archisc Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Anyone heard or read about a "new variax" would be introduced. I remember few yrs back, Line 6 introduced JTV about a yr after the PODHD 500.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarrellM5 Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Haven't heard anything about a new Variax but DI did drop some hints today in the TGP forum that Variax owners will be pretty happy with an upcoming Helix update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silverhead Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 ....I remember few yrs back, Line 6 introduced JTV about a yr after the PODHD 500.... I don't think there's any relationship between the two in terms of new product releases. Variax Standard is still quite new; I wouldn't expect anything new at this point. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clay-man Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Haven't heard anything about a new Variax but DI did drop some hints today in the TGP forum that Variax owners will be pretty happy with an upcoming Helix update. And now I want a Helix, too bad it costs so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I'm not holding my breath. The Standard is barely a year old...not to mention the fact that these guitars are not exactly a household name. To keep designing and releasing one model after another really doesn't make any sense. They're better off refining what they've got, and making the most guitar they can at the price points they've chosen. There's already 4 different Variax models still in production. How many does the world need? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_Watt Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I would love options for new or different models but I doubt that Line6 is motivated enough to put resources on a project like that for Variax at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbeddall Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 They need a tele model for sure I love the telecaster shape If they ever make one I would sell my telecaster immediately and buy the variax version 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

revans Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 It's been six years since the JTV was announced in 2010. Surely today's hardware can give us some improvements in quality and features!
