The Jet JS-400 Guitar: Honest Thoughts After a Year

Today, we're revisiting the Jet JS-400 guitar after a year of use. Have I sold it? Do I still play it? Have my standards changed? Let's find out together in this comprehensive review.
In this video, we'll explore the Jet JS-400's performance after a year, its durability, and whether it still holds up to my initial impressions. We'll also discuss how my experience with this guitar has evolved over time, and if it's still a part of my regular rotation.

    I bought one last April and literally sold all of my other guitars because its just that good. I have no need for other guitars that don't play or feel as good as my JET.

    I bought a JT300 last week. I love the neck although mine is even darker than mahogany and the finish scratches with my nails. No fussed though, the neck is PERFECT in my hands. I'm going to modify this heavily

    Couldn’t agree more mate. I would suggest to anyone thinking about buying one to just go for it. It’s a no brainer as you said. It’s become my number one, and number 2 🤣 (as I bought a second one). Gigging, practising and playing round the house - it’s the guitar I pick up all the time. I would put it up against a Mexican Fender at almost 4 times the cost. And I can’t wait to see what Jet will have at Namm in the next few days. I added locking tuners (a preference only) and strap locks (essentially for gigging) and the only thing I would change would be the pickups. As we would say in Ireland, they’re grand haha. Ie they are decent. Not bad at all. But like you a set of Alnico’s would be amazing in this guitar. Let’s see what Namm brings.

    Good review. I've had a js 300 for about a year. Took a while to get the action right but now perfect. Set up as hard tail the same as my 62 Fender Strat repro bought in 1989. The Jet neck and frets are top notch. Will buy a Blue js400 soon. Like the Fender 62, I play the js300 through a small tube head with compression, a touch of reverb and delay. Great strat tone - neck pick up. Would recommend a Js300 or 400 any time.

    honestly they are both great! I guess depending on the model you are choosing from HB just watch out for the pickups they use. also I found generally the necks on the Jets are way nicer! what model HB are you looking at? cheers bud

    Hello my friend! To be honest YES! The neck and frets on the Jet are really great! It's a solid good sounding guitar. Both the Pacifica and HB are good but I personally like this one better. Hope it help buddy but let me know what you think? Which HB guitar were you looking at?

    @@SoulStringChannelthat's helpful information. I was looking at the st70 and st62 hot rod, I've seen so many reviews and comparisons and people say they sound better than the js400 or the Pacifica because of Thier alnico (i like alnico pickups more than ceramic). but the problem is none of 4 guitars are being sold in my country so i don't think I'll be getting any of them soon

    I just got one, and it sounds way worse than your video. How do you make it sounds that good? with a good amp I guess? How can I make it sounds better besides having a new amp?
