Whether you're channelling vintage blues tones, firing off articulate funk riffs, or melting faces with searing rock leads, this guitar has the range, feel, and presence to handle it all.

With premium tonewoods, a modern HSS pickup configuration, and a roasted maple neck, this model takes everything great about classic guitars and upgrades them with contemporary craftsmanship. And the best part? It’s available now at Musicmaker.

A Rock-Solid Build with Premium Materials

At the heart of the JS-480 is a roasted poplar body, delivering a lightweight yet resonant foundation for killer tone. This wood ensures a well-balanced sound—strong mids, articulate highs, and a controlled low end—making it a fantastic all-rounder for any style.

The Canadian roasted maple neck, shaped into a modern 'C' profile, is all about smooth playability and stability. Roasting the maple does more than just give it that rich, dark aesthetic—it also increases durability, enhances sustain, and improves resistance to temperature and humidity changes. Whether you’re gigging, recording, or just jamming at home, this neck feels fantastic in your hands and holds up to constant play.

To top it all off, the rosewood fretboard provides a warm, full-bodied response, complementing the maple’s brightness for a well-rounded sound. With a 9.5” radius, the fretboard makes chording feel effortless while allowing for silky-smooth string bending—perfect for both rhythm and lead work.

HSS Pickup Configuration – Versatility at Your Fingertips

The Jet JS-480 comes loaded with a custom-designed Alnico V HSS pickup setup, ensuring a rich, dynamic sound palette for virtually any genre.

Bridge Humbucker: Thick, punchy, and articulate—perfect for overdriven riffs and lead lines that need to cut through the mix.

Middle & Neck Single-Coils: Crisp, bright, and full of vintage charm—ideal for glassy cleans, funky rhythms, and soulful blues tones.

With a 5-way selector switch, you can effortlessly switch between pickup combinations, giving you everything from warm jazz tones to biting rock solos with just the flick of a switch.

Gold-Plated Tremolo & Performance-Ready Hardware

Of course, tone is just part of the equation. The JS-480 is also built for reliability and comfort. A gold-plated tremolo bridge not only adds a touch of luxury to the aesthetic but also delivers expressive pitch control for players who love to add vibrato, dips, and dives to their sound. Unlike cheaper trem systems, this one holds its tuning exceptionally well, so you can play with confidence.

A bone nut and high-quality tuning machines keep everything rock solid, ensuring that your strings stay in tune even during aggressive playing sessions. And, of course, the gold hardware ties it all together with a level of refinement that makes this guitar look and feel far beyond its price point.

A Guitar That Commands Attention

The Jet Guitars JS-480 is more than just a pretty face—it’s a workhorse that delivers professional-level tone, feel, and performance at an unbeatable price. Whether you're taking centre stage, laying down tracks in the studio, or just enjoying an evening of inspired playing, this guitar is built to impress.
