Line 6 Variax 700 "Acoustic" Sounds Demo (complete)

The Line 6 Variax 700 has a bunch of cool features: Other demos of this unique instrument I was able to find on YouTube didn't capture or convey the range of tones it's capable of producing. I tried to show them all in this recording. This instrument uses standard six-string guitar tuning with six separate little piezo pickups and what it does is trigger any one of 16 modeled acoustic instruments. A dozen guitar types include two 12-string guitars as well as a parlor-sized guitar sound, triple-O-sized guitar sound, a nylon-strung guitar sound, a dreadnought, a Super-Jumbo Gibson and maybe a Hummingbird or some other Gibson folk guitar, a generic setting labeled “jazz”, which I guess is like an f-hole archtop sound, as well as a couple resonator Dobro-type guitars and a Selmer/Maccafarri style labeled “gypsy.” The odd-ball non-guitar sounds includes a passable sitar with accompanying sympathetic drone string sounds, a passable banjo, a samisen, and a mando-cello, which my ear is too untutored to know if they’re passable. They sure sound characteristic to those things, though I won’t swear if a dedicated samisen or mando-cello player would be satisfied with them or not. Each of the 16 settings also has an alternate sound when the switch is depressed like a button, it lights the switch up red, and the sound may be in an altered tuning or a tweaked sound. For example, the sitar setting when altered loses the drone strings and just sounds the above-fret strings. Two of the altered guitar sounds, nylon and jazz, drop the low A and E strings an octave, making for theorbo-like ranges on these settings. Also available in the altered settings are a six-string bass, Nashville high-strung tuning, an open-E tuning, and an open-G tuning, a la Keith Richard. I look forward to messing around in these settings with a slide...dipping a toe in the water to see what I can do with it before dedicating a guitar to either of those setups. Recorded direct into a Panasonic HC-X1000 in Room 389 of the Inn of the Hills in Kerrville, Texas. Thanks for watching and feel free to give a thumbs-up if you dug it.
