charlesian2000 Posted January 29, 2023 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Hi Guys, The A string and only the A string is fuzzy. I brought my second hand Variax 300 out of storage, now that I have time to play it. Tuned it … check. A string is fuzzy… damn. Before I start doing something crazy. Could it just be the A string itself? That’s part one. Part two is there is no sound if I choose the battery pack option. Is this normal? Any help is greatly appreciated.

psarkissian Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Sounds like it's fretting out, saddle may need a height adjust. Have the set-up checked by an authorized tech. https://line6.com/find/service_center/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlesian2000 Posted February 7, 2023 Author Share Posted February 7, 2023 Fixed it. Noticed that the A string was skew, released the tension, straightened the spring, changed the string, all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s working perfectly fine, but if it happens again I would need to find a service centre in Australia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
