JET JS-50 Custom Art Finish Electric Guitar – Art Blue
The JET JS-50 Custom Art takes the familiar double-cut electric guitar and gives it a completely different personality. With its bold Art Blue custom-painted finish, roasted maple neck, rosewood fingerboard and dual humbuckers, this is a guitar designed for players who want something that looks different without sacrificing playability or versatility.
The finish is obviously the first thing you'll notice. Inspired by the graphic colours and styling of the 1980s, the JS-50 Art Blue stands well apart from the usual solid colours and sunbursts. Underneath that artwork, though, there's a genuinely well-specified electric guitar.
A two-piece mahogany body gives the JS-50 a solid, resonant foundation, paired with a quarter-sawn roasted maple neck and Indian rosewood fingerboard. The 12" fingerboard radius and medium jumbo frets provide a comfortable modern feel, making bends, lead work and faster playing easy while remaining comfortable for chords and rhythm work.
Dual Alnico Humbuckers
The JS-50 is equipped with a pair of Alnico humbuckers, giving it a fuller and more powerful voice than the single-coil-equipped models found elsewhere in the JET range.
Clean sounds are warm and articulate, while adding gain brings out the thicker midrange and sustain you'd expect from a good humbucker-equipped guitar. The straightforward three-way pickup selector with Volume and Tone controls keeps everything simple.
From blues and classic rock through to indie, alternative, hard rock and heavier styles, there's plenty of tonal range here.
Roasted Maple Neck & Modern Playability
JET has built a strong following partly because of just how good its necks feel, and the JS-50 continues that theme.
The quarter-sawn roasted maple neck provides excellent stability while giving the guitar a smooth, played-in feel straight out of the box. Combined with the Indian rosewood fingerboard, 12" radius and medium jumbo frets, it's an easy guitar to get comfortable with.
Locking tuners and a tremolo bridge complete the package, providing practical modern hardware for players who actually intend to use the guitar.
