I just ordered a new JTV-59 tobacco sunburst the other day and have already received it. Formerly, I only sat back and lusted over one of these guitars because funds just didn't permit purchasing one. You know, typical married with children scenario. As it turned out, my Mother-In-Law came into a bit of cash and decided to buy me one. I am sooooooo thankful to her. I tried talking her out of it because of the expense but she insisted. Anyway, I received the guitar right after the new updates were released. Sweetwater went ahead and updated all the guitars they have in stock, checked my guitar over thoroughly, set it up (fantastic job, might I add...plays like butter). I cannot begin to tell you how much I love this guitar. I cannot wait for the guys in my band to hear it sing. They were used to hearing my original Variax 500 and I know they will like the new edition to their band.
As far as the models changing, what models are in the presets now? Is there a picture chart for the new edition like the old original variax color chart?
