John 5

John 5 and Fender have produced a Custom John 5 Telecaster. It’s a “double humbucker rosewood Tele,” according to John 5 in this Premier Guitar Rig Rundown video at (0:23). “The white stripe here from the fender custom Teles and stuff like that back in the ’60s, and you know, [it’s a] great guitar,” John 5 says. The “toggle switch is moved up here for the little movement stuff, and regular Tele headstock, not like my models that I usually have.”

Similar in design to the John 5 Custom Telecaster, the Subsonic Telecaster is “a baritone guitar…it’s tuned down to B,” John 5 says in this interview at (1:04).

“This is called a Flat Head that Fender made,” John 5 demonstrates in this interview at (3:07). “It’s got the nice neck design, and it’s great, you know, nice... Fits the body and it’s very light, and it sounds really, really good. I used to use this a lot during the last tour, but now, I’m just... I have it as a backup.”

“This is one of the first, my first John 5 model,” the Rob Zombie guitarist explains at (4:22). “It has the cool Bigsby on it, twisted Tele, hot rail pickup, and you know, I use it a lot too, and it’s got the cool headstock on here, and you know, this is one of the first ones. This is what I had on the cover of Vertigo and I do a lot of pictures with this guitar. It sounds great. I did all the Marilyn Manson songs with that guitar and [it’s] a great-sounding guitar.”

John 5 talks about his Squier Tele in this promo video for Fender. At :42s John says "it really has become my main telecaster I play all the time."

In this video, John 5 talks about his signature Squier Telecaster, the Squier J5 Telecaster. At 1:40, he says, "The guitar is just like my main Telecaster exactly. I mean, the exact same neck. The pickups are different, but the exact same feel and it sounds incredible. I mean, you can't really tell the difference in the sound."
