fruijter7777 Posted June 18, 2022 Share Posted June 18, 2022 Hi there! I 'm planning to buy a Variax guitar but I do not know how to interpret the 'Fully adjustable Tyler-designed tremolo bridge' (for instance of the JTV-69). How good is it compared with the 'Floyd Rose licensed double-locking tremolo system' (of the JTV-89F)? Or is the detuning problem using the tremelo no issue at all, because the Variax wonder-guitar regulates itself? I really don't know and hope you do!

psarkissian Posted June 20, 2022 Share Posted June 20, 2022 They're good, I like them both, and I'm very much a non tremolo kind of player. No need for detune, since Variax has Alt Tune mode. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brue58ski Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 The tremolo on the JTV-69 is fine. It stays in tune (the nut is that "slippery material so the strings don't catch) and not at the "cheap" end of tremolos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, then I'll go for the JTV-69 (whenever it's available again in Holland...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
