Key Features
The guitar of the future. The Line 6 Shuriken SR250 Variax is well ahead of its time, containing technological features and capabilities unlike any other guitar. The result of a collaboration between Steve MacKay of legendary band Twelve Foot Ninja and Line 6, it could well revolutionise your playing. Using the unique, groundbreaking guitar modelling technology which is built into the guitar itself, you'll be able to reproduce the sounds of various electric guitars and stringed instruments at the turn of a dial. You'll also be able to access virtually any tuning without touching the tuners, as well as a host of other effects. In essence, this guitar is like an effects pedal, multiple instruments, and an electric guitar fused together.
Open the door to a universe of new sounds. The single Mid-Gain humbucker pickup and piezo on this futuristic machine gives it plenty of tonal power, no matter which setting you are using. It also has a longer, baritone scale length, making it sound incredibly tight and easy to play. With a 'C' shaped maple neck and Indian ebony fretboard, you'll have no trouble moving to each fret. The sealed locking tuners will also help you to stay in tune for extended periods of playing. This guitar is something special, and it will give you more capabilities as a musician than you could ever imagine.

Unheard of. Make no mistake, the Shuriken SR250 Variax is far more than just a guitar. It is a new type of instrument with unbelievable capabilities. Using the model control and five-way selector switch, you'll be able to access a universe of sound which will revolutionise your music making. Multiple tuning presets, selected by Stevic McKay himself, allow you to chop and change your tuning as you see fit. The Post Modern Spank preset, for example, emulates a DADGBE tuning, whilst Collateral emulates AEEEEE, with the fifth string muted. This removes the need to bring multiple guitars to shows, and you'll be able to expand your musical horizons as a result.
Innovate. Being able to select different instrument sounds with the controls, you'll have an orchestra of sound at your fingertips. Whether it’s an ethereal 12 string guitar sound or a savage drop tuned metal axe tone you're after, you'll have it all with this incredible creation. With it, you can let your creativity soar.
