The pure power of the jet

Chambered mahogany body - loud and clear
The classic Jet sound begins with a chambered mahogany body with a maple top that produces full lows and mids with exceptionally smooth, present highs. The result is a deep, robust yet balanced acoustic foundation.
Black Top Filter'Tron™ pickups - quintessential power and clarity.
Black Top Filter'Tron pickups amplify and accentuate the chambered body of the Jet FT Electromatic to produce a wide, balanced and transparent sound. Loud and punchy, this Jet sounds with remarkable definition at any gain level. Together, the body and pickups make a thunderous sound with full, responsive lows and mids and highs that shine without spikes.
