Many Acoustics - One Instrument!
The Line 6 Variax Acoustic 700 is the world's first acoustic modeling guitar. It offers 16 richly detailed acoustic instrument sounds, phenomenal feedback-resistance, unique and intuitive tone-shaping options, and instant access to altered tunings.

Line 6 Variax Acoustic 700 at a Glance:
  • Modeled sounds from 16 acoustic instruments
  • Built-in electronics means output can be sent directly to amp
  • Alter modeled microphone "position!"
  • Easy access to alternate tunings
  • Built-in compression
  • Digital I/O for Vetta II connection

Classic and unique modeled sounds
The Variax Acoustic 700 utilizes Line 6's exclusive technology to create the most realistic guitar and string instrument sounds possible - all from one guitar! Besides classic acoustic guitars, the Variax Acoustic 700 includes Dobro, banjo, shamisen and Indian sitar sounds.

Line 6 Variax Acoustic 700 Models are based on:
  • Martin size 5 "Parlor"
  • Martin 000-18
  • Martin D-28
  • Gibson J-45
  • Gibson J-200
  • Selmer-Maccaferri
  • D'Angelico New Yorker
  • Nylon String Classical
  • Guild F412 12-String
  • Stella 12-String
  • National Style O
  • Wood body Dobro
  • Gibson Mastertone Banjo
  • Mandocello
  • Japanese Shamisen
  • Traditional Indian Sitar

Onboard circuitry for amp connection convenience
All the Variax Acoustic 700's modeling magic happens within the guitar - there's no tabletop box or rackmount unit to deal with! This means you can plug the Variax output directly into any standard acoustic amplifier, a PA, a recording device, or other audio in.

Alter the modeled microphone "position!"
The Variax Acoustic 700's top slider (the one furthest away from you when you hold the guitar) allows you to alter the position of the modeled microphone. Here's a simple way to remember how it works: As you move the slider closer to the soundhole (away from the Model Select knob), the Mic Position is also getting closer to the soundhole. Some of the instruments modeled in the Variax Acoustic 700 don't have a soundhole, but the control will work similarly for these instruments. When the slider is close to the Model Select knob, the strings (and upper frequencies) are emphasized; when the slider is close to the soundhole, the body (and lower frequencies) are emphasized.

Easy Access to alternate tunings
The Variax Acoustic's Model Select knob also lets you engage the Instant Alternate Tuning function. With a quick press on the knob, the LED will change from green to red. Now, none of the notes are where you thought they were! To learn the method to our madness,check out the next section, Instant Alternate Tunings. But wait, there's more: The Model Select knob also lets you save any customizations you have carried out.

Built-in compression
The bottom slider allows you to change the level of compression. A compressor usually has a lot of controls to adjust, but Line 6 takes care of all the complicated stuff for you. Just push the slider toward the Model Select knob for more compression, and away from the knob for less.

Plus, Vetta II compatibility!
For the ultimate in guitar and amp/cabinet modeling, use the Variax Acoustic 700's digital output to connect to the Line 6 Vetta II amplifier. You'll experience a wealth of sound possibilities that ordinarily would require several guitars and a stage full of amps to reproduce!


Line 6 Variax Acoustic 700 Features:
  • Simple and intuitive volume and Mic Position/Tone controls
  • Instant access to preset and custom altered tunings
  • Sunburst finish
  • Thin and comfortable mahogany body with cedar top
  • Mahogany neck with rosewood fingerboard and pearl snowflake position markers
  • 24 medium profile frets
  • Standard 1/4-inch guitar output
  • Digital I/O jack for Vetta II connection
  • Custom-fitted heavy duty gig bag included

The Line 6 Variax Acoustic 700 guitar: Like 16 guitars in one!
