At 11:00 of this “Rig Rundown” with Premier Guitar, Chris Miller, Keith Urban’s Guitar Tech show's us Keith's "Camera" guitar. Originally a Fender Jim Root Tele, the guitar was rebuilt by Joe Glaser. It has a DiMarzio PAF-style humbucker in the bridge, and a pickguard added to cover the hole where the neck humbucker originally was. The neck is from a Clapton Strat, chosen for the larger headstock to clamp the camera on.

Glaser installed the HD camera wire in a channel down the neck to a 16-pin output jack at the end of the guitar, and the live video feed is displayed on the stage backdrop. Because of this additional wired connection, the Camera Guitar is the only electric on a wireless unit.
