Fender Awakens the John 5 Ghost Telecaster!
Fender pull out every last one of the proverbial stops with this breathtaking John 5 signature edition of the humble telecaster. Bearing a hauntingly beautiful look, only 600 of the singular Fender John 5 Ghost Telecaster will ever be made so catch one while you can.
The Ghost Telecaster: A Tele Like No Other
The supernatural sound and spectral design makes it immediately clear that the Ghost Telecaster is no standard Fender offering. The alder body as well as the maple fretboard have been dipped in Arctic White before being outlined in high-contrast, red binding - in fact, even the nut, the washers of the locking machine heads and the open-faced pickups are in red. The pup-loadout has then been framed in a one-piece mirrored pickguard, which has been merged with the control plate to remove any sharp edges that might hinder your playing. And when it comes to sound, you're getting the satisfying shriek of two DiMarzio D Activator humbuckers teamed up with a cheeky arcade-style kill switch to support rapid stutter effects.
The Fender John 5: Neck-Breaking Bluegrass to Razor Sharp Arpeggios
John 5 is notorious for being able to hit every mark, whether he's wrapping his fingers around metal, country, rock or classical music, there seems to be nothing his talent can't touch. As such, the American-born virtuoso has worked with all of the big names: David Lee Roth, Alice Cooper, Rob Zombie, and naturally his recent stint with Mötley Crüe. The Ghost Telecaster serves as a tribute to his exceptional adaptability and singular style. If you're a die-hard John 5 fan but don't quite have the budget to bag the signature Ghost, then here's a few other treats: the Fender John 5 Leather Strap, the Fender John 5 Instrument Cable and a pack of six Fender John 5 351 Celluloid plectrums.
