The JET Guitars JS-480 Rosewood represents a significant upgrade in quality, combining premium features and components at a highly competitive price point. Building on the foundation of the 400 series, the JS-480 elevates performance with striking gold hardware, custom-voiced Alnico V pickups, locking tuners, and a resonant roasted poplar body. The HSS pickup configuration delivers rich tonal depth, impressive dynamic sensitivity, and a broad palette of sonic options.
Housed in a lightweight roasted poplar body, the JS-480 offers excellent resonance and comfortable playability. Its Canadian roasted maple neck—shaped in a modern C profile—is paired with a smooth rosewood fretboard and 22 medium jumbo frets, making everything from expressive lead work to intricate chord voicings feel natural and fluid. A genuine bone nut enhances string clarity and sustain, setting the JS-480 apart as a standout choice in its class.
