A real demo, no talking, more information here than most if you use your ears

I have one of the original Line 6 electric guitars from... 25ish years ago(?). It was even more amazing to be able to switch from a Tele to a Hollow body back then. This thing doesn't really sound all that different. But they all sound great! And yes, mine has banjo, sitar, and acoustic guitars built in too. I also have their classical/flamenco guitar, which I don't think you can get any more. That's an amazing guitar as well. Imagine recording pristine, clear classical guitar in any environment - however noisy. Mind-blowing!!! 🤯

Nice to see a video with just a demo and not the typical 10 minutes explaining what it is where people recycle the same garbage the last guuy did.... Thanks for the demo, have you compared it to the JTV Variax 89F? I'm due to pick one up very soon.

[@andrewbutcher3391]

Since I got my Variax Ltd Edition I haven’t played or wanted any other guitar. Maybe one of these would be nice though...🤔 Line 6 really have nailed it with Helix and Variax/Shuriken now....I wonder where it could possibly go from here....?

[@mjcussen7458]

Yeah, that's the one thing that bothers me with these guitars. They have now effectively become computers. And we all know that computers go out of date and you have to keep buying new versions to keep up. It seems to have already happened once with the Variax's. Mind you, I've never owned one but I'm on the cusp of buying one .... If I can find one for sale. Do I have this right or am I going off half cocked?

@@mjcussen7458 It's both a normal guitar and a variax, and if you get the right one it will feel great, so unless guitars get an entirely new way of connecting to amps (possibly in the next 20 years) then the traditional side of it will be fine, they're still good guitars without the variax side of them. The variax part of it whilst likely to be modified over the years may be interchangeable, they'll likely use the exact same areas of the guitar to pick up the sound, so there may also be a way to update the electrical components. Thing is though, what's most likely to change is the emulators more than the tech used to capture the sounds, so my guess is they will work just fine for as long as normal guitars are built the way they are.

@@nanogeekpro2 Honestly it would be really nice to see them upgrade the processor to have more dynamic range now. They have stuck with the same platform and just a few software updates in the past 15 years, and it still sounds pretty compressed overall and especially on the attack. Hopefully Line 6 comes up with a newer model to kick out now that processing is much cheaper.

cool riffs

[@johnscott2076]

You have to stay busier than a cat to own this guitar 😸

[@AdamPage85]

That doesn't sound very busy at all...

[@ericvalverderosado2046]

I want this guitar

[@AndrewBonicaRR]

Painkiller488 X Awesome, thanks! Better get one soon, as not very many were made in this color. 🤘

[@ElCanalDeEzequielMartinez]

quiero una de estas!

[@usafirefly7967]

A lot of variety. Is it the player or does this Shuriken better than the JTV 69S? Cause it sounds better in this demo.

[@indianajohn5669]

What is your signal chain? How variax sounds in front of a regular amp?

[@nanogeekpro2]

Sounds really good tbh, just the base pickups sound quality by themselves.

Que som lougo

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

I would consider a Shuriken, if I were more of a metslhead and hadn’t lost my taste for the Floyd Rose.

[@nanogeekpro2]

why don't you like floyd rose?
