Personalised multi-point setup included

Before dispatch, your instrument will be treated to a full setup. That's not a quick tweak, but a full multi-point setup by an experienced guitar technician who will check and adjust every single thing on your guitar, bass, ukulele or banjo to ensure it is performing at its absolute best.

This is not a quick process but we believe every instrument should go through our process to acheive an exacting standard of playability.

Frets

We start with the frets on your instrument. All guitar necks move and change over time so we will make sure that your frets are nice and flat as we go up the neck. We don't want any high or low spots as this will mean your guitar will need a higher than optimum action and potentially suffer with fret buzz.

We check and properly profile the playing surface of the frets and then make sure the fret ends are finished off properly. The fret is then polished to ensure smooth string bending.

Truss Rod

Then it's on to the truss rod. This metal rod differs from guitar to guitar (some guitars such as classical guitars don't usually have a truss rod!) and basically controls the "relief" or curve of the neck. Not enough relief and your strings won't have enough clearance over the other frets when playing. Too much relief and you'll have a high action which gets worse as you go up the neck.

The heavier the strings then the more the truss rod needs to work. Proper adjustment in the workshop means that the action will be just right for the strings fitted to your guitar.

Top Nut

The top nut is super important and is one of the two open contact points of your guitar. The technician will check and cut each slot to make sure the strings both run freely but are not sitting in a slot that's too big.

The top nut also plays a big part in the action of your guitar so we'll hit that sweet spot between too low and too high.

Saddle(s)

Another really important part of your guitar!

On an acoustic, the saddle is cut to the correct height making sure the bottom is 100% flat and straight. This means the string can transfer its vibration properly into the body of your guitar.

For electric guitars, the saddles are adjusted to ensure your intonation is perfect. We will also match the saddles to the radius of your fretboard.

Bridge / Tremolo

The bridge affects the break angle and string height of your guitar and is also responsible for holding your saddles.

For a guitar with a Floyd Rose tremolo system or similar, the spring tension has to be just right to allow the tremolo to return to its "zero point" and keep everything in tune.

For guitars with standard tremolos, we can set it to float and be used both up or down like a true tremolo or we can lock the trem block back so the tremolo will only go downwards.... the choice is yours!

Intonation

Intonation is the measure of how in-tune the guitar string is across the length of the fretboard and a guitar with badly set intonation will get more and more out of tune as the string is shortened when you play.

Tiny adjustments are made to each string where applicable to adjust its length and ensure that the intonation is set just right.

Overall Action

Once all the above has been completed, the guitar is checked for playability and fine adjustments are made. This step brings everything together and means your guitar will be set up optimally.

Machine Heads

Every machine head is operated and checked for function. We need to ensure that the machine heads operate smoothly.

Electrics

All the functions of your guitar are checked to ensure everything is working as intended.

For acoustic guitars we will check the functions of the EQ system and controls as well as check the internal cabling and jack socket.

For electric guitars, all the pickups are checked for function and tonal response. All controls and switches are operated to ensure they are functioning properly. The jack socket is checked.

Other Parts

All other parts such as strap pins, bushings, tuning buttons etc are fully checked.

Dispatch

All our instruments get the same premium treatment whether you purchase online or instore.

If you have purchased online, your guitar will be carefully packed ready for dispatch. You will receive a tracking link via email.

Happy playing :)

Description

Finding a traditional double-cutaway electric guitar that breaks out of the entry-level mould without breaking the bank is an ongoing challenge for many players. The Jet JS-400 electric guitar directly addresses this need by combining premium, boutique-style kiln-baked tonewoods with an exceptionally adaptable electronics layout, providing a high-performance instrument for developing musicians and gigging guitarists alike.

Constructed with a solid, resonant basswood body, this instrument offers a comfortable, lightweight playing platform that minimises physical fatigue during long practice blocks and live sets. By pairing structural durability upgrades with a sleek, ergonomic design, it delivers a deeply rewarding playing experience that stands up to the rigours of constant use.

Versatile HSS Ceramic Pickup Configuration

The core of this guitar's wide-ranging sonic character lies in its flexible pickup layout, featuring a single humbucker and two single-coils (HSS). This combination provides immediate access to both classic single-coil chime and aggressive humbucking power. The bridge ceramic humbucker outputs a tight, muscular bite that handles overdriven rock rhythms, high-gain riffs, and singing lead lines with absolute clarity and punch.

In contrast, the passive ceramic single-coils in the middle and neck positions deliver a bright, scooped mid-range and articulate top-end response. These positions excel at clean funk rhythms, smooth blues fills, and expressive, dynamic pop lines. Managed by a traditional five-way pickup selector switch, a master volume control, and a master tone control, you can quickly sculpt and refine your output voice for almost any musical genre.

Premium Canadian Roasted Maple Neck

A standout highlight of this model is its Canadian roasted maple neck, a premium structural treatment rarely found on instruments at this price tier. The wood is baked in a specialised kiln to evaporate residual moisture and organic resins. This advanced treatment significantly hardens the wood fibres, making the neck incredibly stable and highly resistant to bowing, twisting, or warping caused by rapid temperature shifts and humidity changes.

The playability of the neck is tailored for speed and long-term comfort, featuring a smooth satin finish and a modern C-shaped profile. Paired with a comfortable 9.5" (24.1 cm) fingerboard radius and a 42 mm nut width, the neck provides an intuitive, natural feel that facilitates complex chord shapes down low and effortless string bending on the higher frets. A double-action truss rod ensures straightforward, accurate neck relief adjustments over time.

Dependable Vintage-Style Hardware

To support dynamic playing techniques and maintain tuning reliability, the physical appointments focus on mechanical precision. The body is equipped with a smooth vintage-style tremolo system, allowing you to add expressive dips, pitch shimmers, and chordal vibrato to your performances. The bridge design maintains a positive return-to-pitch, anchoring your performance stability.

At the headstock end, strings pass over a high-density bone nut directly into sealed chrome machine heads. The bone material facilitates optimal string vibration transfer directly into the neck timber, maximising natural sustain and acoustic resonance, while the enclosed tuners offer smooth, positive gear retention for precise tuning adjustments.
