Jet JS-380 BK G Electric Guitar

Classic Single-Coil Tone, Elevated

The Jet JS-380 BK G is a striking single-cutaway electric guitar that delivers authentic single-coil tone through a carefully considered combination of premium tonewoods and hardware. With its sleek black finish, full gold hardware package, and roasted wood construction, the JS-380 BK G stands apart from the crowd of entry-level guitars — offering intermediate and advancing players a genuinely professional playing experience without the high-end price tag.

Roasted Tonewoods for Superior Tone and Stability

Jet Guitars built the JS-380 BK G around two roasted tonewoods that make a real difference. The roasted poplar body offers a lightweight, resonant platform with enhanced moisture resistance and improved tonal stability — characteristics typically found on guitars costing far more. The Canadian roasted maple neck further reinforces this premium feel, providing a fast, comfortable Modern C profile that's equally at home in a practice room or on stage. Roasting removes moisture and resins from the wood, resulting in a neck that is more resistant to seasonal humidity changes and less prone to warping — a practical benefit that gigging musicians and touring players will appreciate.

Rosewood Fretboard with a Player-Friendly Radius

The rosewood fretboard pairs beautifully with the roasted maple neck, delivering the warm, slightly dark feel that rosewood is prized for. With a 9.5" radius — a modern take on the vintage 7.25" that makes bending and lead playing more comfortable — and 22 medium jumbo frets, the JS-380 BK G handles everything from clean chord work to expressive soloing. The 1.65" nut width and 25.5" scale length round out a spec sheet that feels genuinely playable right out of the box.

SSS Alnico V Pickups — Custom Voiced for Real Character

At the heart of the JS-380 BK G are three custom-voiced SSS Alnico V single-coil pickups. Alnico V magnets are prized for their punchy attack, clear articulation, and musical treble response — the same magnet type found in many of the most revered single-coil designs in guitar history. A 5-way pickup selector paired with a 1 volume / 2 tone control layout gives players a broad palette of tones, from glassy neck-position cleans to biting bridge tones that cut through a mix. Whether you play blues, country, rock, indie, or funk, the JS-380 BK G has the tonal versatility to keep up.

Gold Hardware Package

The full gold hardware package is a standout feature at this price point. Gold locking tuners ensure tuning stability and make string changes faster, while the gold tremolo bridge adds a touch of vintage-inspired elegance. A bone nut completes the setup, improving sustain and open-string resonance in a way that plastic nuts simply cannot match. Every hardware choice on the JS-380 BK G feels intentional — this is a guitar built to perform, not just to look the part (though it certainly does that too).
