Will all £799 JTV's have that nice actionheight adjusted from factory? I swore to never touch line6 again after their arrogance regarding not getting win7 drivers for workbench (there still is none..). Also, maybe better i ask on this page instead of the 5th part - is this the korean version (£799 comes up in your video as advertise frequently) or the 2.5xcost US you're demoing?

Im glad they aknwoledge the ploink from the piezos now (when most old models are sold out). That said - i want one :d

@vileguile I am demoing the Korean version ;-)

[Jimihendrix6699]

idk, maybe it's jsut me, but i didn't think it sounded that great. i t didn't really have any balls. maybe it was the way it was EQ'd.

Customer Reviews:

I ordered one of these in January and received it at the end of April. It was definitely worth the wait. I love this guitar. If you are a Les Paul guy like me, this guitar will feel very familiar. The finish is beautiful with the caramel binding against the black. The factory set up was very nice although I had to lower the action ...

@mcflopper He's playing the Korean version in this; he says it in the video, and he answered someone else saying that it was the Korean version

[mcflopper]

I see where Andertons sells both the USA built and the Korean built JTV59. So which one is in the video? I find it hard to beleive that a mass produced Korean built guitar is the best guitar you've played at Andertons! I could understand a US built JTV59 coming out of James Tyler custom as being that good, but that guitar sells for almost $5k here in the US. So, which one is in the video?

[portage600]

Chappers, is this still the nicest guitar you have played? I was thinking of getting the 59 but now im leaning to the 89 because the way you have to access the different pickup configurations for different models. do you find this a problem when trying to switch on the fly?

@Earth Suburb That headstock has been the Regular headstock on Tylers for 20 years and is associated with $10000+ guitars

[EarthSuburb]

Most the people who make musical instruments demos use the worst cheapest recording tools ... It looks like they all want to talk about quality, but they don't want to invest in a couple of real good recording devices. For the guys who watch these demos, the video quality isn't important (although ... it's better with a nice video quality), BUT, the sound quality of the recording is what really counts.

Equipment ... let's see : any Camcoder + SONY PCM-D50, would be JUST FINE !!!

[EarthSuburb]

The Variax is really a great guitar. BUT ...

They've got to come up with something else for the headstock of the JTV-69 (the strat-style one).

MAN ! The headstock just look CHEAP.

I don't know ... maybe paint it in black with some binding, OR JUST ANOTHER SHAPE.

It looks just like a 100$ Stagg or whatsoever headstock (I mean, I have nothing against cheap instruments ... kids must have tools that suit to their pocket money).

Change that ugly headstock !!! And I buy one in black. PROMISED.

would be great if you would do the L6 trifecta hd pod + dt50 + jtv

[BlindSummit197]

@dleahcimfrost Thank you !

[dleahcimfrost]

@BlindSummit197 - You can use either a standard jack or you can use the line 6 chord which plugs into a pod or vetta. the standard jack will then use the battery to access all the models, but you don't need the battery to just play through the pickups. the line 6 chord that plugs into the pod also powers the guitar so you are not using the battery. Yes it works on any amp as well
