Jet Guitars JS-400 VYW Roasted Maple HSS - Vintage Yellow
If you're looking for a guitar that screams vintage vibes but plays like a modern dream, the Jet Guitars JS-400 VYW in Vintage Yellow is calling your name! With its bold colour, slick roasted maple neck, and versatile HSS pickup configuration, this is the kind of guitar that turns heads before you even play a note—and when you do? Get ready to melt some faces.
Retro Looks, Modern Playability
That Vintage Yellow finish is bold, bright, and guaranteed to stand out in a sea of dull guitars. The basswood body keeps things nice and lightweight, so you can jump, spin, and rock out without feeling like you're carrying a ton of bricks.
Then there’s that roasted Canadian maple neck—not only does it look stunning with its deep, caramel-like hue, but it also adds stability, resonance, and a smooth feel that makes playing effortless. The modern ‘C’ profile fits your hand like a glove, and with 22 frets on a 9.5-inch radius fretboard, you’re getting a comfortable, fast-playing surface perfect for anything from blues bends to shred-worthy runs.
Tons of Tone at Your Fingertips
The HSS pickup setup (humbucker in the bridge, single-coils in the middle and neck) gives you the best of both worlds—fat, powerful tones when you need to rock out and crisp, articulate cleans for those glassy, vintage sounds. The ceramic pickups ensure clarity and punch across all five pickup positions, so whether you're cranking out power chords or picking through delicate arpeggios, this guitar has your back.
The 5-way selector switch gives you plenty of sonic options, while the single volume and tone knobs keep things simple and intuitive. And if you're the type who likes to add a little flair to your playing, the tremolo bridge is there to deliver all the dive bombs and subtle warbles you could ask for.
Rock-Solid Hardware
Tuning stability? Check. The chrome machine heads hold tuning like a champ, even after aggressive playing. The bone nut ensures great sustain and note clarity, and the double-action truss rod means you can set the neck exactly how you like it.
The Jet Guitars JS-400 VYW isn’t just another pretty face—it’s a versatile workhorse ready to handle whatever you throw at it. From blues and rock to funk and punk, this guitar can do it all—and look amazing while doing it.
