There’s a bunch of CZcamsrs copying each other’s empty trendy videos. And there’s Dave who passionately does his own thing.
Long format videos are where you shine Dave.
Ah yes, with Dave you get an Awesome Sonic Adventure and not just some mediocre sound samples.
I worked on the night shift with a David Simpson in a big American Supermarket food store about 30 years ago. A great guy with about 6 kids. Used to bring his Jackson guitar to work (which cost a whole month's salary, even though he was the Night Shift boss). He would play in the employees' bathroom upstairs because he liked the reverb.
Thanks for this review, and the playing was a big treat, interesting sounds and skilled playing!
No joke, the outro solo with the crazy delays is one of the greatest guitar solo's I've ever heard.
YES !!!! ❤

I have been playing guitar in bands since 1969. I have around 40 guitars including many Gibsons and Fenders. I brought a Jet js300 on Dave Simpson's video. I paid £148 for it. I wasn't expecting much due to the price. I thought it may be an OK budget guitar to challenge a squire. How wrong I was. This guitar is great irrespective of price. The neck is one of the best I have played. I would say it is as good as or maybe better than my 1986 USA strat. I have changed the ceramic pickups for an ironsone David Gilmour set and it sounds wonderful. The feel and playability is on par with any £1000 guitar. It blows my classic vibe strat away. Get one now before thay turn into rocking horse shit.
Just ordered one last night!
Im geting the js400 one with hss setup hope it is hot enough for playing some Maiden until I have money for a dimarzio or duncan to put in the bridge.
How do you like the guitar? Looking at the same one.@@mathias6423
@@Bridging_the_Political_Divide You pleased?
It sounds fantastic!! These are the original pickups or did You change it?
Beautiful intro& outro jams - so full of emotion!
90% of today's "Guitar Heroes" are just showing off how fast they can play, how many modes they're familiar with, what masters of technique they are,etc. But rarely do I feel they are touching my heart. You are a true musician ! As you mentioned on your "Is Music still relevant?" rant... and I paraphrase: "If music doesn't communicate feeling, then what is it for?" You certainly touched me deeply with this here in Catalunya! Bon Any!
Love these videos! Keep up the great work. We are all proud of you.
YES!! So happy the old, longer format is back! Jet Guitars, never heard of em before now. Sounds pretty damn good! And i love that seafoam green!
beautiful tone Dave!
man, i live for your jams. perfect therapy for me. thanks Dave. God bless.
After a crappy day so happy to see the long form videos back, cheered me up no end, enormous thanks, love that guitar, 👍
Dave that outro improv was outstandingly beautiful man, you have a great feel for the melodic, loved it .
Luv'f the pure joy and honesty you have with new guitars, regardless of price point. Always inspiring to watch, Bruvv.
Wow some seriously good Christmas gravy flowing on the Outro jam Dave. Definitely one of your best! Wow!
I really like the style of your presentations. Great playing and very informative.
I bought my first ever T style guitar a JET JT300 recently, needed a couple of frets levelling and the strings changing, it now plays brilliantly. Happy days on the return of long vids.
Great video, and your outro jam was fan-freakin'-tastic! Loved the save when the strap came loose also!
Beautiful playing Dave!
Top-notch playing, my man. You've got some serious soul.
And the outro is so very awsome thanks for the trip🎶🎸 journey Dave💯✊🏾
Just brilliant man! I love listening to your jams.
Wow, nice guitar! Nice to see you looking relaxed and not rushed for a video. Two thumbs up!!!
Glad to have you back Dave, Can see the difference in your in your expression when you said you are doing long videos again. Much love from New Mexico hope all is well.
I was never here for the short haul, but long videos are back! I am so happy about that, and it is the right decision. If that's what you do, that's what you do, and whatever it is you want to go with, we will always still be here.
I bought a JS 300 after watching this video and I have to say I'm not disappointed, its a thing of beauty. Thank you Dave for your honest reviews
Happy to see the long videos back Dave !! Stay safe my man
from 33:38 to 34:28 no lyrics needed it made me cry, your solos speak to my soul right there where it all hurts, this is a soul cleansing music. thank you Dave.
I really think this guitar looks stunning. I love the surf green and the dark neck, very eye catching. Plus it sounds brilliant!! Great job Dave another excellent video
The time stamp idea is a FANTASTIC idea! Makes a great channel even better!
Phenomenal playing, Dave.
Thanks for the beautiful intro Dave!
Congrats on the long videos being back 👏🤘awesome guitar 🎸 it sounds amazing 🤩
Christmas came early this year 😍 long videos are back! Makes me very happy!
And the guitar is georgus 🤩
That was a stunning ending, Dave. Massive.
good jam dave love ya man ,,,i sometimes really need to hear your jams calms me and i do need the calm in my life thanks soooo much for being you mouch love ,,,,andy
I watched the full video. Thanks a lot. Love the Jet, but more how you make it alive. You are the insane!
Thank god mate. First time I've listened too you play. Very rarely I come across a player on the same wavelength. Ile be watching regular from now on. Recording and backing tracks is something I struggle with and I think you will inspire me to let myself be me on my guitars love it . One in a million 😊 original
Crikey, respect for your playing in the second part of the vid was just wonderful. Bravo Sir!
You played a beautiful song!!!
Stimulate inspiration. Thank you very much Chief. Cheers from Indonesia.
Love it dave, you have it 🤘
Dave the song at the start is awesome, nice playing pal! That budget guitar sounds great too!
Yes Dave! The return of the long video made my day.
Delicious jams! getting some Gilmour vibes with the outro jam
Good to see and hear you again. Take it easy.
Love your phrasing, beautiful stuff
The feeling that you describe when you fist pick up, then get your hands around the guitar's neck, that moment when you just know it's just right for you is really special. Every guitar, electric or acoustic, every ukulele or bass I have in my small collection have all given and still give me that feeling. It's great to watch how you try to describe that feeling Dave.
That outro jam is sick Dave :) nice fuzzy tones
Ordered one yesterday after watching this fantastic video from you. I received it today and it's still as you said, in perfect condition and this is now a year and a half later, it's incredible! I so greatly appreciate that you share, thank you so very much. just love your music to no end! When one spends over four decades among the maple forests you have an infinite bond towards this wood, I feel, and this truly is lovely. Thank you again for being you! ......Buckmartin ........
Just ordered one cheers Dave great honest review!🙂👍🎸
Great video Dave what a Awsome Dave jam my ears are addict on your intro,s thanks for you inspration 🤘✊🏾
Playing here is stupendous Dave. Can tell you dug that guitar !
Amazing playing, brother 👏
I'm pretty certain that was made at the Grand Reward factory in China, where they made Squier Classic Vibes and Fender Modern Players for years.
Grand Reward's "house brand" is FARIDA.
Without China and other far east economies ..this kind of thing would not be possible. period
thanks for the factory ID -- I bet your right. - these kind of seem like a fender clasic vibe with a better Quality Roasted Neck which is the Big feature -- I Like them and the price.
Insanely good playing. Truly inspiring. Thank you 🙏
Thank you. :)
Hugely talented guitarist- his feel and emotion remind me a lot of Dave Gilmour. The JET strat sounds really good as well. Nice one Dave!
Yeah I am buying this guitar for playing Gilmour stuff this video showed this will be no problem. I hope the humbucker on the js400 I am buying is hot enough to play some hard rock like Iron Maiden as well.
Oh sick! I'm glad you like it. I've got one of the shell pink HSS models in my Christmas stocking and I can't wait to get at it! I'm glad you like it :-) reassured me that I made the right choice as a present instruction!
That outro was amazing man. I'd love to see the trio do some videos for you tube like that.
Thanks for the video. I have left comments before.
I own the same sea foam Jet JS300.
Just awesome to sit on my front porch on a beautiful June day in Chicago, listening to you play guitar.
Thanks Dave.
Congrats Dave & Queenie on your new sticks, looks good on ya Bruh.👏🔥
Thank You Dave, the outro solo is cosmic! You give spirit to this green JS 😊 Well I had to buy a same one, and it is really a fine guitar. Thank You! Keep playing!
I just ordered myself the JS400, these Jet guitars are the bees knees from everything I’ve seen and heard…and it all started with you good sir!! Watching you jam has inspired me to dive in !! Thanks for all your awesome videos , amazing playing , and for just being your original self. Respect 🫡
I was looking at Jet Guitars and the burst really caught my eye. Unfortunately not available here in the states yet. Excellent tones Shoeless and thanks for bringing back the long videos.
Fantastic video you have made.
Just found this great vid today. You’re the real deal Dave! That outro immediately reminded me of Comfortably Numb!😁
Congrats, enjoy it.
Nice colour by the way!
Loved the longer video, and the recommendation, sounds ace, as do all guitars in the hand of a meastro
Forgot to add I’m glad your back to longer videos 😎👍
That jam today was just so beautiful! Absolutely, loved that. Pretty impressive guitar too. It doesn’t even look like a budget guitar. Sea foam green usually doesn’t look quite right on cheaper guitars, but I think they did an amazing job with the color. Definitely looks like a much more expensive axe. Getting a baked maple neck at that price point is insane. That is really impressive! Sounds absolutely immense too.
Just bought the sunburst one. Wow great guitar. Can,t believe these sell for that price. Its a keeper. 👍 this video helped me decide. Thanks so much and amazing playing by the way.
Bought one as my first ever guitar a month ago from GAK in this exact colour, albeit the HSS pickup version. And a 2nd hand Mustang GT100 from eBay for £175. Loving learning so far. I also strapped on some new slinky strings as soon as it arrived.
That first part of the outro jam is album material. Particularly beautiful.
you know is a good day when dave upload a long video :)
I am also in love! I got the JS400 the one with humbucker in the bridge in yellow. I absolutely love it.
I will never skip your intro playing Dave and this one was buietiful to
My god, i find no words... Your playing ist wunderful !!! ❤
Thank you for this review I’m in the USA and have been awaiting my seafoam green is400 same except hss and 2 point trem, I have to say your playing inspired me so much my man! I’m in awe of your heart felt playing! You are a true genius Dave and never let anyone tell you different! Much love my brother
Hey man I can only get the js400 in my country, is it also good ? Is the Humbucker hot enough to play some Iron Maiden on or what do you think of the guitar?
Nice concert Dave!
Thanks so much Dave, I just got my JS300 and after lowering the action a touch, I can't believe how good it sounds and plays, amazing for 160 quid!
Another fantastic video from Dave! 👍🏻🎸 great guitars for the money, especially in the right hands, Dave’s hands 👌👏🏻
Great video mate.
Marvelous stuff, mate....
🤙🎸🤙🎸🤙🎸
That outro was immense. Immense I tell you!
the outra jam.. OMFG. Id kill to see you live. Amazing. Thank you!
I also just got the guitar an hour after writing the comment in sparkle gold, sounds amazing, needed a setup, just now finished polishing the frets. I tought if that guitar inspired tou do that outro, then i gotta have it, bf deal for 140gbp here in Romania! Thank you!
Love your expression in playing your own emotion and life imprint shines and flows through your soul....
Too many people play covers to much no emotion or life expression..
I suffer from ms and bipolar for over 25 years and played guitar for 22 years and your music of self feeling vibes and helps me loads all the best Dave happy Christmas
I Love your playing Dave but I'm just not always in the mood to listen to a guitar solo - but always eager to hear your thoughts. Thanks for the time-stamping.
I ordered one of these after watching this vid.
It arrived today and I’m very impressed.
👌
Great playing and guitar. I wish I could get that Jet in Texas!
Beautiful soloing sir. ❤🎉
Yes to the return of the long video , Dave - the short ones are great but they always felt like they were over too soon (but this is just me ) Anyway , cheers Dave!
Only recently found your channel. Bloody great stuff Dave! You're so inspiring. Think I'm going to go for one of these, to match my black Squire Jag. Also have a Revelation strat, which is lovely to. ☺. Thanks.
That green guitar suits you so well . I can really hear the connection between you and the guitar .
Dave you made me cry. For me this was Buckethead x Gilmour. Thank you for this music 🙏
Great intro very nice indeed bud 😎💯🤘🏼
Love the tone of that guitar
Thank you Dave, I discovered this brand thanks to you and now I have a JS400 which I think is great.
Hi Dave. Well after watching your video of this guitar decided to take the plunge and order one. They are sold out on every site but as luck had it I had an email saying one was in stock so ordered it straight away. Can't wait to try it out mate. Thanks for sharing your opinion on this guitar. You are a very talented young man. Top man 👍
Dave I just received my jet guitar on your recommendation thank you great budget guitar.
I have one like this that I made a Fender. As I rode my bike I kept seeing bridge girders and then I called it "Bridge Green" . great playing.
I’m in Australia and even over here we’re spoilt with ‘budget’ guitars, I mean I’ve never heard of Jet guitars, but I can hear you playing and it’s bloody incredible.
Artist ST62. Great piece of wood at a very cool price for us having to shop in Aussie $$$$. Shipping is the biggest ball breaker I always find for the overseas gear..👍
I bought a black one of these about six months ago and pretty much fell in love with it too.
This review makes me feel pretty good now that I have the opinion of a really good guitarist to back it up .
I wasn't overly keen on the pickups and swapped them out. But everything else is unreal for the price
Same, I got one a day ago, ordered new pups within an hour, they are more than fine for the price, but some higher end pups will hopefully make this instrument really sing.
This video was the review that introduced me to Jet Guitars. After weeks of pondering, I finally pulled the trigger, I just received it 10 minutes ago. After tuning it I did my normal checks/setup, and I am amazed to say I don’t have to touch a thing. The intonation was set up perfectly, string height set up perfectly, pickup height set up perfectly. This guitar blows the doors off some “higher” end guitars I’ve played and owned over the years. It sounds great, looks great, feels great. If I were to knit-pick, about the only thing I could say is the fret ends aren’t “rolled”, however there is no sprout, and no real sharpness to speak of. The frets feel great. Obviously, this is an easy thing to address, but not necessary in the slightest…again it’s a knit-picky thing. A revisit of THIS video was first on my to-do’s after giving it a go. Thank you Dave for the honest review. And for all of your honest reviews for that matter.
For others on the fence, I say pull the trigger. It’s a great guitar for the money, and perhaps the same could be said if it was $100 or $300 more. I’m far from a beginner, and I’m quite pleased. If this is how they all come out of the box, a beginner would have nothing to fear. Seriously a great guitar. The craftsmanship is just otherworldly…especially at the price point.
PS: I even bought the same color, Dave 😂
