No longer available at zZounds
An updated version of the classic '70s Tele, this guitar features 3 Enforcer humbucker pickups for screaming tone and a chrome pickguard for slick looks.

What's special about this item?

Feature: What it does:
Enforcer "Wide Range" humbucker Clear, detailed and "fat" tone with higher output
Chrome pickguard and hardware Modern, hot-rodded style appointments
Rosewood fretboard Open, warm tone and smooth playing feel
Maple neck Bright tone, full sustain and strength

A millennial update of a timeless classic. Inspired by one of Fender's favorite uber-shredders, John 5, the J5 Triple Tele Deluxe puts a fiendishly ferocious spin on the always-popular '70s-era Tele Deluxe design.

A study in black and chrome, the J5 put three screaming hot high-output Enforcer humbucking pickups in a sleek black double-bound body adorned with a vintage tremolo bridge and a flash chrome pickguard guaranteed to blind 'em all the way in the back row.

I love this guitar! It sounds great! Easy to play and very versatile. It does clean and dirty equally well. My only complaint is the toggle switch can be a little flimsy. The top pickup setting wouldn't work, but that was an easy fix. Great neck, but fairly heavy. Tons of sustain.

Musical Style:

If there is a guitar in it I probably like it.
