Line6 Variax 700 Bass Guitar - Black



The Variax Bass 700 is a groundbreaking digital modeling instrument using patent pending Line 6 technology to bring you 24 exciting bass sounds ranging from vintage instruments to modern classics, acoustic basses and even synth sounds! It's the only bass you'll ever need! Includes FREE heavy-duty gigbag! A WORLD OF TONE AT EVERY SESSION Ever wish you could take just one bass to a session that could go from round, vintage warmth to modern, active pickup punch? What if you could take that jazz gig and not have to squeeze an acoustic bass in your trunk or on the subway? With Variax Bass 700, you can show up to any live gig or studio date with the confidence your tone will always be perfect for any tune. Best of all, that’s just the beginning of what you can do with a Variax Bass 700. Awe Inspiring Control - MASTER VOLUME - GREEN/RED SELECT Even a control as simple as volume offers you more on Variax Bass. When you press the Volume knob down, the light near the MODEL SELECT knob changes color from green (first model) to red (second variation). MODEL SELECT Its primary function is in choosing the active instrument model. Rotate the knob to choose from the 12 positions, and that handy indicator light will be lighting up the knob so you’ll even be able to see what you’re doing on a dark stage. Each position actually contains two models, just push the Volume knob to select between them. BLEND – PICKUP POSITION – MIC POSITION Most of the basses we’ve modeled have two pickups. Instead of providing individual volume controls for each pickup, we’ve taken the more modern approach of a master Volume and Blend. Rotate the Blend fully clockwise for just the bridge pickup, and fully counterclockwise for just the neck pickup. At the center detent, you get equal amounts of both pickups. Everything in-between is a blend of the two. Several of the modeled basses have only a single pickup. Ordinarily this doesn’t give you much pickup variation, but the Variax Bass is no ordinary instrument. At the center detent, you can hear the pickup in the “stock” position. Rotate the control clockwise to move the pickup closer to the bridge, and counterclockwise to move the pickup closer to the neck. Welcome to the future, my friend. For the acoustic instruments, the Blend control lets you change the position of the modeled microphone. Rotate the control clockwise to bring the mic closer, counterclockwise to pull the mic out for more ambience. TONE The Variax Bass Tone control is split into two separate knobs. The smaller knob on top controls Treble and the large one on the bottom controls Bass. For models based on passive basses, the center detent on the Treble represents 10 on the modeled instrument. Rotating counterclockwise gives you the same results as turning down the passive control. If you rotate clockwise from the detent, you get a treble boost of the modeled instrument. Since passive basses don’t typically have a Bass control, putting this control at center detent makes no modification to the modeled instrument sound. For those of you who prefer enhanced to natural, rotating clockwise boosts bass frequencies, and rotating counterclockwise cuts them. For models based on active basses, the behavior of the tone controls are based on those of the modeled instrument. SAVING THE PERFECT SETUP To really take advantage of the sonic capabilities of the Variax Bass when performing, you’ll want each instrument model to be set up for your specific needs and preferences. Use the Customize function of Variax Bass's model knob to get all 24 models sounding just the way you want. Once you’ve tweaked these settings to perfection, just press the Model Select knob down and hold for a few seconds until the indicator light shines solid green or red. That’s it. Now every time you call up that model, it’s set up just the way you like it. DIRECT TO HOUSE PA AND STAGE RIG WITH THE XPS-DI Variax Bass 700 comes with the XPS-DI unit.
