If you keep an eye on our First Look section, you'll have spotted the Jet JS-400 last issue. Jet has been around for couple of years now having started in 2020 with founder and guitar builder, Primoz Virant heading up the design and specs.
We say design, but it isn't unfair to note that Jet Guitars - alongside many other brands in the lower price bracket - are highly derivative. The difference is here it's more of a concept, and seemingly one that is trying squeeze in as many features for as little money as possible. While the prices of everything else in our lives are skyrocketing, ironically Jet is keeping things grounded.
Jet Guitars are available in a number of series, largely organized by body shape, pickup type, and finish. Our review guitar comes from the 400 Series which solely features S-type bodies, with an HSS pickup configuration. It's available in six different finishes including the Vintage Yellow we have here, plus a Sunburst, White, faded Pink, surf-y Green, and a relic version of the green finish.
