JET Guitars Steals the Spotlight at UK Guitar Show 2026

The UK Guitar Show marked its 10th anniversary last weekend at Cranmore Park, Solihull and it felt like a milestone. Both days sold out, footfall was strong from open to close, and the energy across the hall was exactly what you want from a live guitar event.

We brought a huge selection of JET models, from the best-selling JS-300 and JS-400, the ever popular JT-300, through to the new JJ-300 P90 offsets and the JS-800 for players chasing that full 80s, double-locking trem experience. The stunning new JS-450 in Blue Black Burst drew attention all weekend, while the JS-45 Elite in Fireburst sat firmly at the top end and looked every bit the flagship in person.

The response across the stand was strong throughout. The new JET Mini Bass sparked a lot of interest, pulling in players from well beyond the usual bass crowd. It was great to see so many familiar faces returning to the brand, alongside a noticeable wave of younger players discovering JET for the first time, always a good sign for where things are heading.

The booth itself was packed all weekend. At points it was so busy with players trying guitars that we found ourselves standing out in the walkway, just watching it all unfold. Not a bad problem to have.

We also spent time with several creators across the weekend, capturing content that will be landing across channels soon.

More broadly, the mood at the show said a lot. A sold-out UK guitar event, a wide mix of players, and genuine engagement with the instruments.

In a market that spends a lot of time talking about online growth, weekends like this are a useful reminder. Guitars are still bought with hands, not just clicks.

You cannot replicate that moment. First chord, first reaction, through a screen.
