  1. Thanks psar..! To verify my understanding: All the digital models use the piezo pickups in the bridge, the coil pickups are not used. Stringing the guitar with a set where the high E is .009 or .010 will provide the optimum contact/pressure for the piezos to work properly. Question: will the same size strings be the best for my Variax acoustic?
  2. I've got a JTV-59 (Les Paul-style body) and a JTV-69 (Strat-style). On both the high E is quieter than the other strings. On the JTV-59 I cranked out the pickup pole-piece (both pickups) and got the volume pretty close. Since the single coil pickups on the JTV-69 don't have adjustable pole-pieces, that's not an option anyway. I have to believe that there's an adjustment in the electronics somewhere which would let me (or an approved technician) equalize the volume without such a brute-force adjustment.
  3. I'm playing along nicely, and the sound stops. It used to come back after a while, but now it doesn't play at all. The dial is lit, batteries are fresh. I asked at the local Line 6 approved repair center, and the tech says he can't get parts and doesn't have circuit diagrams, so he can't do anything. If I send it in, can the company technicians repair it?
  4. So I assign the tuning to a model, then upload the model to the JTV, then change the model to not use the tuning? Sheesh.
  5. I created a custom tuning. I stashed it in the last tuning setting--"Baritone" on the dial. There isn't a model that uses it, I just dial it up for special occasions. I have a new Variax JTV-59. I downloaded from Workbench HD. The custom tuning isn't on the new ax. Why not?
  6. Is there any estimate as to when batteries will become available again? Thanks!
  7. Cameron Sino brand are the only ones available on eBay.
  8. Sweetwater also has them listed as backordered. Where can I get one?
  9. Thanks for the detail. And for being patient with all of us. :)
  10. Also, $100 for a battery + charger at Sweetwater. Sheesh.
  11. The batteries and chargers are out of stock on the Line 6 Web site. There are a bunch that claim to be compatible on that site that starts with A... I need a spare battery & charger, since I'm selling my JTV-69 but keeping my JTV-59 and the charger and battery have to go with the 69.
  12. The contact points (two in and one flat) appear to be the same, polarity correct. They seem to charge properly on the Line6 charger. They came up in a search for Variax batteries but do not claim to be compatible. And apparently they aren't. Sheesh.
  13. I found some camera batteries that look the same as the Variax batteries: NP-F550/F570. Same form factor, same 7.4 voltage. Why won't they work? Seems to slide right in, no response from the Variax.
  14. I got my HD500X today, downloaded the software and tried the drag & drop. It worked and the "some I/O differences" bit me. My PRO X rack patches used front and back (just in case I had to switch) and that's not an option in HD500X so the input got set to "Variax" only. I had to go through and change all the inputs. After that, everything was A-OK.
  15. Topic says it all. I see that there is different computer software for editing, so I'm guessing the answer is "no" but I'll be happy to be wrong about that.
