The Jet Guitars JS-40 Metallic Burst is not just a guitar—it's a work of art designed to dazzle both visually and sonically. With its sleek metallic burst finish, this guitar is the perfect blend of classic rock aesthetics and modern innovation. Whether you're laying down bluesy riffs, tearing into hard rock anthems, or exploring more nuanced, expressive tones, the JS-40 delivers in spades.
Unleash the Sound
The combination of an alder body and a roasted maple neck with a rosewood fretboard sets the foundation for a rich and resonant tone. The alder provides a balanced tonal quality with a slight upper-midrange boost, allowing your notes to cut through the mix, while the roasted maple neck adds sustain and a slightly warmer tone than typical maple. The rosewood fretboard offers a smooth playing experience with a rich, mellow response that brings out the subtle nuances of your performance.
Thanks to the Custom HSS pickup configuration, this guitar is incredibly versatile. The humbucker in the bridge position adds plenty of punch and growl for heavier genres, while the two single coils provide that classic, glassy tone perfect for blues, jazz, and funk. Whether you're chasing searing leads, crisp rhythms, or sultry cleans, the JS-40 gives you the tools to shape your sound.
Inspired by Legends
While the JS-40 Metallic Burst may not be a signature model tied to one particular artist, its tonal versatility mirrors the sounds of legends like David Gilmour and Eric Johnson. Its ability to cover a wide sonic range makes it a perfect fit for players looking to emulate these guitar icons—whether it's Gilmour's atmospheric leads or Johnson's smooth, articulate tones. The guitar’s build quality, playability, and tonal options give it the depth and range needed to stand shoulder to shoulder with the tools used by these masters.
Crafted with Precision
Jet Guitars didn't cut any corners with the JS-40. The Wilkinson vintage hardware not only complements the guitar’s aesthetic but also ensures rock-solid tuning stability and smooth, accurate intonation. The roasted maple neck doesn’t just add to the guitar’s overall tone—it also provides durability, helping resist environmental factors that can cause warping.
