How is the Variax for picking up the little nuances of ones playing style/attack? Always wondered that...Especially heavy music where palm muting and harmonics are very pronounced.

The Variax is excellent but it doesn't catch every little thing.
With that said.. I would have absolutely no problem with using it live and I totally intend on doing just that.

It would be cool to see a hybrid...Just to be able to toggle over to a pup would make it the ultimate...maybe even the ability to run both and balance between them.

Me too Pete but its really close to real sounding. The only thing so far that I am unimpressed with is the 12 string models. They sound synthetic to me. I love the alternate tunings and so many of the guitar models are excellent. Building custom guitars on Workbench is a blast. Having the XTL switch the guitar models automatically for me is so damn cool. I like the XTL much better than the GT-6. I actually like it as much as my Vetta.
