cubbini Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I really love the sounds in my V700 - especially the acoustic sounds. I also have a JTV69s. To me, the acoustic sounds are clanky, with some kind of slight dobro/banjo reverb-y sound that I do not like. 1. I've read that it is possible to flash the JTV69s back (To version 1.72 or something like that)so that it sounds just like the 700. 2. Would I then lose some functionality? In particular, (a) the ability to adjust string volumes per patch, (b) the use of the tuning selector knob, and (c) the "quick capo" feature (d) the ability to blend in/out the magnetic pickups? (e) I would then have to use Workbench, NOT Workbench HD? Thanks!! I use 9s on both guitars - can't change that...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psarkissian Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 Using 9's,... your acoustic sounds can sound banjo/dobro 'ish. Recommended string set would be 10's or 11's. If you manage to go back to Flash v1.72, you would have to use Workbench. but you would still be using the 69 model patches, not 700's, as there is no portability old and new patches.

cubbini Posted March 24, 2022 Author Share Posted March 24, 2022 Does that mean that the acoustic "impulses" would remain the same, and would not sound any different than they do now? Thanks....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psarkissian Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 You mean the model patch? Correct. Can't use old Variax patches in newer Variax guitars, as they a different. Different hardware and programming than the old Variax. Different guitars internally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
