Scott Rosenberger Posted October 16, 2003 Report Share Posted October 16, 2003 I stumbled across this in my travels. A guy swapped all the electronics from a Line 6 Variax guitar into a Warmoth tele with a/b switch for passive pickups/Digital Modeling Here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveq Posted October 16, 2003 Report Share Posted October 16, 2003 I had never heard of the Variax before. I know the amp modeling has been the trend lately but I had not heard of the guitar modeling before. Who are they targeting the Variax with? Are they expecting the younger / kids or are they expecting experienced musicians to buy this stuff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Rosenberger Posted October 16, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2003 I gather the bulk of the users are experienced recording musicians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tezifon Posted October 17, 2003 Report Share Posted October 17, 2003 ****ing cool, i´m drooling about the new variax model too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted October 17, 2003 Report Share Posted October 17, 2003 VERY COOL!!! I have a friend that works at LINE 6 that aluded to the fact that the "guts" could be put into another guitar, but that LINE 6 was not going to allow that option I bet there would be a market for VARIAC replacement bodies The ONLY thing that has kept me from getting one of these is the P.O.S. guitar & neck The electronics & sounds are AMAZING!! If you haven't tried one out..I HIGHLY recomend it! It's a great recording tool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Rosenberger Posted October 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2003 I have a pod 2.3... Way better than the XT IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daveq Posted October 17, 2003 Report Share Posted October 17, 2003 I gather the bulk of the users are experienced recording musicians That wouldn't have been my guess but then again, I'm not one of them. I would have thought that experienced musicians would prefer to use the real thing rather than the electronic "equivalent". It seemed more like something that players who couldn't afford to have a guitar collection but wanted to play around would want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
william Posted October 17, 2003 Report Share Posted October 17, 2003 I think their target consumer is the studio guitarist. The guy who one day needs to add a country style backing track with a tele sound and a strat style solo, then the next rock riffing with a les paul through marshall sound. Its much more convienent and cost effective to do this with one guitar rather than mutiple. I'm not sure what the price is, but I'm sure its prohibitive for the average 16 year old to purchase.
