It might be a little arrogant to say this guitar is "better than new," so I'll resist the temptation. But I will say, when I first got this guitar the setup was so-so. So it got a full-on neck check, fret leveling and polish, and bridge reset - and now it flies and sings. All electronics are 100% working, the only things keeping it from being "mint" condition are two scratches on the back of the neck (by the 2nd and 4th fret, but you can't really see 'em in the closeup photo). Still has the plastic on the larger rear cover. Comes with original gig bag (not shown).Line 6 JTV-89F Variax Electric GuitarWith 29 incredibly detailed Line 6 Variax instruments -- plus the ability to virtually tune down a whole octave without impacting playability or intonation -- the JTV-89F shatters the limitations of traditional guitars. The Floyd Rose licensed double-locking tremolo system by Graph Tech, high-gain humbucking pickups and lightning-fast fretboard combine to make JTV-89F the perfect instrument for players of heavier, high-gain styles.The Floyd Rose(R) licensed double-locking tremolo system by Graph Tech is designed for rock-solid stability in any alternate down tuning--and with any instrument. With JTV-89F, you can use extreme whammy bar techniques with classic electric guitars and exotic instruments like sitar--which would otherwise be impossible without heavy mods. The custom-designed bridge includes built-in piezo crystals that flawlessly translate the Variax guitar tone and dynamics. The precision piezos are housed inside a set of Graph Tech String Saver(TM) saddles, which are highly resistant to rust, corrosion or perspiration--ideal for sweat-stained stages and beer-soaked venues.Imagine going from Standard tuning to Drop Bb in an instant--without interrupting your recording session or sacrificing an ounce of playability. JTV-89F lets you go lower than guitars have gone before, without worrying about pitchiness or slack strings. You can mix and match any tuning with any instrument--and also create your own tunings on the fly with Virtual Capo. It's easy to save your custom tunings, either to the open Model slot on the Alt Tune knob, or to one of the other alternate tuning slots.
