@cowboy51256 that guitar got a exaphonic piezo system, which allows to program, for example, the two lower strings only with an octaver or any other grade of pitch shifting.
"just can't let you go" by fabolous. I thought it was cool when I saw this video, stole it from your vid, and played it one night and my buddy told me what song it was.
If Line6 were fair they would give you an endorsement deal & a 700Ac. for free to replace the one you had to sell! Great playing, instructive vid - 5 stars!
the variax acoustic 700's too overpriced.completely unusable in the studio,unless you want an unusual sounding guitar tone.can't replace a traditional miked acoustic guitar sound.the electric version is a must-have tho.
I don´t agree. Are you sure you talking about serious recording? These guitars are absolutely good enough for excellent recording. I have seen much thing worst than this making huge success around.
nice video, thanks - I'm thinking about buying the 700 new so its good to hear it live - got to get my music store to get one in for me to try out tho...
the nice thing with the line 6 thingies though, that multi-fx pedals can´t do with sound shaping, is that this does the processing and stuff to each individual string separately... so the quality is alot more consistent...
great video! it sounds very good.. i still am amazed at how flawless the tracking is on these variax guitars.. the acoustic guitar in particular is great
its not tracking...its shaping the sound coming from the regular piezo pickup....only flaw is a very slight delay.this technology is really cool, i believe the new fishman pedals use the same technology...sound shaping....
These things have delay? Do you know if the 300 models have delay as well? I'm planning to get a Variax 300 Nylon, and it would be a bummer if it had delay..
it's very very small, hardly noticable, but i can....i still love the thing, you should go play one at a store befor eyou buy it, and im sure the 300 may nit have it..
it may or may not be a drag, all depends on your playing style...sometimes you cant really tell..other times, if your very percussive and in the pocket, it can be noticeable. The benefits outweight the negative
Brilliant demo, Line 6 should pay you for this vid! I wanted to hear this guitar before buying one (trading for one really), and you've handled everything possible about it, alot to think about for an electric guitarist like me... Thanks!
Can you play it without an amp?

I have a question. How was the action on yours? I like to do a lot of tap style acoustic and being able to custom tune on the fly is intriguing.

Hey man, nice playing. Is the line you played at around 5:40 (nylon) something you wrote? Because it sounds so familiar but I can't place it...

OK serious question, what amp are you using? I have a few amps but none of 'em make my variaxe 700 sound that good.

Lawl. Nice playing, man. I would never buy one of these though, to be honest. I prefer the more organic sound of a big, full-bodied dreadnought.
Thanks.

Ahh, okay. As long as you don't have to calculate when you have to play when playing live with a band :P
I played a 300 nylon model at the guitar store some days ago, but I was in quite a hurry, couldn't really test it, but it sounded pretty good.
Demoras 4 years ago
so there is a latency , like a milisecond of space between when you touch and when the sound processes and comes out the speaker ? thats a drag

it may or may not be a drag, all depends on your playing style...sometimes you cant really tell..other times, if your very percussive and in the pocket, it can be noticeable. The benefits outweight the negative
