[@xSTONYTARKx]

Anyone calling him a lazy guitar player propably didn't realize how freakin much time and efford went into getting all these settings right. And it's not like he wrote it and then had to find the settings. He used it as a tool to expand what's possible to write. It's totally innovative, and faaaaar from lazy if you ask me.

[@a-nus]

I agree. This is as innovative an instrument as I've ever seen, and its simply a Swiss-army knife type instrument. People that don't like it aren't actual musicians, they're just tools with a guitar.

[@Niamorg1007]

Concerning the Variax, people are quick to judge Stevic and say he's too lazy to handle the parts on a regular tuned guitar, etc... But it shows great humility to put the song and the performance first, in my opinion. It may mean that he's not playing stuff that is as technical as other prog bands do these days, but allows for great musicianship, composition and live shows.

[@dougcronkhite2113]

I just think it's cool and versatile as all hell!

[@MultiWolfstorm]

I can see both sides of the argument. There are going to always be one kind of person who thinks that merely using everything within your grasp to find your sound and adapting to that is, in itself, innovative. That said, yeah, good luck to the average fan who might feel like they could play this song better but their Stratocaster doesn't magically change tunings on a click.

[@markuso1862]

It’s the same argument old guard vinyl fanatic DJs spew when people talk about the new DJing devices that have sync, which matches the tempos of different audio sources. Why restrict oneself to deal with technical hurdles when we can just use technology to offer better performances?

[@ryelor]

And he’s literally playing on one guitar what other bands would do with 3 or 4 separate guitar players. Plus, each time he changes the tuning he has to remember the different chord shapes and fingering patterns. The dude’s crazy good, and innovation is like his super power.

Somehow "Amazing " just doesn't do this justice. THIS is how you push tech to the limits. I have a few 12 Foot Ninja albums, but I always figured they were doing that with a bunch of over-dubs in the studio. Seeing Stevic do that in a live environment is nuts --- it is NUTS. Just wild use of Line6 tech here. Love the look of the Shuriken, I don't really need a baritone --- but I really do love the look of it.

In Australia these guitars cost about $3000, I found a shuriken on Facebook marketplace for $1500, I hate modifying guitars for lower tunings, since buying this guitar I've learned so many songs I've always wanted play but couldn't, only thing I don't have is the pedal, just a Marshall and boss me50 pedal, I have the 270 model which is a bigger scale than I'm use to but still love playing it

[@ZolFox]

In Drop C that chord with the crazy stretch is absurdly easy to play. I know cuz I recognized it right away as an F13 chord that I’ve used from time to time. Although that second variation with the root dropping to E is pretty deadly sounding. Sick.

[@LibertyCrypto]

To anyone saying that Stevic is not a "player": There is a video on here of him playing classical style/flamenco at age 15 or 16. Watch that and come back again ;)

My Helix has replaced my amps, but I have a single tube amp (Marshall Monoblock) to play the Helix through. It is a life-changing technology. Don't even think the emulation is going to be poor. It has finally been perfected. The variax is great, but I still rely on my other guitars.

Honestly... I can't wait to get my hands on that exact guitar model you have of variax. I bought the first model when it came out. When my local gtr tech did a demo for me, I said YES. He showed me everything else there after... and it literally sped up my learning process ten fold. Eventually I sold it because I didn't like the feel of it. But here we are... MANY years later and they finally have a "metal style" neck and feel that's pretty close to an ibanez. I'm saving up, almost there. Gonna use it at the club I DJ for to really amp up my nightly performances.

[@Rockitout32]

I can appreciate that advice. But honestly, I'd rather get the sounds that Stevic gets and love the music that I make, rather than cater to the gear snobs who would not take a musician seriously based solely on what they choose to play. I don't know if you've ever listened to any Twelve Foot Ninja songs, but they have some of the best guitar tones I've ever heard. Not trying to be snappy or anything. Just continuing the discussion. I appreciate different viewpoints and opinions.

[@Shred_The_Weapon]

Since Yamaha now owns Line 6, what about another Variax edition modeled physically after the SBG-2000? The Shurkien is appealing, as a guitar for the user who is prioritizing the modeling over anything he/she would do with the hardware pickups, but it’s probably more functional to continue manufacturing guitars prioritizing the traditional hardware in perfect tandem with the modeling technology. And, what cooler way to continue the amalgam of traditional electric guitar technology with the modeling technology than by emulating Yamaha’s (arguably) most classic electric guitar model, the SBG-2000?

[@spsanders69]

I absolutely LOVE my JTV59! Who knows may entertain another Variax for a different neck feel. Though, nice thing about the Variax, pretty much one guitar to rule them all. I like how they changed the tunings to User 1, User 2 etc. Since I usually change tuning to something different than what is actually on the knob Just got my Helix last week and will start doing some of the Variax controls. I replaced a HD500 which I controlled the variax somewhat, but the Helix looks to make it so much simpler. Great demo, never thought about muting some strings for certain songs that don't use certain strings. Amazing how he can keep all of the different tunings straight Such an amazing versatile combination.

[@JustinChampa]

I’m with ya. Got the JTV-59 first. Was the only guitar I used live for gigs for almost 2 years. I also love Strat-style guitars, so I picked up a JTV-69 last year. Now I love ‘em equally. They’re the only 2 guitars I bring to gigs. And I’m talking as a guy who already had a Les Paul, a PRS, a USA Strat, and a MusicMan “Luke”! I’ve barely used any of them since acquiring a Variax!

[@Draken0023]

I bought a Shuriken a couple weeks ago. Quality control must have gone to lunch when mine came down the line. The model select knob fell apart the first time I used it. The "alternate tuning" mode never works right. It sounds like a bunch of out-of-tune strings being layered in on top of another out-of-tune string. The action is WAY to high to make playing even the simplest of chords comfortable. The ONLY time it doesn't sound like total trash is when it's directly linked to a computer and the signal is being cleaned up by the Workbench software. As far as playing this guitar live without the use of a computer goes; zero out of five stars. Be warned; using this guitar without cramming a computer into your lineup is going to be VERY disappointing. The whole point, for me, of purchasing this guitar was so that I could program the settings I wanted, unplug it from the computer, and use it like any other guitar. The demo Stevic made where he was demonstrating the ability to "quickly change tunings" was what got me hyped for this guitar. I should have paid more attention to when he got a sound that was "a bit dodgy". That's all I get from this guitar. I'll be returning it and will not be asking for an exchange. Love Stevic and Twelve Foot Ninja, but Line 6 failed hard on this instrument. For those of you who are happy with it; awesome. I, however, would not recommend purchasing a $1400 guitar that requires a computer link to sound good and super glue to hold together the hardware.

[@ShurikenGuitars]

You need to be mindful of hearing the strings acoustically . . . I always have my output source louder than what I can hear unplugged. WorkBench doesn't "clean up" the sound - it just enables you to edit and save guitars. I've never brought a computer to a show. I just recall guitars/tunings in my Helix settings. If the "setup" of the guitar is shit, or any component is busted - take it back and get a refund, repair or exchange - but hang in there with the tech. It's different to anything else so there will inevitably be a learning curve.

[@Draken0023]

Shuriken Guitars It's definitely not the acoustic sound that I'm hearing. Even with headphones on. There is definitely a difference when using Workbench, too. When plugged into a computer, the alternate tuning works flawlessly. Plugged into my amps and effects, it doesn't. I don't have a Helix and, quite frankly after this, will not be spending any more money on Line 6 guitars and effects. There is hope for the tech, but after such a terrible experience, I'm no longer really interested in this particular product. Maybe after some updates I'll be willing to take another look. The "setup" is definitely a bit too stiff for my liking anyways. Again, if everyone else received a good product that functions as advertised; awesome! I did not, though, and $1400 is a lot of money for a dud. On top of that, having to spend another thousand to $1500 for an effects processor puts a damper on the guitar's overall appeal. I'm sure there are a lot of people who can afford things like that, but I'm not one of them. Thanks for the feedback. Hopefully things improve in the future and I can try again

[@ShurikenGuitars]

If you make a video demonstrating what you mean and post on the Shuriken Guitars facebook page: I can give you more specific feedback. WorkBench doesn't really work the way you're describing (or the way I'm interpreting what you're saying) which indicates something is either wrong or being lost in translation. It very well might be a dud - that's always a possibility - but it's also often user error. When you don't get an instant result and have forked out your hard earned it can induce anxiety and disdain pretty quickly. I totally get that. Question: when you're plugged into your amp, are you in Variax mode? (i.e. is the model knob LED lit) What is the model set to? What is the tuning select set to? Is the battery charged? Are you saving tunings into the guitar in workbench then recalling them when you're plugged into your amp?

[@Draken0023]

Shuriken Guitars Yes, the guitar is in Shuriken mode. The issue is that when I'm attempting to change the tuning using the onboard software, the sound that is produced is awful. There seem to be layers of different sounds all being combined onto one string and they're all out of tune. No matter what guitar I select after that (acoustic, Spank, etc), the sound is the same. I don't have Facebook, so I'll try to post something here to KZbin later when I have a chance to record. Also, my computer is down at the moment, so I'm unable to plug in and demonstrate the difference between using Workbench and not. All of this aside, when I turned the model select for the first time, the top portion of the knob completely fell off, and there's no excuse for that. I understand that mistakes and quality issues occur in a production facility, as I work in a major automotive manufacturing plant. The fact that a flawed product reached a customer is unacceptable, though. There should be a more extensive testing process and final inspection before a product is even prepared to ship. I will post the link here once I've recorded the video. Unfortunately, the video will be public and therefore openly viewed by potential customers. I will make note in the video, as well as in the video's description, that my case may be unique, but I feel that some may jump to conclusions regardless.

[@ShurikenGuitars]

There are a number of possibilities regarding how the top part of the knob got damaged - it isn't a forgone conclusion that the guitar was shipped with a busted knob, although that of course is a possibility. Shuriken Guitars are made the same place PRS, Chapman, Schecter and a number of other well known guitar brands are made and the same level of quality control is implemented. Regardless, it is completely covered by warranty. The issue about the tuning is what I'm interested in...First of all, is the guitar perfectly in tune physically? Then if you press the model select knob down so the LED comes on, and select say the SPANK model, then change the tuning knob to drop C . . . You're saying that you're hearing multiple notes at the same time on one string through your output source eg. amp? Have you modified any of the settings in WorkBench? Are you aware there is a PARALLEL PITCH setting in WorkBench designed for 12 string models which can add another "note" to each string? Has that setting been turned on and saved anywhere? Maybe reload the Factory Bundle to make sure nothing has been bunged up along the way . . . line6.com/data/6/0a020a3e0da558ec1d1217cd8/file/%20zip/variax-shuriken-bundle.zip
