The Telecaster According to John 5: An Uncompromising Signature Model
The John 5 Phantom Telecaster revisits one of the most iconic silhouettes in electric guitar through the vision of a musician known for his virtuosic playing and his dedication to the Telecaster. This Signature Artist version retains the Tele's compact format, crisp attack and familiar ergonomics, while taking it into a much more aggressive territory.
Its all-Black aesthetic, complemented by a matching headstock veneer, clearly reveals its color. Behind its dark, streamlined look lies a guitar designed for the stage, with components selected to withstand powerful rhythm playing, fast solos and intensive use of the vibrato.
