JS STANDARD

Only the very best premium grade mahogany is selected for the JS Standard. For extra resonance the body is constructed in two pieces (front and back) allowing the inside to be slightly chambered, while still maintaining a good balance on the strap (also available as a solid one piece body). The neck is carved from quarter sawn mahogany, creating a very stable neck with a great feel.

A rosewood fingerboard adds a warmth to the tone with each board being carefully selected for its rich, dark colour. A cherry tint is sprayed after applying the grain filler and sealer, then followed by many thin coats of clear cellulose lacquer. After a minimum of two weeks drying time the guitar is cut back to 800grit then 1200grit and finally polished to a high gloss achieving a classic deep vintage cherry finish. We also offer a low lustre finish for a more worn-in feel and appearance.

All hardware is high quality, and includes a Faber (no wire) tuneomatic bridge with nickel plated brass saddles and lightweight aluminium stop bar. The vintage style Gotoh tulip tuners allow fine tuning and smooth operation. The guitar is fitted with two high quality RS Guitarworks 500k CTS pots with a Superpot for the volume both with very even tapers. A 50’s wiring scheme is used in all our guitars as we have found that it minimises treble loss when rolling back the volume.

A set of Bare Knuckle humbuckers are fitted as standard and can be selected from their comprehensive range of pickups.

The JS Standard sounds and feels every bit as good as it looks.
