Equipboard's gear archive is collaboratively built and maintained by fellow music lovers like yourself. Anyone can submit gear and equipment to artists. Joining Equipboard also allows you to create your own list to track the gear you have and want, and follow artists like Sturgill Simpson to never miss gear updates.
In 2017 Simpson's longtime lead guitarist Laur Joamets left his band. Since then, Sturgill has been playing lead/electric guitar at his shows.
Source video shows Sturgil playing his white tele live. He's also been seen playing at least two other Teles, as seen in these videos (first and second video might be the same guitar, with the decal added sometime between 2011 and 2017): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qsrsrOB0zNQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aU19dWpeWTg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P58tvWhP8MM

Most, if not all, of the submissions for Sturgill Simpson on this page are actually for Laur Joamets, Sturgill's lead player.
The quote is attributed to Laur, not Sturgill.
The original source cited refers to Laur Joamets, but Sturgill does in fact play a Tele as one of his electric guitars. Updated the source to a video of Sturgill playing his Tele: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M65ev-vU1VE
