Very disappointed with the Variax. 1) I did not even get to try it through my Helix as I could not get it to stay in tune. No matter how I tweeked the intonation, it would not play in tune up and down the neck. 2) Top E and B very thin sounding even after adjusting pickups to compensate. Same in Variax mode. 3) Body vibrates when hitting certain notes. 4) Tried adjusting truss rod for some relief in neck, no movement. … I usually buy my guitars from where I can try them, but this time I thought "It's a Yamaha" it should be fine. £400 bucks is enough to buy a decent guitar but I'm afraid this particular one is just a pile of CR**! sorry for the expletive. To rub salt into the wound I made the mistake of taking the plecshield plastic off. "It's a Yamaha" again I thought, it'll be fine!... So I will not be able to return it in a new condition as my funky chops have scratched said plate. Can't fault your service, quick and easy, but 400bucks wasted. Best Ian.

Great for me.... Needs a bit more adjusting for fret buzz etc and setup but that should be expected I guess. Great toy for home playing and recording and probably gigging... (but I can't comment on that)

Getting a lot for your money at this discounted price (£329) but only if you use the digital offerings this guitar has otherwise just get a decent mex strat. Otherwise the actual guitar is not bad it’s just like a standard Pacifica in feel/build quality
