James Tyler Designed Electric Guitar

Used! Just in on consignment from one of our regular clients. This guitar is in excellent shape without any serious issues, damage, wear or repairs. Just well cared for and barely used – still has original protective plastic on many of the plastic parts. Comes with all the extra stuff – pictured with the case. These are fantastically versatile instruments and perfect for writing songs, coming up with ideas, doing tracks or live use where you might need a number of different instruments and having one guitar that can practically replicate the sounds of literally hundreds of different instruments would be the most handy. It sounds great. The tunings are great. Just an all-around inspirational guitar to play around on.

The JTV-59 James Tyler Variax Modeling Electric Guitar offers an innovative design and boutique playing experience courtesy of master luthier James Tyler, and the world’s most advanced guitar modeling technology from the people who invented it, Line 6. Plug this guitar into any amp and hear all the models, all the tunings, as well as all the acoustic and electric tones you’ve ever wanted. No more dragging around multiple acoustics and electrics to gigs or recording studios. Variax gives you an endless variety of sounds from classic acoustic and electric tones, to sitar and banjo, all in one instrument.

The JTV features a carved maple top, mahogany back, and a set mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard. A contoured heel makes reaching the upper frets a breeze. The JTV-59 is loaded with a pair custom-wound humbuckers designed by James Tyler. (Wound to Tyler’s specs). Controls include a 3-way toggle pickup selector switch, a master volume & tones. A rotary model selector dials the 25 virtual guitars plus sitar, banjo, and resonator guitar tones. Pressing the Model knob switches between models and magnetic pickups. The rotary alt tuning selector lets you pick from 12 alternate tunings. The fully adjustable Tyler Custom stoptail bridge is fitted with an L.R. Baggs Radiance Hex piezo pickup system for sweet acoustic guitar tones. A Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut keeps the strings from gripping and sticking. Comes standard with a durable, padded gig bag with a stitched Line 6 logo and 2 pockets big enough for all your gig essentials.

The Alt Tune Knob

Each James Tyler Variax modeling guitar has a dedicated Alt Tune knob. This knob has 12 settings, including two labeled “Model” and “Standard.” 10 settings are the most commonly used alternate tunings. You can also create your own alternate tunings using Variax Workbench virtual guitar workbench software. These tunings are stored on your Variax’s Model knob. The Virtual capo feature lets you easily transpose any song to the key that suits your vocalist. And you can adjust your tuning on the fly without having to do so on the “Workbench” software.

Battery powered DSP

A proprietary lithium-ion battery delivers at least 12 hours of continuous performance. A 4-LED battery life meter lets you know how much rocking time you have left. Rolling down the volume knob when not playing will automatically put the DSP to sleep and helps maximize battery life. So even with your cable still plugged in, you will not be using battery power. DSP wakes up instantly when you turn the volume back up. The JTV-59 functions as a standard electric guitar whether the battery installed or not.
