"With the Variax, you can summon up 24 different guitar models (and a few more exotic stringed instruments). The facility to scroll through 11 alternate tunings on the fly also provides a much-needed relief to having standby guitars in different tunings or painfully reworking a part every time the singer wants to change the key!" -Guitar Magazine

This guitar is in pretty good shape, but there is some thin swirling and scratching throughout the body. This thing has been played. We have pictured the scratches to our best ability, but the guitar is fully functional and plays like a dream! The frets have lots of life left in them and the electronics give this guitar a total leg up on your papa's axe. Comes with battery pack charger and gigbag. 

This guitar weighs 7LBS 10oz.

Below is some helpful information from Line 6's free documentation on this guitar.

Line 6 Variax Standard Pilot's Guide:

1. Volume - Adjusts the signal level output of your guitar.

2. Tone - Adjusts the amount of high frequency pass-through.

3. Guitar Model Selector - Push in this knob (LED is lit) to access any of
the ten Variax guitar model banks, or one of two user definable custom
model banks.
When in Variax mode, the Guitar Model Selector LED illuminates the
active guitar model bank. There are five models per bank, as defined
by the Pickup Selector Switch position. Press the Guitar Model
Selector knob again (LED is not lit) to use the magnetic pickups.

4. Alternate Tuning - When in Variax mode, you can use the Alternate
Tuning Knob to instantly access ten pre-loaded alternate tunings
on the fly. Missing your favorite tuning? No problem! You can store
your own custom tunings here as well. More on that later. Be sure you
amplify your signal enough to drown out the natural acoustics of your
guitar or you might hear some odd modulations from it blending with
the amplified sound.
When set to MODEL, your Variax guitar’s tuning is determined by
the current guitar model and Selector Switch position. To see this
in action, enter Variax mode and select the CUSTOM 2 model bank,
which is the only bank pre-loaded with alternate tunings from the factory.
Toggle your selector switch to preview the tunings pre-loaded with
each model. You can assign alternate tunings to any guitar in the
Guitar Model Selector banks using the Line 6 Variax Workbench
HD software (see the “Variax Workbench HD Application” section).
To bypass the Alternate Tuning feature, simply set the Alternate
Tuning Knob to STANDARD. In Standard mode, every Variax model
plays in standard tuning, including any alt-tuned models like the ones
in the Custom 2 bank.

5. Pickup Selector Switch - In analog mode, the selector enables your
magnetic pickups as shown below (1=bridge / 5=neck).
Variax Standard
In Variax mode, this switch has unique properties for each model.

6. Analog Output - Plug in a standard 1/4 inch guitar cable here.

7. VDI Digital Output - For connecting to Line 6 hardware that offers a
Variax Digital Interface (VDI). Use only a Line 6 Variax digital cable.
Note: If connecting to the included Line 6 Variax VDI USB interface,
you need to have a charged battery within the guitar. Plug a 1/4 inch
cable into the guitar to enable the Variax electronics to power on. If
connecting to a Line 6 Helix®, POD® HD, or Firehawk® device, power is
be supplied via the VDI, thus, no battery is required
