I bought a Variax 600 and a POD HD500 recently, with the Variax cable. Plugged it all in when I got it and the Variax didn’t work. Returned and bought a jtv. When I got it, the same thing, electronics wouldn’t work. Mags work fine though. My question is, if I take the battery out of the guitar and plug it into a POD HD500 via the Variax port, that should power the guitar without it having a battery, correct? So my problem most likely lies with the POD?
