Love this guy very humble and a great player
I had a Jet JS300 earlier in the year. I had to sell it to pay an urgent bill at the time but I played it constantly. Great couch guitar. You're tempting me to get another.
Great vid John! 😀👌
It's bonkers what Jet managing to pull off at this price point 👍
I agree Steve, the further up the range you go, the better they get.
Can't wait to see next years upgraded models.
@@Barbarapape I heard a rumour about included Dimarzio's the other day 😁
Maybe, just maybe, other makers and / or factories COULD make them this well but just don't feel they have to bother or, are rushing to meet a Quota or Deadline. When Gibson pushed the Quota system on their craftsmen their Quality began to decline.
No way is that strat as good as the Sire you had John - jmo. Still can't believe you sold it. See you in the livestream tomorrow, I know, don't faint!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all! Great show John, and a handsome Strat! Long live Stratocasters!
Your playing on that Jet was different and refreshing. I don't know about your feelings but your hands said you like that guitar. You made it sing.
I fitted some Irongear 6TS pickups to mine. I then replaced them with the original ceramic pickups as I preferred them!
Hey John saw you in the Flora and Son film today, your game grows, way to go! 😀
I recently got a 2020 Chinese Classic Vibe Telecaster and I hated the fret ends but once I polished it up and upgraded it, it was the best guitar and it held well with a set of 10s. 9 was too slinky. If I didn't get this I was thinking of a jet. Solid gold!
So happy to hear that one more affordable guitar is really good. Great time to be beginner and to be able to afford good gear
I've got a jet 300. A great guitar for the price. The neck is lovely. I changed the pickguard for a fender fully loaded tex mex pickguard. Very easy job to do. 🎸👌
Really? Did they line up OK?
@@padawan9127 yes it was really good. Had to remove the neck to replace the pick guard.
@perrybright4485 thanks, I have a new js300 in daphne blue hanging on a wall here that I can't touch till Christmas. Nice to know I can change the whole wiring if I got a loaded pickguard
Awesome dude
1mm on the 12th fret is awesome for such a cheap guitar. Doesn’t get much better than that to be honest. Although some buzz is perfectly acceptable if it’s not heard through the amp.
Massive, Great Vid John, I never played Knowingly a Roasted Maple neck, For that price a great new or a back up guitar at that price. OHHH 9's always for me. Always a Knob to improve Bass or depth. Looking forward to X Mas Day 1.30 pm UK time.
This guitar is terrific. Great sound from the neck pickup, you can always add the hot rails to the bridge
Go on John, give it a go!! You can't lose at that price! 🎸🎸
Very Cool, Thankyou John. Congrats on New Guitar. Stunning looking and Sounding Guitar and Playing as always. I Like the colour. Positions 2 and 4 really have an amazing 'out of sync' type sound, very cool. $400- to $500- Online in Australia, Price seems a bit elevated to exchange rates, more Than the Artist Guitars comparative 'Strat'. All The Best. Cheers
If you sift through Dave Simpsons vids you'll find he has gigged his green one. I bought one about 12 months ago and still have it, good bang for your buck as the saying goes. I recently bought a JS450 a step up 'imho' from the JS300.
He doesn't have it anymore, it stayed with Queenie after her breaking up with him.
Position 2 sounded awesome! Nice axe!
The man does Rock!
A Mathematicaljohnstacaster! You need a Johnstacaster. Great vid!
Hope your finger is healing up ok. Best Regards and Best Wishes!
a few Knopfler-esque titbits in there! FABULOUS PLAYING TODAY JOHN!
Also sounds great acousticly.
Hi John, that's got to be a great deal for a that price. A few years ago I'm sure I would have loved it. It's not that I don't like those out of phase sounds but these days I just don't want to play with them. I've got a few quid coming my way toward the end of next year so it will be time to get a quality guitar at last. If you had asked me 20 years ago what I wanted then I would have said a Strat without hesitating. If next year you decided you wanted to find a new home for your Les Paul (a pig just flew over Robson Towers!) then that would do just fine. See you tomorrow.
Great looking and sounding S type guitar and a steal at £149 👍🎸😄
The best Strat I've ever owned (and now my only) is my Shijie STE SSS Stainless 2021. Fender Custom Shop quality at 4 to 5 times less. If you can, try one.
and am with you on string gauge too strat type guitars 10s lps 11s!
I personally really wish prs had an option for a chunkier neck on their silver sky guitars. I like the thicker necks on their 245 and 594’s. For a strat, i have a squier cv70 that has a fairly chunky neck and it plays really well. And ive only got a little over $400 in the squier. I am debating dropping some upgraded pickups in it, even tho it really doesnt need them. More of a want honestly.
To Strat or not to Strat... Tis a Nashvillian problem of Fendery proportions!
I love this guy he f rocks
2:00 gives me massive mark knoplfer vibes
Love this guy 😂😅😊
Looks good fro the price but not a patch on the Sire.
Keep on jamming
😮 There are after market replacement necks that go for more than that, and that's just the neck alone! Out of interest, do you think you might do a demo on a kit guitar? May be towards the summer when the weather is good?
I keep thinking about doing a kit build... Maybe I should just do it.
Harley benton thinline telecaster kit is what I fancy ..
Know they in the naughty corner john lol 😆
Nothing else makes that S-Style sound! It's that whole weird mixture that Leo came up with.......While I'm NOT a Fan of the Fender versions that I had attempted to bond with....(I found a fantastic U.S. made G & L!) I do need some version of it to round out my Guitar Tool Box! That one sound great. I'm surprised to hear that the pickups have ceramic pickups! Huh!!! (I am rather prejudiced toward translucent finishes to be able to see some decent wood grain... but that's just my weird preference!) Put some graphite in those nut slots.
How's your finger doing John? Speedy recovery? Doesn't seem like it's slowing you down.
Just a reminder... I bagged first option on purchase :-)
Love your honesty and technical knowledge but as a mid 60 year old don't trash that strat most of your customers will be my age and have a Strat some of us cant afford a new guitar
When did I trash the strat? You must have missed the point somewhat. At no point did I say "strats are awful" or anything to that effect. I'm willing to bet that there are certain styles of guitar that appeal to you, personally, less than others. For me, it's s-type guitars which excite me less than Les Pauls or Telecasters. Hence the title of the video. I have heard nothing but great reviews of this guitar so I was curious if this one is the instrument that would light my fire for strats. Nothing more than that. You seem to be suggesting I was saying that Stratocaster style guitars are inferior and you should buy something else. At no point did I say this.
I expected this video to be about avoiding meat and with a closing message that "you will eat ze bugz and be happy".
I literally have no clue what you're talking about mate, but cheers for watching & merry Christmas 👍
For the first split-second in reading the title, I thought it read, "Is This the Guitar That Will Get Me the Girls?"
I think you have just talked yourself into selling that guitar John. 😆😆😆
Sounded great! Better than your Gibson.
I hear what you are saying about the Sire. Sadly I'm the kind of person who is really put off by the wrong appearance and I think that the Sires are ugly and have none of the classic style of the Strat.
You're a smashing guitarist John but that strat copy sounds very thin and tinny .£150 makes it a value guitar for beginners but surely not for stage players. Happy Xmas.
I have heard this before John, i never understood why you sold the Sire.
The further up the Jet models you go the better they get.
Try a JS400 or better still a 600.
no
Bro sells guitars that he doesn't play.
Be like bro. 🎸 🤔
Those ceramic pups are no bueno. Granted, my Strat is a Made In America (MIA). My Sire 7, made in Indonesia, sounds 95% better. My Squire Classic Vibe, made in Indonesia, is 90% better. Return it. Christmas party with the chaps is money better sent.🎉
The rosewood fingerboard version of this would be the point of difference with the classic vibe. The latest classic vibes are all laurel fingerboards, which are terrible compared to rosewood (even with the ceramic pickups)
I’m a lefty, so good relatively cheap strat style guitars are very hard to get.
