1. high quality responsive jlf

   If you're looking to replace your worn-out stick with a new one, this is definitely recommended. Super responsive out of the box. Stone Nguyen on Apr 18th 2018

2. Most popular for a reason

   They're great, responsive, durable, clean, etc. I can't speak to other top brands, but if you're just getting into sticks, this will serve you much better than unbranded stock sticks. Much like the unbranded buttons, I would constantly be seeing doubles on my directional inputs. After installing this, a 2lb tension spring (good for gorilla style players), and an oversized actuator, I am hitting my inputs very cleanly every time. Just remember that it won't make you a better player, it will remove one of many possible obstructions to becoming a better player. Unknown on Mar 9th 2018

3. Feels great - responsive

   I upgraded the standard stick in a Mayflash F500 to this, and it is a huge difference. My movements are more precise now. Thanks Sanwa and FA. Unknown on Mar 6th 2018

4. Good Stick

   Competitive performance grade stick that will take you far. Raymond on Jan 24th 2018

5. WOOOOOOW

   This stick quite literally turned my old, beat up pelican POS into the envy of my small group of fighting friends. Our monthly meet up for PS2 age fighters was a COMPLETELY different experience with this stick in the mix. So easy to swap into any configuration and the wiring diagram with pictures made installation a breeze. I cannot state how much easier it is to pull off specials with a responsive stick.

6. Fits in RAP4 Kai

   I bought this to replace my Hayabusa because I didn't like how loose it was. The JLF has a tighter feel even with it's stock spring. It mounted without any issues in my Hori RAP4 Kai using the same screws that held the Hayabusa in place. If you aren't a fan of the Hayabusa this is a great alternative. ben the bear on Nov 24th 2017

7. High Quality, High Accuracy Joystick

   Equipped with the octagonal restrictor plate, the Sanwa JLF-TP-8YT Joystick is the standard joystick in all Super 78, Super Twin 78, Super CV, and Super Arcade controllers. We've installed literally hundreds of them and never had a complaint or a problem. The quick-disconnect harness makes wiring a snap, while the threaded shaft invites endless knob customization. Also enjoyed every transaction with the Focus Attack team. Very grateful to have them as collaborators. Ed at Edladdin Controllers on Nov 7th 2017

8. It's the Standard for Joysticks

   The standard is not a bad thing. By that I mean that this joystick is perfect for almost any setup. If I'm not mistaken, the majority of fightsticks bough already assembled come with this. Easy to mod as well. I use a 2lb spring for added resistance in the stick and I installed the octagonal gate. I really like the feel. If this is your first build, or even if you consistently build fightsticks, I highly recommend it. Unknown on Oct 9th 2017

9. Arrived with a bent pin

   One of the 5 pins that connects to the harness was bent out of shape. It took me a while to re-adjust it back since it couldn't fit into the 5-pin harness. I had to use a toothpick that bent the pin to its intended position, insert the harness half-way and take the toothpick out. Seeing how stiff it was, I can only assume it was accidentally manufactured this way. The stick itself is great - responsive and fast. A loud and satisfying clicking sound can be heard when using it.
