Custom Shop made John 5 signature model is now in stock!
This is a Custom Shop-made signature model of John 5, known for his work as a guitarist for David Lee Roth, formerly of Van Halen, Marilyn Manson, and Motley Crue.

The 60s-style custom Telecaster-shaped body is made of carefully selected ash and is equipped with a modern C-shaped maple neck/rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets.

This model has a distinctive head shape with a 3:3 peg layout, which is rare for Fender, and the mirror pickguard and chrome hardware create a striking black and silver contrast.

The pickups are a Custom Shop "Twisted" Single-Coil Tele on the front and a Seymour Duncan Hot Rails Tele STHR-1B on the rear, and the Bigsby tremolo unit is equipped with locking tuners.

This is a very rare item with very few used copies in circulation.
Please consider this opportunity!
There are some minor scratches and dents scattered throughout, and the hardware is a little dull.
The overall appearance is slightly used, but playability is good as each part has been maintained and cleaned at our repair center.
