JET JS-400 HSS Olympic White Guitar and Amp Pack

Beginner Rock Pack – JET JS-400 HSS Olympic White + Fender Frontman 10G + 3m Lead

If you or your youngster is into rock, hard rock or heavy metal, this electric guitar and amp package is a much better fit than a standard three–single-coil setup. This bundle pairs the JET Guitars JS-400 Electric Guitar HSS Roasted MN in Olympic White with a Fender Frontman 10G practice amp and a quality 3 metre guitar lead, giving you everything you need to plug in and start playing heavier styles straight away.

At the heart of this pack is the HSS pickup configuration on the JS-400: two ceramic single-coil pickups in the neck and middle positions, and a higher-output ceramic humbucker at the bridge. For rock and metal, that bridge humbucker is the hero. It delivers a thicker, tighter low end, stronger mids and more output than a standard single-coil, which means:

• More punch and sustain for big power chords and palm-muted riffs
• Less unwanted noise and hum when using high-gain amp settings
• A smoother, more controlled top end that won’t get ice-picky with distortion

Plugged into the Fender Frontman 10G, you can really hear the advantage of HSS for heavier music. Kick in the amp’s overdrive switch, turn up the gain, and the bridge humbucker gives you the kind of saturated crunch and lead sustain that classic rock, hard rock and metal tones are built on. When you want to clean things up for intros, verses or funkier rhythm parts, just flip to the neck or middle single-coils for that bell-like Strat-style clarity. This flexibility is why so many rock players prefer HSS – you get the best of both worlds in one guitar.

The guitar itself is built to encourage long practice sessions. The basswood body in a familiar JS (Strat-style) double-cut shape keeps things light and comfortable, while the Canadian Roasted Maple neck and fingerboard add stability, resonance and a smooth, fast feel. A Modern “C” neck profile, 9.5" fingerboard radius and 22 frets mean it’s easy to move from open chords to fast pentatonic licks as your playing develops.

The Fender Frontman 10G provides 10 watts of solid-state power through a 6" Fender Special Design speaker, with straightforward controls: gain, overdrive select switch, volume, treble and bass. For rock and metal, this makes it simple to dial in a tight, driven sound at sensible bedroom volumes. The 1/8" aux input lets you jam along with your favourite bands or backing tracks, and the 1/8" headphone output is ideal for late-night practice sessions where you still want aggressive tone without the noise.

The included 3 metre guitar lead lets you hook everything up with enough length to move comfortably around your room or rehearsal space. For players on the Gold Coast and across Australia, this JS-400 HSS and Frontman 10G bundle is a brilliant way to start off on the right foot if your main goal is rock and heavier styles, rather than just clean pop tones.

At Guitar World Gold Coast, we recommend this pack to beginners, teens and adult learners who love bands with crunchy rhythms and big high-gain sounds, but still want access to sparkling cleans when they need them. The HSS layout means your first guitar will continue to serve you well as your technique and musical tastes develop.
