What the models actually are
Line 6 rename every amp, cab and pedal. Here is the whole translation, and how to read it.
07 · 5 min
“Brit 2203” is a Marshall JCM-800. Line 6 publish the translation for all 440 models themselves — it is just buried in the back of a PDF.
Why the names are strange
Line 6 cannot use another manufacturer's trademark to sell a model of their amp, so every model gets a new name. The effect is that a new owner scrolling the list has no idea what they are looking at.
The names are not random, though. They usually rhyme with, pun on, or describe the original, which is why they start to make sense once you have seen a few.
Two things to know before you search
First, “Nrm”, “Brt” and “Jump” are channels of one amp, not three different amps. Brit Plexi Nrm and Brit Plexi Brt are the normal and bright inputs of the same Marshall Super Lead, and Jump is the two patched together with a short cable.
Second, “Legacy” means carried over from an older Line 6 device for preset compatibility. Where two models look like the same effect, the non-Legacy one is the newer algorithm.
Search it
Type what you see on the device, or type the real amp. Both work.
All 440 models.
