Jet Guitars - JS 300 Sonic Blue

The Jet Guitars JS-300 Sonic Blue belongs to that category of instruments where the colour is no mere coincidence: this faded blue, inspired by the catalogues of the 1960s, complements the Vintage White pickguard to create a colour scheme that immediately places the guitar within a specific lineage — that of the vintage Stratocasters that shaped the sound of rock and surf music.The body’s structure, crafted from torrefied poplar — with the top, back and sides all subjected to the same heat treatment — ensures a uniform tonal mass, free from the weak spots that untreated wood develops over time and due to fluctuations in humidity. The torrefied Canadian maple neck, with a Modern C profile, is paired with a torrefied maple fingerboard with a 241.3 mm radius: a geometry that handles rhythm playing at the lower end of the neck just as well as solos in the upper register, across all 22 frets. The 41.9 mm nut width ensures the strings are spaced correctly, and the bone/polymer fibre nut (standard since 2025) maintains tuning where cheap synthetic materials fail.The SSS ceramic pickup configuration, controlled via 1 volume control, 2 tone controls and a 5-position switch, reproduces the full spectrum of the Stratocaster design across a 647.7 mm scale length that enhances the clarity of the attack. The chrome hardware, dual-action truss rod and tremolo-style vibrato bridge round off the technical specifications of an instrument whose internal consistency is second to none.
