John Spinks

John Spinks, celebrated guitarist of The Outfield, is seen using a Fender Telecaster in performance photos on Myspace. He played this guitar in the band’s hit song "Your Love" and numerous other tracks.

On October 18, 2010, during rehearsals for 'California Sun,' John Spinks used a Mesa/Boogie Express 5:25 1x12 Combo Amp. A sunburst Les Paul was also pictured alongside the amp, highlighting his setup in the studio.

On Since You’ve Been Gone he uses a Gibson ES-335 or 345 but I think it’s a 335. He also had a black one with the Outfield logo on it

John Spinks talks guitars: The original was made at Chandler Guitars in London 1985. From what I remember Roger Giffin was involved with the build. It was custom built and originally had two pickups with a tremolo system with locking nuts at the neck end. Having to unfasten the locking system (to tune it) used to drive me crazy so I eventually had the tremolo and locking system removed. After we finished the recording of 'Play Deep', I used the guitar on the first tours, but as I remember, Bill Wittman said I was crazy to take such a great recording guitar on the road. (so I stopped) From the Bangin' tours onwards I used a 'Tobacco Sunburst Schecter', followed by an array of Gibson Flying V's (my black and white 'V' being my favourite). I've continued to use the original Schecter on all our recordings since Play Deep. Although I do tend to sometimes swap with some of the newer guitars I own just to mix things up. 'The Black Schecter' easily has the most recognizable sound.

In a photo provided by Brent Bitner on Pinterest, John Spinks of The Outfield is seen with a Rickenbacker 360 Electric Guitar in a recording studio. This Rickenbacker was used during the recording sessions for the albums "Play Deep," "Bagin," "Voices of Babylon," and "Rockeye."
