In 2002, Line 6 launched Variax modeling guitars. These groundbreaking instruments offered guitarists an unprecedented range of tones based on the most desirable electric and acoustic guitars on the planet. To develop the latest evolution of Variax guitars, Line 6 partnered with legendary luthier James Tyler to craft an exceptional instrument and the perfect delivery system for Variax technology.
Award-winning Variax guitar modeling technology
Line 6 set the goal posts for digital guitar modeling, and the latest evolution of this technology gives the James Tyler Variax JTV 59 unprecedented tone-crafting potential.
At a twist of its simple and intuitive selector knob, JTV 59 transforms its tone with 25 award-winning electric and acoustic guitar models, giving you a virtual guitar collection to rival the gear rack of any top studio. Need to roll from country twang ’n’ spank to thick bluesy wail to resonator-style shimmer and chime in the course of the same song? The JTV 59US takes you there and beyond, instantly.
Each model offers nuance-perfect tone inspired by the most desired vintage acoustic and electric guitars, and it does so with more accuracy and tonal purity than ever before (thanks to the ultra-sensitive and more reliable new L.R. Baggs Radiance Hex (polyphonic) piezo pickups loaded into the bridge saddles of JTV 59).

JTV-59 is built along the lines of the
archetypal singlecut, set-neck guitar with 24-9/16 inch scale length,
and it employs the tonewoods that have made the format legendary since
the 1950s. It has a mahogany body with carved maple top, and a set
mahogany neck with 22-fret rosewood fingerboard. Optimum playability is
ensured by the smooth, rounded Tyler ’59 neck profile and comfortably
contoured neck heel, while highly efficient 16:1 tuners and a James
Tyler Custom stoptail bridge keep it all rock solid and resonant. Taking it all to your choice of amplification are a pair of alnico humbucking pickups, wound to James Tyler’s specs along the lines of classic PAFs, but with a little extra punch in the bridge position. Add it all up, and it’s a supreme player’s machine, even before the Variax guitar modeling enters the game. |
