Check price of Line 6 Variax on Sweetwater - imp.i114863.ne...
The first thing you will notice about the line 6 variax guitar is that there are not a lot of reviews out there.
We really do not know why but it is an underrepresented guitar when it comes to reviewers, we think that it may be one of the best variax guitars at this price point.
Some Stand Out Points.
The Line 6 Variax Shuriken right out of the box is impressive. It has a unique body shape when you compare it to other variax guitar. It has a great body shape that contours in all the right spots making it super comfortable to play.
There was a lot of design planning that went into the body shape. Of course, it is not only the body shape that is impressive. It is the entire style of this modeling guitar that really makes it a stand out.
Some would even say that this is the best Variax yet because of the extra effort put into the design elements of the body and style. Of course, there is also that hard to beat Variax electronics as well.
Comfort is key and the line 6 does a great job of delivering the comfort that you want to be able to play for hours without feeling the fatigue that you can feel with other modeling guitars. It got 5 stars when it comes to comfort and playability.
Enough about the look and the comfort, lets talk about what really matters, the features and the sound.
The Features.
The Yamaha Variax has some great features that deliver great capabilities. It has one standard pickup. The Line 6 humbucker is a mid-gain and a it also has a LR Baggs piezo built into the fixed bridge that deliver acoustic tones.
There are 24 frets both medium and jumbo.
There is a master tone, volume and select control knobs and a 5-position blade switch. A ¼ inch jack and Variax Digital Interface jack to make connecting to amps and processors easy.
You can instantly access a wide range of instrument sounds with the control knobs that have been logically placed. Another nod to the importance of ergonomics in modeling guitars.
The control knobs are strategically placed for easy access during play which makes a huge difference in your ability to control the Variax and get the most out of its capabilities.
The control knobs let you choose from a range of models including various six and twelve string acoustics, Shuriken Model T, Lester the Les Paul Standard, Jazz, Banjo and Dan electric, Twang and more.
The Line 6 Variax acoustic sounds are great, we were thoroughly impressed. As a matter of fact, we were impressed with the overall playability.
Features We Liked.
We liked that the baritone scale offers great string tension and intonation even when you are tuned way down. The electronics offers a great range of both acoustic and electric guitar models and includes alternate sounds like the sitar and the banjo.
It makes it easier to put your focus where it needs to be instead of switching out instruments.
The multi-function knobs are also a big hit. Each one features four settings that allow access to the presets and can be used to save new custom sounds as well.
You can take advantage of the free download of Workbench that allow you to create custom models and to tweak the tuning. It is an intuitive software suite that really puts control in the user’s hands. Overall it is hard to beat this electronic guitar at this price point.
There are a lot of good things to say about the Line 6 Variax but the best way to learn about this guitar is to watch the video.
Enjoy the Demo!

This is the first review I have watched so far for this particular product line to mention the way that the tone knob can be used to manipulate the quality of the acoustic guitar sounds as if you were repositioning the microphone. It’s also the first review in which I think I could hear the acoustic resonance of the strings equally with the models and alternate tunings. It was good of you to acknowledge that.

I have a Variax JVT-69 and I totally agree! The best thing is that together with one of Line6 multieffects with a Variax port you can control both the effects and the guitar sound from a pedal. Play DI acoustic in the verse and a distorted Les Paul in the chorus, there's no problem to do it live with that setup!

Hi Alex, Great review and demo....! I own a tobacco burst Line 6 Variax Standard, and I'm really pleased with all aspects of it, especially the 'acoustic' and 'reso' settings. If I may add a couple of points to your review?.... 1. A tremolo arm is supplied as standard. The arm is secured in the traditional way to the chrome bridge via a thread on the arm itself. 2. The Lithium Ion battery is rechargeable, and a charger is supplied. I'm always leaving the guitar in 'on' mode after playing, resulting in a flat battery when I pick the guitar up the next day. Very annoying, as the battery takes a couple of hours to charge up. 3. On delivery, change the strings to your preferred choice, as the factory supplied ones are unimpressive. I own 8 guitars, and the Line 6 Standard, 'Yamaha Pacifica' shape, is my first choice every time. I particularly love the warm bass tones on the 'acoustic' settings. Playability is superb.

@andrewbutcher3391
@andrewbutcher3391 5 лет назад
I’ve had a Stagesource L2t for ages which is great for monitoring the Helix or using instead of an amp but since I bought the Variax Standard a few days ago I haven’t been able to put it down! I have a small gig at the weekend and it’s been great matching a guitar option to each song. The guitar is really well made with decent quality parts and stays in tune.....I’ve had much more expensive guitars that were a pain to keep in tune. One thing I can’t quite make up my mind about is that I think the guitar sounds fractionally better with the Variax cable into the Helix whereas I was using a G10 wireless system. I know there are a lot of other things you can do using the cable connection but would appreciate your views on whether you think there is a tone difference with the cable or am I just imagining it?
@alexbassguy1
@alexbassguy1 5 лет назад
@@andrewbutcher3391 Thanks for watching man! There's actually a major difference between a wireless rig and the Variax cable. Because of the modeling tech, there's an onboard processor and A/D converters in the guitar itself. When you're using the Variax cable, it's taking the digital signal straight from the guitar and sending it into the pedal. Wireless systems by comparison transmit an analog signal over radio, which (even in great-quality units) is prone to interference and signal loss. So the Variax cable is a much higher-quality signal for sure.

I love it as a stand alone guitar as well. Using it with a POD HD500X and after an intense few weeks of programming it is the only guitar I need to bring to a gig! Figured out that the POD500X edit software is all you need to control and program the models and tunings on the Variax!

Love my JTV59 and use it with the Line 6 Helix. Currently exploring how much can be done using a standard guitar cable, running wireless, since full Variax/Helix functionality is generally only available using the VDI cable from Variax to Helix.

Hi mate, several have commented very positively on the sound of your acoustic models in the facebook Variax group. Is this running purely stock banks, or have you done any form of tweaking? There was a vid done way back in the day by Dominik Hardy which was also super impressive. Noted you were recording this direct via an amp and into your audio interfaces. Is this the difference? Have you been passing these at all via helix and then recording using your normal gear with the different preamps, or is there something else to have a look at?? Inquiring minds want to know.

They didnt redesign anything from the ground up what are you talking about dude... They were bought by Yamaha...and these are Pacifica...with the variax electronic in them. They are okay guitar... but nothing to brag about. Without the variax electronic these cost around 300$ and are pretty cheap but good beginner guitar. Yamaha is consistent in term of quality control and use real wood. Not sure why you said they redesigned these guitar from the ground up..even the cpu...electronic has not been changed..but they just updated it with hd model wich is essentially new algorythme. That being said i wouldbt pay 1799$ cad.. or 1140 for a James tyler variax wich is basiclly a strat clone with little more quality then the standard. It got locking tuning key.. a bit of a better neck that can be change...and a giant advertising head with the names James Tyler on it wich is totally retarded. They should sell the electronic so people can make their custom guitar with this in. They would sell way more. All we have is very cheap guitar to choose from for these. None of these guitar are worth more then 800$in my opinions. Maybe the shuriken and even then..

You don't seem to understand what "redesign" means. Look at the old Variaxes. Look at the new Variaxes. That's what's called a "redesign". Did they borrow part of that redesign from something else? Sure. Maybe. But how does that make it not a redesign compared to the old Variaxe? You're comparing this to a Pacifica. Nobody said "They redesigned the Pacifica from the ground up". He said they redesigned THE VARIAXE. Which they absolutely, 100%, certainly did. Don't be that asshole online who tries to "correct" people using silly semantics. There's nobody more annoying. And those people are almost always the people who actually know the LEAST about the subject.
