I thot you needed the RJ-45 for the models. I just found out that's not the case. :wacko: nevermind. Good news anyway. Like alotta people the user interface with the 500 and the HD edit are cumbersome. I like the Amplifi much better. Thanks for 'ispiring' me to learn something new silverhead. :)

...between an HD500(X) and the Amplifi FX100 performance wise ? I think I'd dump my 500 for the FX100 just for the excellent iOS interface. I hear they're working on android. Amplifi looks to be the same thing w/o a looper. Anything else ? :blink:

!! They already have it !!. Very cool iOS interface (ipad or iphone) comes with Amplifi and Amplifi X100. The truly bizarre thing is you 'cannot' plug a JTV (or much else) into it. 1/4" in, that's it !! :huh: I sincerely hope they're working on that. There's no way it could be integrated with the current 500s tho. HD600 ? Vote: http://line6.ideascale.com/a/dtd/Interactions-between-JTV-Amplifi-FX100/609700-23508

Well your setup looks exactly like mine did when I first received it (from Sweetwater). I would have sent it back but after playing it for a short while I decided I didn't like the neck at all anyway. The nut end is too narrow (my opinion... and I have skinny fingers) and was cut way too deep at the factory. The strings should not be completely below the top of the nut like that (especially the larger flatwound strings). The excess height at the bridge end was due to the trem posts being too high. Dropping them (just thread them in deeper) would have helped that end but with the crap nut, the buzzing would have been unplayable. I have since replaced the neck with an all maple Warmoth 16/10 compound radius with a 1.75 tusque nut. One thing I don't hear mentioned when swapping the necks on a 69 is that the hole pattern is 'not' identical to a Strat. One of the attachment holes on the 69 is offset and requires a new hole be drilled in the body (no big deal but should be mentioned). If you're otherwise happy with the dimensions and feel of the neck, I would still recommend replacing that nut. There are a couple of ways of fixing it but I would not recommend shimming up the entire nut from underneath because of the excessive depth of the slots. Checkout Youtube for some other ways to 'fill' each slot and re-adjust the depth. It won't be all that it can be with 'that' nut.

Yeah thanks Scott, I thot I remembered seeing a pic of the top part of that knob removed seperately so I thot there might be some trick to it. Thanks again...

Hi Scott, how exactly did you remove it ? It doesn't appear one can just pry it up like any other knob because of the black plastic ring around the base of it.

Got a 15 footer, very nice product. :)

Customer service could be improved. This is not a complaint per se but I have all 6 boxes checked in my email preferences but I've never received a newsletter and I had to check here to find out about the updates. :huh: I'm leary about the update and can only wonder if they're working on a patch. :blink: Think I'll wait awhile and see what happens.

Okeedoke, thanks :)

Do you know what they did to address the issue ? I"ve had a 69 for 2 weeks and the e slipped off once. (coulda been me). I don't see how a nut change could fix it cuz it's not slipping out of the nut. I do need to drop the string height some at the bridge end, maybe that'll help ? I too would endorse Sweetwater as their warranty and after sales tech support is quite good.
