Line 6 Variax JTV-59 James Tyler Variax Black 2011 Electric
Here for sale we have a Line 6 Variax JTV-59 James Tyler in Black finish. Made in Indonesia in 2011, this guitar features a set-neck construction comprising a Mahogany body with Carved Maple top, Mahogany and 22 fret Rosewood fingerboard. Chrome hardware is fitted including a Tyler-designed wraparound bridge and sealed tuning machines. A pair of vintage-voice humbucking pickups are installed, as well as an L.R. Baggs Radiance Hex piezo pickups system. These are wired to a 3-way toggle switch, master volume & master tone controls, as well as rotary Variax controls to select the guitar model & alternate tunings. The ‘59 neck profile feels chunky and round in the hand, and the gloss finish makes for a slick and comfortable playing surface. The medium jumbo fret wire gives you plenty to work with for vibrato and string bending techniques, whilst the single cutaway & contoured neck heel combination provides unrestricted access to the upper register. The Rosewood of the fingerboard is pleasant under the fingers, and with its 12" radius feels traditional for an instrument of this style whilst being both practical & comfortable for chordal and melodic playing. The humbuckers deliver classic LP-style tones, with a thick and creamy sounds but not overly hot output. The basses are rich and powerful, the midrange punchy and the highs crisp and articulate. The Variax rotary switches allow you to seamlessly reinvent the guitar, with preset models of classic electric and acoustic guitars and the option to build your own presets in the Workbench HD software. Alongside the guitar modelling options, you can also change the tuning of the guitar using the rear rotary switch, offering quickfire alternate tunings when playing live. A surprisingly versatile and usable instrument even in 2025.
