The shorter cable and interface device are for connecting to the computer to use the Monkey and Workbench HD applications.

1. No.
2. Re-Flashing v1.7x should work with old Workbench,... up to a point. JTV-69 being newer, features that work
better in Workbench HD, than with old Workbench.
-The neck won't affect the acoustic sound patch on the 69 beyond intonation. There is no portability between
old and new Variax patches, even going back to v1.7x, using old Workbench. There is no interchangeability like
that between old and new patches. People have tried that early on, it didn't work.
-
Afraid not, no line level outs on these.
-
Sounds like the battery.
Register your product in your Line 6 account, then log a Support ticket.
Check with Full Compass for a 98-034-0009 part, as the Line 6 Store is presently out of stock.

The US built ones use Hip Shots. I forget which model number.
Minimal info, no model number on that.

I don't.
But then I have Variax and a couple of the kind of real guitars that are modeled. But nice to jump through some different guitars
during the course of a piece of music when using Variax. I try my best to give them all equal playing time.
Beginning to see the fun that Steve Howe and Trevor Rabin have doing that, as they both have their collection of guitars,.... and Variaxes.
Mr Howe has a 700 Electric and a JTV, and Mr Rabin has a blue JTV-69.

Hope so too.

See if you can exchange them for mediums. Sales people in retail stores don't always have tech background.
I tend to seek out those that do when I deal with retail.

Either a short on the control board, loose retainer nuts under the knobs resulting in intermittent chassis ground,
or a failing control board to main board cable. Take it to a Line 6 authorized service center to have that checked.

No. The gas to vacuum ratio won't be right.
I'll need to compare data sheet in the morning. Shuguang might be,.... might be a substitute, but I need to confirm the data sheet curves first.
Panic buying is the worst.
Check with Full Compass, I'll have to dig out the Line 6 part number in the morning.
-
An older product like that, solder joints will be oxidizing and intermittent contacts will occur.
Needs to be taken to a Line 6 authorized service center.

Yes, the same piezos.
Yes, the back-up of cargo ships is starting to get better. Now it's about catching up
with it all.
-
Mini bar good.
DO NOT use those other two. They are NOT Line 6 supplies.
Will it damage the guitar,... maybe, to some diodes or transistors on the main board. They are mainly unreliable over time.
DO NOT use it.
229 Kronen is a lot for that AC supply, and it's not even a real Line 6 supply. DO NOT use it.

Log a Support ticket in your account. That will have to be serviced.

This area is for earlier Variax, not JTV's.
Updates from the Line 6 site are Flash updates or program, but no "new sounds".
Workbench HD applications is for creating and loading customizing patches and creating new sounds from that.
-
-No portability of Models between old and current Variax.
-May have a 1st generation bridge, so be certain there is a tremolo bar with it, as there are no more replacements.
Gave the last one to Sinbad. Current bridge is 3rd generation, a change in how the piezo cable is routed to the main board.
-Current fret end dressing spec was implemented in 2012.
-Firmware updated,... after v2.00 it became HD series of product compatible, so it communicates more smoothly with HD products.
-Main board version was updated for hardware in 2012.
Have a JTV-69 from 2010 myself, and it's been just fine, no problems. Keep it maintained and Firmware up to date, it's great.

Intonation or string nut, and being in 12-string mode just brings out more.
I use barred harmonics at frets 12, 7 and 5, in12-string mode to check for frequency
artifacts like that when I service Variax guitars here. It brings out things like that.
-
Capo solving it,... that would point to a string nut slot starting to get worn, which is possible,
as you guitar is a second hand guitar with a built date of 2017.

1) Is the Alt Tune engaged? If so, it may be 'dual tone effect', where you hear the sound from the strings in standard tuning,
while hearing the Alt Tune sound from the amp. Using headphones or turning up the amp minimizes the effect.
2) Do you have the Shuriken bundle loaded? If so, select User III, toggle-1, and tell me which string is sounding.
3) The intonation may need to be checked.
-
Should be 4mm hex wrench.

A 700 should play thru a 500X, but connecting to Monkey and Workbench won't work,
so it all has to be done thru the interface device.
Old Workbench will not work with Windows 10. The highest it can go is Windows 7 or 8.
Both Apple and Microsoft no longer support 32-bit systems, it's all 64-bit now.
Just got my 59JTV-US
