paulmackay1979 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 my variax has been running relatively well, apart from a delicate pickup selector and not being able to run v2.0. but just yesterday when I turned on the variax I have no output on the g string, if I hit it hard enough I get a very quiet short distorted tone, does this mean my piezos are also faulty now and if so any idea how much to get a service/repair on a jtv59 in the uk?

cruisinon2 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 1] does this mean my piezos are also faulty now 2] and if so any idea how much to get a service/repair on a jtv59 in the uk? 1] Certainly sounds like that's the case. 2] Don't know, but "more than it should" is a safe bet...I'm guessing you're out of warranty?

paulmackay1979 Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 yeh, pretty sure I will be out of warranty, not impressed with this at all, had quite a lot of problems since buying this, don't think ill be buying another one, by the looks of things ill be stuck using just the pups, ive just raised a ticket so itll be interesting to see what line 6 say about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie_Watt Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Replace the Piezo. Not a big deal at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spmartin Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Wow, when I first read this I thought that Line 6 had come out with a new branded piece of clothing. Would probably sell as well as T-shirts! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpmull Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I'm a boxers kinda guy myself. Does the G-String make the Strat Quack any better? :D Let us know how this goes and sorry about your luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulmackay1979 Posted April 15, 2014 Author Share Posted April 15, 2014 will do, still waiting to hear from line 6, not holding my breath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmwpsych Posted April 17, 2014 Share Posted April 17, 2014 Hi - Hard to resist the G string jokes - but I have the same issues with my JTV 59. In my situation the g string piezo was intermittent sometimes would work, sometimes not. Increasingly, it is not working. Dropped it off today at a line 6 repair center near my home. I'll let you know the prognosis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
