Hello everyone. I had to travel to another city for a gig, I took my POD HD500X with me and unfortunately it fell to the ground. The corner hit the ground and the screen is broken, it's driving me crazy. Do you know what kind of lcd screen the POD HD500X uses and where can I buy it? (preferably online) Thank you in advance. Ps. Excuse my english.

I'm having an issue with my JTV69 where the signal is clipping when I play it really hard. It's most noticeable on the 3rd and 4th strings. I noticed it when using the VDI cable and it seemed like using the 1/4" it wasn't happening. But I noticed that when the alternate tuning knob is enabled it's happening regardless of how the guitar is connected. I've tried it into multiple sources (HD500, regular amp, Guitar Rig), and I have a JTV59 that doesn't do this. So I've isolated it to a problem with the JTV69. So I dropped it off at the Guitar Center where I bought it, it's about 4 months old so should still be under warranty. I thought to check on Line 6's site today and noticed that Guitar Center isn't listed as a service center in my area. Their tech hasn't looked at it yet so they haven't contacted me one way or the other yet. I just don't want it to sit there for a few weeks to be told that they don't even do service work for JTV's. Anyway, that's a very long way to ask a short question: Does anyone know if Guitar Center can actually work on JTV's or should I have just contacted Line 6 directly?

Do I need an RMA number (Return Material Authorization) for a repair or replacement? Yes. Line 6 requires that all end users, dealers and service centers have a valid RMA attached to all products shipped to the Line 6 Service Department. The RMA allows for the hardware to be tracked throughout our various systems until resolution. We are not responsible for units sent in without an RMA number. Hardware will be returned to sender if sent without an RMA. How do I contact the factory? You can reach our staff at https://line6.com/company/contact/ via phone, email ticket, chat or text to request an RMA. We are open for phone calls 8am - 12pm Pacific time, Monday - Friday, excluding holidays. You must be signed in and have your unit registered to your Line 6 account before contacting us so we can verify that your contact and shipping information is current. What information will I have to provide when contacting Line 6 for an RMA? You will need to have the unit registered to your Line 6 account. Don't have an account? Create one here. You will need to ensure your full name, shipping address, email address and phone number are updated on your Line 6 account.

What information do I include? After you are issued your RMA number by an authorized Line 6 service representative, we require that you include the RMA number on the outside of the shipping box.

Calabasas, CA 91302 RMA # [FILL IN YOUR RMA number] How do I ship my unit to Line 6? Package the unit in a box with adequate packing material to insulate it from possible freight damage. You can use services such as FedEx, UPS or USPS to send in your gear. We suggest you use a method of shipping that is traceable in transit to ensure you have visibility of your package. Line 6 is NOT RESPONSIBLE for freight damage due to insufficient packaging. End users are 100% responsible for protecting their gear in transit. Who pays for the freight? Non-warranty: The purchaser/user assumes responsibility for freight to and from the factory. Warranty: The purchaser/user assumes responsibility for freight to the factory. Line 6 will cover the return freight. How do I get an estimate on the repair cost? Estimates cannot be given until we have the unit in hand.

See the contact information above to reach Customer Service, and always have your RMA number ready. How long will it take to complete the repair? Repair time varies based on a number of factors such as parts availability, your place in the repair queue, etc., but we strive to provide a maximum three-week turnaround (not including shipping time). If we determine that your unit needs to be replaced, the turnaround time is typically a bit shorter. How will I get my unit back? Line 6 uses UPS ground for U.S. return requests. The shipping time is 5-7 days (not including processing time). What if I don't live in the U.S.? Product warranty is only good in the country/region of purchase. So if you bought your unit in France, the warranty is only valid in France. If you bought your unit in a country other than the U.S. and wish to get the unit repaired in the U.S., you will have to pay for the repair at an authorized Line 6 Service Center. If you are looking to repair your unit in the country of purchase (non U.S.), please refer to our Distributor and/or Service Center Finder for assistance in your area.

Important Warranty Information! Please be aware that your Line 6 product’s warranty is only valid in the region where you purchased your unit. For instance, if you live in Brazil, but buy your unit from a U.S.-based retailer, then you must have warranty repairs performed in the U.S., meaning you must ship it there. Otherwise, you’d have to pay to have it repaired closer to home. Prices for parts and repairs are set by the independent service center, and they reserve the right to choose what they repair. If you live outside the U.S., you should be interacting with the distributor for the country/territory that you live in. The distributor for your country/territory sets the warranty period and its rules according to local law. It is for this reason that Line 6 recommends that you always buy your unit locally. Distributors can be found at http://line6.com/find/distributor/. You will need to present your original, dated proof of purchase to have any warranty work performed at any Line 6 Authorized Service Center for repair. FAQs Q: Where can I read your warranty? A. Standard Warranty downloads: English Japanese German Chinese French Spanish Q. What is the general Line 6 Warranty statement for the U.S.? A. Line 6 warrants that your new Line 6 product, along with its included power supplies and cables used to supply power, when purchased at an authorized Line 6 retailer located in the Territory, shall be free of defects in materials and workmanship for a period of One (1) Year from the original date of purchase. Vacuum tubes, as well as accessories included in product boxes, including, but not limited to, USB data cables, allen wrenches and foot rubbers are warrantied for a period of ninety (90) days from the original date of purchase or unless local statutory law requires otherwise. The Warranty DOES NOT Cover: Damage from physical abuse such as dropping the unit, impact from hard objects or damage to external components as a result of negligence.

Q: Are Line 6 warranties transferable?

Q: Do I get a warranty if I bought a unit from eBay? A: Line 6 honors warranties from authorized retailers only. Some authorized retailers have an eBay presence, so units purchased new from them are covered by our warranty. If you purchase a unit on eBay from a non-authorized retailer or an individual, you do so at your own risk. Please contact us if you want to verify if an online retailer is authorized to sell our products. Q: Do I get a warranty if I bought a unit used? A: The only way to redeem warranty on a used item is to present a copy of the original purchase receipt, dated within the product warranty period. If you fail to get such a receipt, the manufacturers warranty will not be honored. Often, authorized retailers can provide such copies to the original purchaser. Q: What do I do if I need a repair? A: Please refer to our Product Repair FAQ for detailed instructions. Q: Does Line 6 offer extended warranties? A: Yes, extended warranties for certain products are sold on our web shop. Please see this article for details.

Q: Is Biasing covered under warranty? A: Typically not. It should be considered as part of the routine maintenance in keeping your amplifier at its peak performance. However, if re-biasing is required as part of other warranty service, it will be covered under the warranty policy. Q: My tubes are not working (i.e. not lighting up, no output, etc). A: Check the following: Make sure the tube is firmly seated in the tube socket Other tube situations: My tubes make a popping sound accompanied by intermittent light from tubes - the tube is failing and needs to be replaced. The appearance of 'white frost' inside the tube - the tube has cracked and it must be replaced. General Guideline for Replacing Tubes: Always replace power amp tubes with matched set(s) every 12-24 months depending on the amount of use, and have the bias checked and/ or adjusted by an Authorized Line 6 Service Center. Preamp tubes (such as the two 12AX7s) only need to be replaced when they are microphonic (ringing sound from tubes when tapped), noisy, or damaged.
