Devin Townsend's Guitars
In the live performance of "March Of The Poozers" at the Royal Albert Hall, Devin Townsend plays his signature Framus Devin Townsend V guitar. Known for its exceptional quality and unique design, this guitar features a 28" scale and is tuned F# B F# B F# B D#. This distinctive setup, combined with elements like Evertune and EMG pickups, showcases Townsend's innovative approach to music.

"I’ve decided on Framus as my main guitars for DTP. They’re a German company and they also do Warwick basses.
"They’re sort of throwback-looking guitars with lights and things like that to bring them into the modern world. A 335-like shape [Mayfield] or big Les Paul kind of shape [1974]. They’re all sort of customised to what I’m looking for.
"I have so many different styles of music with different touring bands. DTP being the primary one. I use different guitars for different applications. For example, if I’m doing the Casualties Of Cool stuff I work with the Fender or Hansen, but Framus is just incredible stuff. I love it, I really do."
At 17:21, Devin shows off his ESP Ronnie Wood signature Telecaster. It's pickups were replaced with an 81 in the bridge and a dummy in the neck. The pickguard was removed and replaced with an electrical board.
It was eventually modded with an actual EMG neck pickup (unsure of the model) mounted with a pickup ring, rather than the board. As seen in this video.
Devin Townsend tours with two prototypes of his signature Framus Stormbender. These Stormbenders feature an ebony fretboard, mahogany body, maple neck, 25.5” scale, and are tricked out with internal LEDs, Townsend’s signature Fishman Transcendence pickups, and an Evertune bridge.
