Squier AS John 5 Tele RW FG Frost Gold

The Squier J5 Telecaster 6-String Electric Guitar Frost Gold is an Artist Model built for Fender fanatic John 5 and this signature model is a double-bound custom instrument based on his oft-modded workhorse Telecaster.

Features include the guitarist’s distinctive black-and-chrome look, a double-bound Alder body with a gloss black polyester finish, polished stainless steel pickguard and chrome hardware, a one-piece Maple neck with a modern ‘C’ profile, a matching black Telecaster headstock and a 12” radius Rosewood fingerboard with 22 medium jumbo frets.

The custom-designed humbucking pickups use a special dual-volume setup with the bridge pickup control in the front position and the neck pickup control in the back position. Rapidly toggling the upper-bout three-way pickup switch gives the signature ‘kill’ effect by turning off the neck pickup volume and leaving the bridge control full up.
