    I like the fact you can use a laptop to modify the sounds or build unique guitars but you loose the sustain and although it can sound kinda like a les paul it really cannot give off the same sustain. I know use traditional guitars for recording but uses these for messing around with. Hopefully oneda ...

    The Line 6 Variax 500 has a good sound. The only bad thing about it is the weight, but if you need a good guitar, buy a Variax!

    When I got my Line 6 Variax 500 electric guitar home, at first I couldn't get it to work, but after much fiddling, it was just that the batteries had run dry while I was playing it in the shop. For some reason when the batteries are in, the guitar tries to use them rather than using the power from t ...

    You can't get a Line6 Variaz 500 electric guitar anymore, unless you find a store that has some left, as it's now a discontinued model. Since it looks like the top of the line, it'll be better than the 600 in my opinion, to anyone who can find one. I've been finding that it's like any other guitar, ...

    Line6 Variax 500 a great piece of innovation. I don't claim to be a lead player but I have received nice compliments about some of the lead rifs I have added to my recordings recently using this guitar. My mate, who is a great lead player has accompanied me with it at gigs reckons it is wonderful an ...

    Line6 Variax 500 - We have been using 3 of these in the band since they first hit the shore - and although we have "top line" named guitars as well these are ideal for working musicians. Just added the 700 acoustic to the line up which is even more impressive with alternative tunings and even better ...

    Line6 Variax 500 - The Variax 500 doesn't do exactly what it says on the tin, but it does do a worthwhile job. If you want to have a massive guitar collection available to you at the flick of a switch, then this is the one to buy. As I already own a Fender Strat and have played a Telecaster on nume ...

    Line6 Variax 500 - Personally, I think that if you like this guitar then you don't know guitaring. I mean, I play a PRS so I would know.
