Long time Line 6 user. Started with version 1 Pod to the HD500. Several Years ago I picked up a USA Roland Ready Strat with GR-30. Bought it to use live, but found myself only using the synth for nylon guitar and some Sax Solos (13pin cable was a hassle as well). Wound up using it to create midi backing tracks I wrote. Used it for writing bass lines, strings, horns, second guitars, etc. Picked up Peavey Bass Module, Roland 1010 and 1080 synth modules to go along with the GR-30. Made some nice tracks http://www.bandmix.com/then_n_now/

By 2009 I was back to just straight guitar. I discovered a couple of Variaxes on Craigslist for under $300 each. They work very nice with the HD500, however, now I'm tethered by the VDI cable :( .

Recently, while looking for a JT Variax on ebay, I stumbled upon a Fishman Triple Play. Made a best offer and got it.

So here I go again. Find a way to work it into a band that has a keyboard player and plays with sequence tracks.
I will say, the tracking is much better than the GK, but I will admit I never had the GK professionally set up.

This Forum is perfect for me. I hope I can add information in the future to help others like some of the posts have already helped me.

Thanx
