Sold: Line 6 Helix

Cabicular

I've dealt with Paul before and you can buy with confidence. Never a problem
Bought a Two Rock and a Bad Cat from him and both deals were solid

Hmmm, I am so tempted by this. Been looking at Helix LT's new, but this isn't too much more than one of them. When does the e-bay sale end? I may try to swing this with "she who must be obeyed. "

Friday at 10:15pm - I must have had a couple of glasses of wine....

@TPReggie please buy this, seeing it not selling at this low price is making me sad.

Now pulled from EBay as I'm sure one of you lovely people will want this at some point...

I am out for work today and tomorrow. Will try to speak to the missus tomorrow, and figure out if i can scrape the cash together and give you a definitive answer this weekend. In the meantime I have sent you a couple of question on pm if that is ok

Hi Reg, Yep, I have PM'd you back.

Waiting for the next forum member to embark on their Helix adventure. Not much this can't do. GAS cure.....

Yes, sorry guys, am not going for this as I have decided an LT is adequate for my needs, and as I am trying to keep as much cash back as i can to go toward a cheaper Gretsch in part trade I am taking the cheaper Helix option Best of luck with the sale Paul, I am sure someone will pick it up from you

Full fat Helix is so much more user friendly

Really? How so, and why? This is something difficult to fathom for me you see, as I dont have one. I currently have an HD500. Watching the various Line 6 videos, such as this one, it seems all I am really missing out on in external functionality and scribble strips.

Can you expand at all on your comment - or anyone else who may be able to point out things to me that are differences that I am not aware of - or that aren't being advertised by Line 6 as differences?

The lt and the full fat are the same pretty much

Dominic

Mainly the scribble strips........I'm not very tech and to me half the beauty is to see what you have programmed to where so easily and clearly ........it's one of the things that always put me off axefx ............just feels neater and more organised for the sake of a small amount of money
but, the unit itself is chunkier and more substantial ,wah pedal etc
there are loads more serious differences for outs and paths but that is way beyond me and most people's needs
I would just rather pay the money for a secondhand full fat than similar for the LT

firepaulmusic

When Paul Hindmarsh demonstrated the Helix to me he had guitar, bass, vocals (with harmonies and effects, acoustic guitar, backing tracks all routed and controlled by the unit. Unbelievable amount of processing power if you need, want or can understand how to use it...

Bump....:-)

I thought the interface/OS was exactly the same?

John_A

The UI is the same, but the scribble strips are worth the difference in price alone IMO, and for me the discount on Helix Native is worth considering

firepaulmusic

Bump with a couple of options for trades...
