How do they make guitars this good, this cheaply? A quick review of this "budget" guitar that can keep up with the big boys with a few mods. Have you tried one? What do you think? 0:01 introduction 3:08 Playing some sounds 7:12 Summary
Bought one a few weeks back at the guitar show, the shell pink one, a great guitar, especially the neck. Ive bought locking tuners, a gotoh trem and a graphtech string tree. Its all being fitted by my tech on 9th april. Looking forward to that. Still deciding on new pups, but they’re definitely coming out. Cool vid man
Had a chance to compare it with Sterling cutlasses and fender player strats.. This one blew me away how better it felt compared to more the expensive guitars. Shockingly good value/money.
For the price its great. I've played a few strats over the years all of which have different neck profiles, many of which i didnt like. I'd say this is very similar to the current Mexican Fender player series which i really like. Very comfortable but this is just one person's opinion. If you are unsure try one.
Sorry to disappoint you. This was a demo to show the potential of the guitar. If you want to hear the actual guitar you could search for those videos or, better still, play one for real in a music-shop. Similarly you will never really know what the neck and feel is until you try one yourself. This is just one opinion. Many users of this guitar have upgraded pickups so hopefully this demo may help there.
@@SLATEB0Y I can't go to a music-shop that has Jet guitars, so Im going to buy one without having seen and played one. I have watched all the demos on YT :) , so I thank you for your own demo too. Maybe you could have done an A/B comparison with the pickups, anyway thanks again
@@maxduke1943 thanks again for your comments. I should have done a before/after demo but didnt even plan on doing this one. Hopefully you can purchase from a shop where you have the option to return it if its not for you.
the pick-ups featured in the video are lace sensor golds for the single coils and a dimiarzio paf-pro for the bridge. Only fitted these as they were the only ones i had kicking around without obtaining some others.
Lace single coils are not stacked that was an assumption. They have a unique build and that is what makes them close to noiseless. If you took one part you will be amazed or confused.
True, but the idea of doing this review only came to me after i done the upgrades. I guess this could also be a review of the pickups featured. There's plenty of "straight-out-of-the-box" reviews and demos on youtube to check out the guitar in its factory state.
I have modded my Jet JS-300 and 400 extensively and though the overall cost is around 400.- for the complete guitar, there is NOTHING out there at that price that will come close to the feel and quality. Bang for buck comes to mind, being "cheap" suggests it is also a piece of s***.....🎸🤘🏼🎸
