Damnit. Line6 customer service was good in getting me a free part even after the warranty expired, but it still is not working properly. They are at a loss as to why it is not working and suggest a service center which are like rinky dink electronic stores a minimum hour's drive away. Might be cheaper to get a new Variax 300 or even abandon the whole idea of guitar modelling. It worked great while it lasted though.

that sucks, might be worth it though to get it fixed. that machine sounds exellent.

There is a place in mid-town Manhattan that will give it a try if I am interested. $95/hour plus parts though. :eek:

guitar modeling has it's place.
I have one.
But I dont think I would use one live or on a final recording.

I use them for direct-in scratch tracks mostly.

a mic'd up tube amp just sounds more betterer to me.

Apparently some credit cards provide for automatic warranty extension. So I filed for a claim. According to the customer service clerk, I will get reimbursed for the repair bill. I will have to see it to believe it, but at least they did not outright reject the claim so far. :)
