yelldog Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 I know these pop up here and there but I'm checking all the major vendors who sell the JTV-89F and they are all saying unavailable or discontinued. Anyone heard anything? Did I miss an announcement? I've got 2 of these but if they are off the market I have to grab a backup ASAP! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jerseyboy Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Good luck finding an answer. 2013 Yamaha subsidiary relationship is what gives me reason to believe JTV is probably winding down. Some will say they merely build batches of Variax models and when the demand is sufficient another batch will spring forth. I dunno and communicating with Line6 about these matters is often like talking to a pile of Sand. Understandable but frustrating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinon2 Posted March 14, 2019 Share Posted March 14, 2019 Well "unavailable" and "discontinued" aren't the same thing. "Unavailable" could mean just about anything, from "we're waiting on a late shipment" to "we don't carry this item anymore"... either way, neither one means that production has ceased. Regardless, under no circumstances should you ever believe anything a retailer says... in a retail environment, truth is like kryptonite. ;) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
