RE: Tayler Variaxs vs GR 55



i have never played either becuz i am in the middle of nowhere, but i was very close to buying a variaxe when i bought my zoom amp simulator pedal.....i was turned off by the way a few reviewers said the variaxe felt..... i am not dissing it in any way, i would like to know how it feels from real people that use it for real things instead of unkown reviewers.....i have played guitar since the early 80's, so i feel that i can be picky(im also an accidental punner i guess)....i love the concept of both of these instruments, and would like to know how they feel....real solid wood? good weight to them? good action?...the roland looks pretty sweet, havent looked into it yet.....any users or players could help me, i would appreciate it....i have looked through the posts, and could have missed it....if i am trying to have something repeated i am sorry, plz point me in the right direction

> I use the Godin Multiacs steel with the GR55 and when blended properly it's as good as I can get for the price. My 97 Godin was my first and since that purchase I also own the Multiac Nylon and recently bought the fret less Multioud. I do sometimes run the guitar jack into a LR Baggs Venue to add more acoustic dimension. I also own the LGXT and run it through the VG99 along with the GR55. I have my first solo looping show in 8 years scheduled for March. Now that I am solo I have the time, I had to fit a bad marriage in that past time slot! Looking forward to the show! Last Wed. My brother and I opened for Bert Lams (Cal. Guitar Trio) & Tom Griesgraiber (Chapman stick) and now I have stick envy. Both Per and Tom are listed on the Chapman stick web site. I am going to start a special fund for a future purchase!
