JET Guitars at Kirstein

JET Guitars is aimed at players who appreciate classic guitar concepts but do not want to miss out on modern details. Roasted maple necks are a defining feature of many models. The 300 Series already combines this feature with familiar S- and T-style concepts. These are complemented by Modern C neck profiles, different fretboard options and, depending on the model, various pickup and bridge configurations. The selection therefore ranges from straightforward instruments for beginners to more specialised rock and performance guitars.

300 Series – a classic introduction to the world of JET

The 300 Series is an important starting point in the JET range. Models such as the JS-300 follow the classic S-style concept and feature three single-coil pickups and a tremolo, among other specifications. The JT-300, by contrast, follows a T-style concept with two single coils and a fixed bridge. Many variants feature a Canadian roasted maple neck. This makes the series particularly suitable for players looking for a versatile electric guitar with familiar controls and a modern interpretation of traditional designs.

400 and 500 Series – from versatile to rock-oriented

With the 400 Series, JET expands the classic concept with a wider variety of pickup and hardware options. Depending on the model, HSS, HH or single-humbucker configurations are combined with tremolo or hardtail designs. This allows the series to cover different sonic priorities, from clear and dynamic tones to more powerful rock sounds.

The 500 Series moves even more clearly towards rock and heavier styles. JET offers models with features including dual humbuckers, mahogany bodies and performance-oriented pickup configurations. The range also includes a seven-string version. Players looking to move from a classic ST or TL design to an instrument geared more towards distorted sounds and modern playing will find suitable alternatives here.

700 and 800 Series for modern performance

The 700 Series is specifically aimed at guitarists focusing on hard rock and modern performance playing. Fast necks and powerful pickups are key features. The 800 Series takes the aesthetics of performance-oriented 1980s guitars even further. Double-locking tremolos, striking finishes and a pronounced Superstrat character make these models particularly interesting for playing techniques that involve intensive tremolo use.

Which JET guitar is right for you?

For a versatile introduction, the 300 Series is a good place to start. Players who prefer the classic S-style can explore the ST models, while fans of straightforward T-style designs will find suitable instruments among the TL models. The 400 Series offers more choice in pickup configurations and bridge systems. For heavier rock sounds and performance-oriented playing, the 500 and 700 Series are particularly interesting, while the 800 Series offers an even more specialised approach with its distinctive hot-rod and Superstrat concept.
