First introduced by Fender in 2003 the John 5 signature guiatr is a classic telecaster but with some mods. The most noticeable of which is the custom three-on-a-side headstock - it looks elongated because it uses the Tele XII shape. The body is a black double-bound and made from premium ash, The neck is maple with rosewood fingerboard (If you look closely at the dot inlays at the 12th fret they are slighly more narrow spaced than standard), The current pickups on this model are a Fender USA Enforcer humbucker at the bridge and a Fender Custom Shop Twisted Tele at the neck with the usual master volume and tone control. The pickup selector switch is located in the Les Paul position at the top of the guitar.
