From Our Research Team:

Every Bass Guitar You Could Ever Want!

Did you know that the human ear hears harmony from the bass up? The same holds true in recording. The sound of the bass defines the song. That's why a sequence played with bass samples never feels as good, or sounds as exciting as one performed with a real bass. So how do you get the versatility of a library of world-class bass sounds with the irreplaceable live-feel of a great bass into your recordings? The Line 6 Variax 700 Bass is how. The Variax 700 Bass puts not just a collection, but THE collection of 24 vintage and modern bass sounds that define their genres, right at your fingertips. It's all there: From authentic upright to analog synth-bass, Variax Bass 700 delivers instant access to the most coveted tones in the history of bass

Everyone knows that Line 6 attention to detail is so exacting that when you hear the modeled instrument, it sounds like you're in the room with the real thing - and the Variax Bass reflects that same level of artistry. An instrument on a level with the best American-made production basses, it features an alder body, a 34"-scale, maple neck with rosewood fingerboard and 21 medium profile frets, chrome tuners, and comes in either black or sunburst finish. Its familiar, easy-to-use controls combine the best of passive and active systems with powerful new features like adjustable pickup position and total recall.

Not just a studio-savior, when performing live with Variax, you can literally cover all the basses. Sound just like the record from song to song with exactly the right bass tone for the job. The best part about it is - and you'll appreciate this especially if you've ever tried to get a double bass on a subway - you'll only have to carry one bass with you ever again: The Line 6 Variax 700 Bass.

Music Background:
I bought this bass with a certain amount of fear. Would this $1000 plus bass do everything it says it will do? For years I have spent a lot of money from different basses,strings to effects to get a g... read more [+]reat tone. When I got the Variax bass I just plugged and started playing, the sounds are dead on! I was amazed at all the different sounds and tones I could get, and save them. I am selling my old effect pedals except my new Harke pedal. The sounds are all great, the 8/12 strings, upright bass track with no delay. The only thing I didn't care for was the synth sounds, they sound fine, I haven't found a use for them. But other than that it is a great playing bass.
The bass feels a lot like a Fender Jass neck. And it is well balanced, and everything about the neck feels really great.
If you play Metal, Jazz, Rock, Blues or whatever this bass covers all your "basses"...sorry couldn't help it. close [-]
