Can Line 6 please add more Bass amps from different brands, such as Trace Elliot, Warwick WA 600, and Hartke please. That would be awesome! Thanks.
Thanks for your comment.
I think there will come more Bass stuff in future. Please post it on Ideascale. The more people vote your Ideas the more likley is that they will model it.

Classic 1958 Fender® 5C3 Tweed Deluxe? A 5C3 would be 1954 and earlier. By 1958, they were all the highly desirable 5E3 narrow panel Deluxes that the Grammatico La Grange was based one.
Thanks for your comment. I was thinking that it would be a 1953 too but official realease note from Line 6 says it’s 1958:
https://line6.com/support/page/kb/effects-controllers/helix/helixhx-280-release-notes-r913/
I found another place where Line 6 indicated that 1958 is a typo…the 5C3 modeled was a 1953, not 1958.
Link?

But I don’t know who the referenced DI and Ben are, but they mentioned facebook. I couldn’t find a facebook post about this.
I corrected the list and will update the pdf-file when I’m at home. Thanks for pointing this out.
Found the statement from Ben on Facebook:
