1 Finely Crafted Guitar
Inspired by the archetypal single-cut, set-neck guitar with 24-9/16” scale length, JTV-59 employs the tonewoods that have made the format legendary since the 1950s. The guitar has a mahogany body with a carved maple top, and a 22-fret mahogany set neck with a rosewood fingerboard. The two alnico humbucking pickups are wound to James Tylers specs along the lines of classic PAFs, but with a little extra punch in the bridge position. With or without Variax modeling, JTV-59 is a supreme player’s instrument.

Designed by James Tyler, Master Luthier
Spot-on, industry-leading modeling is only half of the James Tyler Variax story. Equally important are the innovative design and boutique playing experience provided by master luthier James Tyler. Tyler’s visionary concepts and meticulous attention to detail have made his guitars the top choice of world-renowned session players and performers—and made him the perfect partner for the Variax guitar series. Each James Tyler Variax guitar was designed by Tyler and is built to his exacting specifications to ensure exceptional playability.

Exceptional Playability
James Tyler has made a career of understanding what makes vintage instruments so phenomenally playable, and applied this expertise to the James Tyler Variax modeling guitars. Since the feel of the neck is one of the most important aspects of a guitar, he chose a proven neck shape from his custom work—and designed the neck joint to provide absolute access to the upper frets. In short, JTV-59 sounds and feels incredible.

Precision Pickups
After decades of partnering with other manufacturers to spec pickups for his custom guitars, James Tyler began winding his own pickups in 2007—and has since released more than 30 variations. Drawing on this vast expertise, Tyler carefully designed the alnico humbucking pickups for the JTV-59 guitar. Wound to his precise specifications, they’re inspired by classic PAFs, but with a little extra output in the bridge position.

Custom Wraparound Bridge
One of the most integral parts of any guitar is the bridge, where seemingly small changes can mean huge differences in tone and tuning stability. James Tyler leveraged years of experience to design a custom, fully adjustable wraparound bridge for the JTV-59.

Premium Nut, Tuners and More
A high-quality guitar nut also plays a critical role in maintaining tuning stability and extending the life of your strings. As you hit the strings on a fixed-bridge guitar, they flex, retract and move in the nut—and if they bind even a little, you’ll end up quite out of tune. That’s why Tyler chose the precision-engineered, self-lubricating Graph Tech Black TUSQ XL nut, which allows the strings to move—and enhances the JTV-59 guitar’s performance and tone by bringing out hidden harmonics in each note.

Play for 12 Hours—Or All Night
JTV-59 features a long-lasting, rechargeable lithium-ion battery, which delivers at least 12 hours of playing time on a single charge. It also features a four-LED battery life meter, which lets you know how much time you have left. To get the most from each charge, simply roll down the volume when you’re not using the guitar, and the electronics will go to sleep after just a few seconds. And thanks to the pickup bypass function, you can always use the guitar without batteries.

This pairing of woods yields the full spectrum of warmth, depth, clarity and complexity that has made maple/mahogany construction legendary.
