Jack White confirmed his use of the Fender "Broadcaster" Telecaster in an Instagram post where he expressed gratitude to Brad Paisley for allowing him to play his original Broadcaster.

Bought by Eric Clapton as a collectors item in 1986.

"Before the Telecaster and Nocaster, there was the Broadcaster. These guitars had a few interesting characteristics like no channel rout and a blend knob instead of a tone knob. The blend disappeared around 1952. Plus, you get flathead screws all the way around, including the truss rod!

This example is one of the lightest Broadcaster guitars I have ever played. I am lucky to own it, and is one of my cherished Fender guitars in my collection." On his website.

Neil Young bought the Broadcaster in the early 70's which was used for the 'Tonight's the Night' live tour and has recently been seen used on the 'Tonight show with Jimmy Fallon'.

Joe Walsh's wife got him this guitar. He talked about his wife and how his wife is generous in this interiew for Guitar World.

“She bought me a ’58 Goldtop, and she found me a ’53 Broadcaster, from before Fender named it Telecaster. And a ’57 Gretsch 6120 like the one I gave Pete! So I’m getting some vintage guitars on the wall.”

In an Instagram post, Jack White states that he played an original Fender "Broadcaster" Telecaster owned by Brad Paisley.

"It’s a long story, but the short version is my wife bought it at an auction, the same auction I was trying to register to bid on this guitar. Unbeknownst to me, she had already registered to bid on it for me as a gift. I was watching the bidding, and said, ‘Well it’s gone, it’s gone under some collector’s bed for the rest of time.’ And my wife comes in and goes, ‘I just bought you Waylon’s guitar.’ It was a Christmas gift. I literally fell on my knees and cried like a little baby. It was the most unbelievable thing that every happened to me. I’ve had it for quite a few years. We got it from Reggie Young, who was touring with The Highwaymen, and by all accounts, Waylon came in one day and gave it to him. It’s a very heavy guitar. It’s a 1950 Fender Broadcaster. He said, ‘Hoss I want you to have this guitar. It’s too heavy.’ So Reggie had it for 25 years and decided it was time to sell it. He didn’t know I bought it. He was the first guy I called and introduced myself to him. I said ‘I own this guitar. Anytime you want it, come over and get it.’ He’s borrowed it for Waylon Jennings days, festivals he plays, that sort of things."

(...) below: This is a very good Guitar Player magazine issue from July 2006. In this issue, Tom is asked and talks about his gear and his guitars. From the interview, in the quote on the right, he reveals his thoughts and feelings about his recording studio secret weapon, his Epiphone Casino. Also included in the issue is an informative and detailed interview with Mike Campbell about his tone and gear too. That's Mike's Fender Broadcaster up at the top of the magazine cover!

Campbell himself mentions the guitar in this September 1999 "Spotlight on a Heartbreaker" interview from the official Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers website.

20) Tere in TX, Roxanne in NY, Ron in MA, Tim in FL, Jeremy, Cecilyn in CA, Daria and Christine asked: How many guitars do you have and what are your favorites in your collection? I'm ashamed that I don't know exactly how many guitars I have. I just got three this month ---- near 200 I guess. I'm starting to give some of them away --- no room. My favorite is my Fender Broadcaster......I'm designing one right now with a guy from Detroit. It will be a cross between Garcia's tiger and a Fender Jaguar. 31) Mike asked: Is the Telecaster you've been playing on this tour the Broadcaster that you used to play in the '70s and '80s? If it is, what made you decide to take a guitar of that value back out on the road? I brought the Broadcaster out for two reasons: It sounds amazing and I figured why not share the tone?

On pg. 4 of this interview in Tone Quest Report Vol. 9 #5, published March 2008, Mike Campbell states the following about acquiring the Broadcaster:

The first time I saw you live in the ‘70s, you were playing a goldtop Les Paul with the P90 covers removed and the pink coils exposed… It sounded great.

I love that guitar, and it was my first Gibson. When we were in the studio for the first album and we just had the Fenders, I thought, “I’ve gotta have a Gibson,” so I went into a store, and I actually got the Gibson and the Broadcaster the same day. I got the goldtop because I wanted something that I could play solos on – something with more sustain. As far as the Broadcaster, I didn’t know what I was getting – I thought it was just a Telecaster. These are amazing guitars that we’ve used on just about every record. So really, my original ’64 Strat, the goldtop and the Broadcaster are our recording gold. Anytime that we needed a sound we could go to those guitars. Even to this day, you just pull them out and get the job done.

Among Carlton's first guitars, as stated in the February 1977 Guitar Player interview "Larry Carlton" by Steven Rosen.

Larry's first acoustic instrument was "a nameless box with strings a half-inch off the fretboard;" his first electric axe was a Fender Broadcaster purchased in 1955. This was traded for a Telecaster, then a Stratocaster, and finally a Gibson ES-175. Later he bought another Tele and used it as a backup.

"It’s a long story, but the short version is my wife bought it at an auction, the same auction I was trying to register to bid on this guitar. Unbeknownst to me, she had already registered to bid on it for me as a gift. I was watching the bidding, and said, ‘Well it’s gone, it’s gone under some collector’s bed for the rest of time.’ And my wife comes in and goes, ‘I just bought you Waylon’s guitar.’ It was a Christmas gift. I literally fell on my knees and cried like a little baby. It was the most unbelievable thing that every happened to me. I’ve had it for quite a few years.

From an interview with Roy Clark conducted by Vintage Guitar magazine and published in their August (as well the October) 1999 issue.

‘“ Interviewer: The reason I brought up your impulse buyer past is the photos in your book indicate it also may also have been applicable to your guitar purchases. For example, there’s a picture of you in 1951 with what appears to be a new Fender electric guitar.

Roy Clark: That was a Broadcaster. When the Fender guitar came out around ’51, it was like nothing you’d ever had your hands on. Back then, I could not afford those high-dollar Gibsons, and most of the guitars I played had action a quarter of an inch high, which is good for building up chops, but not for continuous playing. I was playing at a little club in Washington, D.C., and a Marine from California who’d just been discharged walked in with a Fender guitar and wanted to sit in with us.

Interviewer: Had you ever seen a solidbody electric before?

Roy Clark: No, I’d seen pictures of Merle Travis’ Bigsby, but I’d never looked at one closely. That Marine let me play his Fender, and my Lord, when I put my hands on it, it practically played itself! They may have been all the rage in California, but I don’t think there were any in music stores in D.C. at the time. I won a five-string banjo contest later on, and part of the prize was $500, so I bought a Broadcaster.”
