Jet Guitars JS-300

Jet Guitars JS-300 

Stepping into the world of iconic tone doesn't require breaking the bank, and the JET JS-300 is here to prove it. This axe is built around the classic, comfortable double-cutaway platform, starting with a lightweight Basswood body. Basswood is a tonewood legendary for its balanced, full sound, allowing your ceramic single-coil pickups to really sing without any overly resonant frequencies getting in the way. This choice of tonewood is the secret weapon for versatility, providing clarity and a strong fundamental for any style of music.

The JS-300 takes stability and playability to the next level with a Canadian Roasted Maple neck. The roasting process removes moisture, resulting in wood that is incredibly stable, resistant to environmental changes, and has enhanced resonance—a feature typically reserved for much higher-priced instruments. Paired with a smooth, 9.5" radius Roasted Maple fretboard and a fast Modern C profile, you get a luxurious playing feel that makes both rhythm and lead work effortless.

This guitar’s SSS (Single Coil, Single Coil, Single Coil) ceramic pickup configuration delivers that chimey, versatile, and instantly recognizable tone that defined rock and blues for decades. Whether you’re channeling the legacy of famous S-style players known for their incredible dynamic range or forging your own path, the 5-way switch unlocks a spectrum of sound, from bright, quacky funk rhythms to warm, soulful neck leads. With reliable chrome hardware and a vintage-style tremolo, the JET JS-300 is an exceptional value, combining quality construction, classic looks, and modern performance.
