"A wonderful guitar for any true Sevendust fan! We took the classic Dean Z shape and brought it to a whole new level of excellence for John Connolly. Featuring a mahogany body with flame maple top and a set, D-shaped neck this axe is ready to rock! An ebony fingerboard, pearl inlays, Grover tuners and Tune-O-Matic bridge all come standard on the JCZ. This guitar also comes equipped with DMT Series humbuckers to balance out tonal beauty with the already stunning looks! Get your wings today!"

John Connolly, the guitarist for Sevendust, has confirmed his use of the Squier Classic Vibe Baritone Custom Telecaster in an Instagram post. He stated, "The black one was fitted with Seymour Duncan quarter pounders and it ended up tracking the first two singles to be released on the new Sevendust record. The tobacco burst one was fitted with Seymour Duncan bg1400’s and is currently my drop G guitar, and will be seen in our third single/video from 'One'." Connolly further mentioned that after extensive use over four months, these guitars have become his most frequently used instruments, and fans can expect to see them on tour.
