- In this video we do a Line 6 Variax Demo and Review. The Variax by Line 6 is an incredibly versatile guitar that essentially lets you bring an entire room full of guitars to a gig by carrying just the one Variax.
This James Tyler Variax is one of several versions and we will look at Variax sound demo and a Variax review so you know what kind of quality you will be getting if you choose to purchase a James Tyler Variax.

James Tyler Variax by Line 6
The Music With Marky channel is dedicated to giving guitar students the guitar lessons they need to make good music. Each guitar lesson teaches guitar players how to play guitar in the most musical way possible. Shred guitar and guitar tricks are important, but great music is what makes all the guitar practice worth it!

I play musical shows and this guitar is a godsend. I only need one guitar where I once used 3. Tunings are very useful too.
I play for a living. I use the line 6 Jtv-69 variax.
I have two. And I use it for my Helix.
But now both guitars are both very used and starting break down. So I wanted to buy a new one. But I can’t for the love of god find any.
I guess they don’t produce them anymore. So I’m a bit in a pickle. I can only pray they will start making them again.
@kubel83 There are a bunch on reverb.

@@MusicWithMarky thanks a lot my friend. And reverb is a trusted site?
you dont have a Helix?
Nice timing, that's when they stopped making them....always wantes one, couldnt get it shipped to my country...
Oh that's unfortunate :(
Hoodie game is on point.
Gotta sport the hoodie!
Would love to know how the Variax could work as a slide guitar.
In this regard going to be like any other guitar you would pick up and do that with. It's got the emulations for the sound but you're still dealing with lower action and frets that you could buzz against. So you would just have to play it carefully to make use of the sound that lines up with slide guitar.
I use it for open tuning slide all the time
I play in a band which do a number of drop D songs and Acoustic songs, Drop D I don't mind changing guitar for, but getting a decent acoustic sound isn't working with my Helix Floor. Considering a second-hand Variax for acoustic duties. A question if I may, how does the acoustic models hold up at gig volume? I'm running into a Powerstage 200 driving 2 4x12 marshalls.
Thanks.
So the one thing I found really nice about it for acoustic models is that I don't have to worry about getting that feedback when playing in a loud environment. And, because it is a modeled sound and not actually acoustically generated, you can really crank the volume on it.
I should add that you have to be careful how you EQ it in those situations because acoustic sounds can get very jangly and almost painful to listen to for people on the other side of the PA if you're not careful about the high mids.
@@MusicWithMarky thanks for your reply. I’ve done some more tweaking on the helix with a Lindo semi acoustic. It’s getting there but the Variax looks really interesting to me. Just taking one guitar to practice would be nice some days.
Less to carry is always welcome by me!
The Variax can be programed to change the presets, tuning and snap shots and vice-versa when used in conjunction with Helix lt or Helix thru Line 6 connection.
How good is the Floyd????
I don't use it too heavily, but I would say it's solid.
Sir I'm from india And I want to buy first guitar 🎸 is it good purchase from online?◉‿◉
You want this guitar? I purchased it online and that was reliable, yes.
@@MusicWithMarky no sir not this🤭
Will you suggest me under rupees 5k🕺 in India
I can't think of anything in that price range. I'm also not entirely sure what's available in India. The only suggestions I have made there were from Amazon, and the prices for anything any good even for a beginner are still quite a bit more than that. :(
@@MusicWithMarky tnq Sir 🤗
Wow
It's a crazy piece of gear!
Seems to me this would make more sense in an entry level guitar for players that don't know what they want yet.
That could work too, however it's a bit pricey for someone new. I think also that a big part of picking a guitar you like is how it feels in your hands and this is only for sound emulation, of course.
@@MusicWithMarky when I say entry level I mean cheap. I know what you mean but you don't know what feels comfortable until you can play a bit.
Yeah that's the rough part. I've bought quite a few on reverb.com and wasn't sure how it was going to feel to play until I got it.
@@MusicWithMarky my strategy was to buy cheap versions of all the shapes I was interested in and then I upgraded.
Did you find that the feel carried over? I've mostly been pleased with what I get, but occasionally the setup comes in daft and I wonder how anyone plays a guitar like that.
Well I want one and I don't even play the guitar, after seeing that.
Well that's cool! If I may ask, what lead you to click in video as someone who doesn't play??
I'm interested in tech generally, and also fascinated by the sounds that guitarists can produce which keyboards with guitar sims just can't come close to.
Very cool!
It's interesting how many ding dongs there are in this comment section. Sounds like a lot of professional sit at home know nothings.
