I dont want a modern strat sound,ok it can be modern or oldie I don't care,just want a good and usable strat sound just like the ones I heard before in videos of the variax that convince me to buy the guitar. This is not the sound I hear. I think the worst part of this strat sound is the lack of body.

It's true the Spank or fender Stratocaster is a very bad emulation,is thin,lifeless,low volume and worst sound I've ever hear...the members of my band always used to think is the acoustic when I use it, so no more for me,I quit use the Spank,my main is the Lester then the semi and last the telecaster. I love the Stratocaster sound in fact I played with an American standard strat before buy the variax and I love it,but not this thing,Is a very poor emulation. Don't know if playing in home alone with backingtracks it sounds good but for a live situation with a drummer and bass player is bad,i play all the week live,hotels,bars and restaurants. And for me the Spank just don't sound good,really I dont understand why line 6 can't see it..

Thank you for the answer Guys,i think im going to save my patches and reflashing the firmware. And thanks hurghanico for the patches im going to test some before reflashing to see if really worth it

i update mi pod hd500x to the new firmware and buy the whole pack of new amps,(bass,vintage and metal) and its great! i made a patch with the roland jazz chorus and use it all the last week live and everybody loves it, btw i use a jtv59 as mi main guitar. when i update decide to keep my patches so i dont receive the new set list with the variax patches,and i want this set list so bad, what can i do? can i re do the update or back to the previous version first and then update again? any help?
