and it destroys if Uou know what Your doing
Ils devraient améliorer la connectique en ajoutant du Midi pour pouvoir changer de preset et ajouter une prise pour un haut parleur extérieur. Sinon c'est un excellent ampli.
You get what you pay for. I have the Spark 1, and have not played through it for a year or more. There is a reason for that. Nearly every household has a computer so just buy yourself an interface, Reaper and get yourself some free amp sims and IR's for less than half the price with 100% better sound quality. Fluff says he "Loves the Spark product line", but how often does, or did he do a video on the Spark line...? I reckon I can count on 2 fingers or less.
It's a cool idea, saves a lot of space and money over using physical pedals. But I can see them continuously milking you for more money through new pedal releases which you have to pay to unlock (such as that Jimi Hendrix pack) and at the end of the day it's all emulated and if they kill support it might just not work anymore at some point. Also, the search function seems to show results based off number of downloads by other users of that configuration. Those people might have downloaded a setup because it has a clever title, not because it's any good.
I have the mini and my local guitar center just stocked up im about to return mine bc its so bassy and muddy i love the idea but it sounds like trash with my prs ce and i know this guitar sounds absolutely amazing with other amps
I have a love/hate thing going on with Positive Grid. I love their software. Mostly like the Riff because I can travel with it, but it picks up all RF noise like a sponge and can't function without a phone or laptop connection. And I hate that they won't create an amp head for a cabinet, or an amp that doesn't require a cell phone to use. I don't like my phone having extra functions beyond being a phone.
I feel the same way, although you can set the tones you want and then you won’t have to use your phone each time you turn it on. The Spark 2 is supposed to work with the optional foot switch without being connected to a phone too, plus you can run it all on rechargeable batteries. I’m hoping it’s less frustrating than the original because it sounds pretty good for what it is.
Im not opposed to digital amps (love my catalyst) but anything so reliant on an app is a no for me, aside from the menu diving not being something i like, these amps are landfill the moment the app stops being supported. Apps should be limited to fine tuning, not be essential for use.
Did you have any issues with bluetooth connection being disconnected all the time? Thats what I m having atm with my spark 2. It really sucks. Moreover no support so far from positive grid - that sucks even more.
Yes, I received my Spark 2 and was able to use it for a week and a half. Went to use it and couldn’t get it to power on at all. I filled out the form for customer support. It took about a week to hear from them. without doing any troubleshooting on it. It started working. I put in a formal request to send it back for a replacement or a new one. I have sent it back to PG. It’s about a week,I have not heard any word from them.
Think anyone could help me? I'm in the Market for a portable amp like this but I'm torn between pre-ordering this or getting the Boss Katana Air EX, like there has to be a reason the Air EX is still retailing at $500 while this is nearly half that and not even released yet
The controller only works with the app. And allows all incoming calls. And most phones timeout is 15 to 30 mini a major issue why on earth would they make it like that.
The looper is useless unless all you do is in 4/4 and fixed numbers of bars. Want to do something in 7/8? Ain't happening... Bach and Beethoven didn't write everything in 4/4. 6/8, 3/4, forget it. And the app is just as Buggy as for the first one. I have to reboot the amp often whenever it resets. Wanna gig with it? Bad idea
As a Spark One owner, this new unit is pretty underwhelming. It still has the outdated Bias FX inspired interface, and the amp models don't sound noticeably better.
For a practice amp where you just need a "good enough" tone it would definitely do the job. You can clearly hear the modelling is way behind most other platforms though.
im very new to guitar and I just got this amp. but i gotta say i dont kno most of what any of this vid was showing off. I guess i wont be utilizing the best for now

Came for the amp, stayed for the playing. You’re a f*****g riff machine dude!
Although I'm not a metal fan I did find your video of using the Sparc 2 really good and informative. Thanks!🎸
Right On Ryan...Time 'IS' Just a Construct!
Bought my Spark 2 on the initial roll out and received it a few days ago. Just started playing around with it and absolutely LOVE it! I have only scratched the surface of what it can do but it has made playing fun again! Can’t wait to dig into it more!
Does it have a small adapter/computer type power cord or the full size three prong to three prong power cord?
checking your mixes on as many different devices as you can is The Way. cool demo, man. rock on 🤘
Got mine today Big improvement over the 40 much more balance tone and no more boomy bass.
I like that various styles of music are being run through the spark 2. It’s a fair chunk of change to get one delivered to Canada. The upgrade offer is decent. For me it’s about learning the gear to get the best out of it.
Thanks, My Spark 2 arrived today. Can't wait to try it out
I pre ordered spark2. Giving my gen 1 to my son. Just good amps
Mine should be delivered by the end of the week, I cannot wait to play around with this thing!
That EQ should be a modulation slot. The EQ is just one of the pedals you can choose. Should have chorus, phase, flange, unitibe ect.
Wow, that is nice . What a great little amp. Definitely suggesting to some peeps I know looking for a 1st amp. Thanks Fluff🤘🏻🤘🏻
Every Time I Fluff.. hell yeah
Bought a Spark go and was running it out of my Headrush FR FR speakers and it sounded great. Didn't like fiddling with the controls on the phone screen. Bought Spark 2 and I am loving it so far.
Got mine today! Much improved version...very addictive
thank you.
I ordered one after watching this review 🙌
Thank you! Such a Great Review! Now I Want One!🎼🎸
Best demo I've seen so far on the Spark 2. Looking for some details on how to use the looper function.
The original has been my daily amp for the past few years, and I've been using my spark 2 for 3 days now and I must say it sounds much better, especially with heavy distortion, and gritty sounds. Can't speak to much of the software features but for me it was worth the upgrade tone alone
Great vid. This sounds like it would make a nice table top unit for playing at home.
That intro about time being a construct is cracking me up 😂
Ah damn, I was hoping you could upload your own IRs to this one. I don’t think I’ll rush half as much to get the new one, but the quality of life improvements are nice.
I'm still feeling my way around it but thus failing to get a high gain lead sound i actually like.
I have zero experience with the Spark, and I used to be against digital amps.

How does the Spark 2 react/ sound with physical guitar effect pedals in front of the device?
So basically this is a review of the Spark app. Would have been nice to hear what the actual amp sounds like in the room using its speakers, and mics.
Sounds better than the first but all the menu diving reminds me of why I sold it in the first place.
marginally better
@@alexanderwald2046 yeah I agree with you
I have one on order. I have the mini and like it ok.
I was hoping for some advice from those who’d know; I got a Boss Katana Mk 2 and a RC5 looper based on advice from my guitar teacher, which I use as my main gear when practicing.

Can you plug a microphone into the amp to go busking
is a connection to the iPhone necessary???
7:27 IF EVERYTHING I DO IS WROOONG THEN BY GOD I DO IT RIIIGHT
What was the tone you used on your mix example? That was pretty amazing.
Should I go for Boss Katana 50 gen 3 or the Spark 2?
Ive got the og spark 40 and the mini. I love them both. Yes the sound does leave a little to be desired, but its good enough, you can approximate pretty much anything without annoying the neighbours and play along to stuff your from YT or spotify or whatever..

It be nice if the speaker does not disable when plugging it in the cab version.
Was that a song played in the beginning starting around 3:30 or just cool Fluffage?
The better sound, drums, and additional 4 presets are great. Now there is no
need to waste an effects spot with an eq.

Holy crap. I was not expecting that.
What’s the song you were jamming around 7:30? It’s gonna bother me that I can’t think of it.
The New Black by Every Time I Die but transposed in a different tuning, I think
I came to the comment section to comment the song's name, and I saw your comment. Figured I'd help out XD
are we hearing the speaker or the direct signal?
they never do that with these mini amps, or you'd never buy it
Does spark 2 have some similar to Katana when you can limit it's power? (From 50 to 25 and 0,5 W)??
first spark had too much bass. but i see ways of addressing that with the eq pedal etc. sounded pretty massive for a practice unit, di to a desk for jams or small coffee shop gigs etc, I'd be tempted to give it a go.
Did you record with the Amp mic'd? Or the direct output. Headphone jack. Sounds great. I have Boss katana air. Wonder how it compares
Hi disappointed w my spark 2 so far.....I also have a katana air which delivers anazing sounds w minimal fuss.
Seems like a good follow up to the original Spark, just not sure where it fits in to the current market. Great tones and demo as always. Who am i kidding? I'll end up with one

How does spark 2 compare to Hotone Pulze?
At the moment I have a spark 1 and a Yamaha thr 10 ii.

It's a cool idea, saves a lot of space and money over using physical pedals.

I have just recieved mine and ngl all of my presets sound worse than v1
I think I might have to tweak that
I have the mini and my local guitar center just stocked up im about to return mine bc its so bassy and muddy i love the idea but it sounds like trash with my prs ce and i know this guitar sounds absolutely amazing with other amps
I have a love/hate thing going on with Positive Grid. I love their software. Mostly like the Riff because I can travel with it, but it picks up all RF noise like a sponge and can't function without a phone or laptop connection.

I love everything about this amp except the handle. It just looks like a big floppy afterthought.
Those AI 🤖 tones are useless all sound muddy . But they amp is so versatile you can make your own sound so well
I was really hoping they'd add a country preset.
You can search the tone cloud and find hundreds
Saw the popup add - instant nope for me
So it only does heavy metal?
Don't think he no much about eq
The controller only works with the app. And allows all incoming calls. And most phones timeout is 15 to 30 mini a major issue why on earth would they make it like that.
Too much bottom end and glitches is why I sold my first. Hardware review please, the app is the same….
sounds like a zoom 505
The looper is useless unless all you do is in 4/4 and fixed numbers of bars. Want to do something in 7/8? Ain't happening... Bach and Beethoven didn't write everything in 4/4. 6/8, 3/4, forget it. And the app is just as Buggy as for the first one. I have to reboot the amp often whenever it resets. Wanna gig with it? Bad idea
each preset sounded like farts, just different kinds of farts. never spending another single dime on anything positive grid.
As a Spark One owner, this new unit is pretty underwhelming. It still has the outdated Bias FX inspired interface, and the amp models don't sound noticeably better.
The first one was to much bass. Did the sock mod into the speaker cab and this sounds the same.
For a practice amp where you just need a "good enough" tone it would definitely do the job. You can clearly hear the modelling is way behind most other platforms though.
I don't agree.
i really hated the original spark, just sounded like a 90s zoom pedal. So does this.
im very new to guitar and I just got this amp. but i gotta say i dont kno most of what any of this vid was showing off. I guess i wont be utilizing the best for now
