Jet Guitars - JS 400 HT Blue

Some guitars are packed with features. The Jet Guitars JS-400 HT Blue takes the opposite approach: a ceramic humbucker at the bridge, a single-knob volume control, and a direct line to the amp. This design choice isn’t a limitation — it’s a statement. The signal remains intact, the midrange saturates with honesty, and the sound carries without the need to fiddle with a selector switch.
What the Blue finish with White Pearloid pickguard suggests visually is confirmed acoustically by the wood. The body, crafted from roasted poplar — a solid block, from the top to the back — transmits frequencies without smoothing them out: the bass has weight, and the attack doesn’t fade into the sustain. The roasted Canadian maple neck extends this precision right through to the rosewood fingerboard, whose slight natural porosity absorbs stage sweat and softens the touch without dampening the response.
The 647.7 mm scale length keeps the strings under genuine tension — bends on the 22 Medium Jumbo frets have body, without that mushy slippage found on poorly balanced short-scale guitars. The 241.3 mm radius and 41.9 mm nut width ensure the neck’s geometry remains well-balanced: neither too arched to hinder soloing, nor too flat to compromise barre chords. The Modern C profile, the double-action truss rod and the bone nut — or polymer fibre nut depending on the 2025 series — round off a design with no weak points. The chrome-plated tuners finish it all off without being ostentatious.
