Line 6 Modeling Meets Yamaha Craftsmanship
Tailor-made for a new generation of guitarist, the Variax Standard combines Line 6’s amazing tone-modeling electronics with Yamaha guitar craftsmanship to create a great-sounding, smooth-playing instrument that’s jam-packed with an epic range of guitar tones. This Variax model offers the natural sound of custom Yamaha Alnico V single-coil pickups plus the smooth action of a tremolo bridge. On top of that, you get a full complement of Variax HD modeling, including a huge selection of guitars, tunings, and pickup styles. And with Line 6’s Workbench HD software, you’ll be able to turn your Variax Standard into any guitar you can imagine.
Yamaha craftsmanship makes this one extremely playable guitar
One of the things that’s made Yamaha guitars is that you always get more than you pay for when you pick up one of their instruments. Even without any of the frills Line 6’s Variax HD technology has to offer, the Variax Standard is a wonderful guitar to play, with the smooth action and classic single-coil sound you’d expect out of a high-end axe. When you add in the expansive range of modeled tones and tunings, you’re never going to want to put your Variax Standard down.
