Let me know how you make out FWIW - I already host Line-6 Variax Patch sharing here: http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?board=138.0 and could add a similar patch sharing area to the existing Firehawk 1500 area here: http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?board=214.0 we use google to search "vguitarforums: Variax Gretsch" http://bfy.tw/5x9z http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=18149.0

Id pay $999, but only if the channel count was 9 channel minimum ( 1 channel for Mag PU, 1 channel for existing Variax Modeling, add another 6 channels for each string, one bi-di AES67/ OSC / MIDI control channel , and be "plug & play" infratructure ready for a future next gen version of Variax with individual string processing definable by the user.

69s: Improve sustain?
stevekc replied to clay-man's topic in James Tyler Variax Guitars / Workbench HD
Similar to the Godin xtSA ( pic below) , I added a Super-Vee Mag-Lok to my JTV-69 to help improve sustain - details here: JTV-69 Tremolo Setup http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=9371.0 -

Nylon Stringed Acoustic Sounds
stevekc replied to jc_x_c's topic in James Tyler Variax Guitars / Workbench HD
If your gig requires swift change to Classical Nylon model, consider a different tool http://www.vguitarforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=17683.msg126185#msg126185 -

Workbench HD won't recognize my Variax
stevekc replied to sminchk67's topic in James Tyler Variax Guitars / Workbench HD
Use Line-6 Monkey to update the JTV Firmware. If the JTV firmware is lower than 2.00, then use original Workbench app the more recent "Workbench HD" app requires Tyler Variax have firmware 2.0 (or higher) installed. -

Anyone done the treble bleed mod on JTV-69
stevekc replied to Dshow's topic in James Tyler Variax Guitars / Workbench HD
Almost but you must leave the Variax TRS "RING" connection as "open / no connection" TRS | TS -------------- Tip = Tip Ring = open Sleeve = Sleeve -
Anyone done the treble bleed mod on JTV-69
stevekc replied to Dshow's topic in James Tyler Variax Guitars / Workbench HD
There is 7VDC voltage on the VDI Ethercon connector. And the "Ring" contact on the 1/4" TRS jack can be used as a remote DC Power input for powering the Variax. Its conceivably possible that damage / strain on the Variax internal electronics may occur if you connect a standard mono 1/4" TS Guitar cable while also using the VDI cable connection. There are internal voltage steering diodes to prevent shorting these two power entry points - but Line-6 has seen these fail, and the result is a smoked / burnt VARIAX DSP board If you want to be safe while using the VDi cable, always use a 1/4" TRS cable with "open" Ring contact to connect to the Variax 1/4" TRS jack. But know the Downfall of using a stock 1/4" TRS cable is that you typically are connecting to a battery powered floor stomp FX, but the floor FX will not "turn on" unless the TRS "Ring" contact is grounded. So build a custom 1/4" Guitar cable with an open "Ring" connection on the TRS (Variax) side, and a normal TS plug on the Amp / FX side. -
Line 6 gets competition from Vox
stevekc replied to Dshow's topic in James Tyler Variax Guitars / Workbench HD
Confirmed, No alt turnings And synth is mono, I doubt they are even using a hex PU. It's a Korg DSP Design ( like all Vox gear) From my perspective the Vox guitar is using similar PU Modeling tech introduced in JamVox , but now in an onboard DSP. No USB, No Editor, No Alt Tuning, No String Splits. No interest here. -
Set the Helix Output mode to "Instrument Level" works best with Alto / Alesis speakers

Why not use the official Line-6 XPS Variax A/B switch / Power adapter and a quality 1/4" TRS cable to the Variax ( these works with all generations of variax http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/VariaxPwrKit?adpos=1o1&creative=54989263441&device=c&matchtype=&network=g&gclid=Cj0KEQjwkqKxBRCIrK_riNm13Z8BEiQAdzdVkEO9bMDYGbzPlEDa9kG-d1jb2GXmNus6SYEB155k_m0aAqRA8P8HAQ
