The Positive Grid Spark was one of the unarguable entries on our list of the Greatest Gear of the 21st Century. It wowed in its original format, quickly dominating the smart amp space. We’ve since had the Spark 2, Spark Mini, Spark LIVE and even Spark Neo Core headphones taking the concept into new forms of all shapes and sizes. However, Steve Vai maintains good things come in small packages...
To say Positive Grid’s Spark Mini is essential to Vai would be an understatement. “I carry one in my luggage at all times,” he says. “I have one for my dressing room and one on the bus. Before every show, I use it to warm up, and I’ve even used it in the studio directly into my DAW.”
